The player who is nicknamed the queen of Korean volleyball dancing was about to block when Megawati smashed.

Megawati's shot resulted in points and gave the Red Sparks a 20-19 lead. 

The second moment occurred in the third set, when Megawati's shot hit Hillstate's number 14 player, Yang Hyo Jin, in the face. 

Megawati's smash this time was faster than her previous headshot. Even Yang Hyo Jin grimaced in pain. 

Hyo Jin covered her face and stroked her face in reaction to Megawati's hard blow. 

Megawati's additional 31 points made her even more established as the main points earner for the Red Sparks. 

Now Megawati has scored 559 points, surpassing her idol, Kim Yeon Kyung from Pink Spiders who scored 552 points.
