NHK's documentary "Professional Work Style," which follows volleyball player Yuki Ishikawa, will air on June 30th at 7:57 pm. The program follows Ishikawa, who served as captain of the Japanese men's volleyball team at the 2024 Paris Olympics, as he plays for Perugia, a prestigious club team in Italy's Serie A, on his own.
The program closely follows Ishikawa's path to victory in the European Champions League, a feat that has yet to be achieved by a Japanese player in the world of men's volleyball. It reveals the unknown struggles and unexpected true face of Ishikawa, who has thrown himself into a harsh environment where representatives from around the world compete fiercely.
Ishikawa commented, "The film followed me closely during my life in Italy for two months. I hope you will enjoy seeing how I approach volleyball in Perugia!"
