Seo Kyung-deok: “The Rising Sun Flag Appears Again

at the Paris Olympics We Must Take Action to Prevent It from Happening Again”

Japanese fans cheering with the Rising Sun Flag at the World Baseball Classic (WBC) in March last year.

On the 3rd (local time), the Japanese Rising Sun Flag cheering appeared again at the 2024 Paris Olympics men's road cycling race, causing controversy. A Japanese man who had set up a spot at the entrance of Montmartre Hill in Paris cheered on his country's athletes with the Rising Sun Flag.

Professor Seo Kyung-deok of Sungshin Women's University said on the 5th, "This is the second time since the Rising Sun Flag cheering appeared at the men's road cycling race at the last Tokyo Olympics," and "I immediately sent a protest email to the IOC," and "In this protest email, I explained that 'the Rising Sun Flag is a flag that Japan displayed at the forefront when invading Asian countries in the past, and it symbolizes Japan's militarism and imperialism. '"

He added, "'Reusing the Rising Sun Flag is tantamount to denying the history of Japan's past wars of aggression, and it reminds Asians of the horrors of war once again. '" He emphasized, "The IOC must properly recognize the historical background of the Rising Sun Flag and take absolute measures to ensure that the Rising Sun Flag cheering is never repeated during the remaining Paris Olympics."

Professor Seo said, “I gave the example of FIFA immediately banning the Japanese cheering squad from cheering with the Rising Sun Flag at the last Qatar World Cup,” and added, “I will do my best to eliminate the Rising Sun Flag cheering from the Olympics, following the World Cup.”

Meanwhile, Professor Seo has been at the forefront of eliminating the Rising Sun Flag from international sporting events, such as sending an email to the IOC ahead of the opening of the Paris Olympics asking them to “stop cheering with the Rising Sun Flag.” 바카라게임

'Woo Sang-hyeok's rival' Tamberi, hospitalized high fever 2 days before competition

Gianmarco Tamberi (32), a strong contender for the men's high jump title, was taken to the hospital two days before the competition.

According to the BBC on the 5th, Tamberi was taken to the hospital with a high fever of 38.8 degrees Celsius due to suspected kidney stones.

Tamberi posted a photo of himself lying in the hospital on social media and said, "I can't believe it. I felt a stabbing pain in my side."

Tambury is a strong contender for the men's high jump title along with South Korea's Woo Sang-hyeok, Mutaz Essa Barsim (Qatar), Juvon Harrison (USA), and Hamish Kerr (New Zealand). Tambury shared the title with Barsim at the 2021 Tokyo Olympics.

The men's high jump preliminaries will begin at 5:05 p.m. (Korean time) on the 7th, and the finals will be held at 2:05 a.m. on the 11th. The top 12 out of 31 who participated in the preliminaries will advance to the finals.

However, Tambury expressed his determination to participate in the competition.

"I don't know how I will get to the stadium. One thing is for sure, I will be there and give my soul to the last jump, no matter what my condition is," Tambury said. 바카라게임

“I like the American athlete who looks like DiCaprio”

Congratulates Kim Woo-jin, the archery gold medalist, after defeat

Kim Woo-jin of Korea and Brady Ellison of the United States are holding hands and cheering in the gold medal match of the men's individual archery event at the 2024 Paris Olympics.

In the men's individual archery event at the 2024 Paris Olympics, Kim Woo-jin (32, Cheongju City Hall) won the gold medal, and his final opponent Brady Ellison (35, USA) is a hot topic. Not only is his skill good enough to have a close match with Kim Woo-jin, but he also showed his sincere congratulations to his opponent after the match.

On the 4th (local time), in the final of the men's individual archery event held at Invalides in Paris, France, Kim Woo-jin tied Ellison with a set score of 5-5 (27-29, 28-24, 27-29, 29-27, 30-30) and won the one-shot shoot-off by 4.9mm. In the case of a tie in the shoot-off, the player with the shorter distance from the arrow to the center of the target wins. Kim Woo-jin's arrow was 55.8mm from the center, closer than Ellison's 60.7mm.

Ellison has a deep connection with the Korean archery team. He has participated in five consecutive Olympics since the 2008 Beijing Olympics, and defeated Korea in the semifinals of the men's archery team event at the 2012 London Olympics. At that time, Korea lost to the United States and won the bronze medal. Ellison also earned the nickname "Thai Archer Killer."

After the winner of the men's individual archery event was decided, Ellison was seen sincerely congratulating Kim Woo-jin. Ellison held Kim Woo-jin's hand and cheered. The two hugged. Afterwards, the coaches of each country, Kim Woo-jin, and Ellison all held hands and cheered. They raised their hands and expressed their gratitude to the camera and the audience.

Ellison's appearance was broadcast live. Afterwards, online communities were flooded with praise for Ellison. Netizens responded with comments such as, "He looks like Leonardo DiCaprio," "He's so cool, I hope he comes to the next competition too," "I like Ellison. It's cool how he respects his opponents until the end," and "His sportsmanship is amazing."

“Woojin Kim is an amazing player,” Ellison said at a press conference after the awards ceremony. According to an interview posted on MyInfo, the official information provider website of the organizing committee of the Games, when asked if he thought Woojin Kim was the greatest recurve archer of all time, Ellison replied, “He won the gold medal and beat me. I guess I was just lucky.” He

continued, “If we both pick up our bows, we’ll be one of the greatest duos in archery history.” He added, “When you watch him on the practice range, you can see what he’s going to do,” and added, “It was a match I’ve dreamed of. We shot like champions. I think I’ll play (with Woojin Kim) again at the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics.” 바카라사이트

The Loser's Disgrace Georgia Player Steps on Buddha Judo Hero's Vital Spot

A Georgian judoka has been given a severe punishment for his unsportsmanlike conduct toward French judo hero Teddy Riner at the 2024 Paris Olympics.

Georgia's Guram Tusishvili was given a red card and disqualified for "conduct against the spirit of judo" during the quarterfinals of the men's +100kg class at the Champ de Mars in Paris, France on the 2nd (Korean time). Tusishvili, who

lost to Riner that day, was seen lying on the ground and extending his leg toward Riner's vital spot, before knocking Riner to the ground and putting his hand on his face.

The International Judo Federation (IJF) took immediate action in response to Tusishvili's outrageous behavior.

After the match, the disciplinary committee announced that Tusishvili would be suspended from the mixed team event on the 3rd. Tusishvili

was also suspended from all international judo competitions until the IJF conducted a further investigation and made a final decision. Meanwhile,

Riner, who had suffered a shocking incident, defeated Korea's Kim Min-jong in the final and won his fourth Olympic gold medal. After the match, he expressed his intention to compete in the 2028 Los Angeles (LA) Olympics as well. 바카라사이트

Belgian Triathlon withdraws just before the race “Infected after swimming in the Sein

“Infected after swimming in the Seine”

After participating in the individual event, he claimed to have been infected with E. coli The problem of water pollution in the Seine River continues, with the relay team forfeiting training and changing the schedule for the event

While the '2024 Paris Olympics' are in full swing, the Seine River, where the outdoor swimming competition will be held, is still considered a headache. Triathletes who competed in the Seine River are complaining of illness.

Foreign media outlets such as the BBC reported on the 5th (Korean time) that the Belgian Olympic Committee announced that "Claire Michel, a female triathlete who swam in the Seine River on the 4th, is feeling unwell and will withdraw from the mixed relay event."

Michel had previously competed in the women's individual triathlon event on the 31st of last month.

The Belgian committee did not provide a detailed explanation of Michelle's condition, but claimed that she was infected with E. coli and that the problem was due to water quality issues in the river.

Earlier on the 3rd, Swiss team officials also announced, "Triathlete Adrien Briford, who swam in the Seine, has contracted an infectious disease."

At the time, the Swiss side explained, "There is no known correlation between the athlete's illness and the water quality of the Seine, and Briford is the only athlete showing abnormal symptoms."

However, a day later, on the 4th, Swiss officials announced, "Simon Westermann, who was scheduled to compete in Briford's place, has also shown symptoms of the same infectious disease and will not be able to compete." The problem with the Seine's water quality has been consistently pointed out since before the opening ceremony. When it rains, sewage flows into the Seine, resulting in E. coli and enterococci exceeding the standard levels being detected. Since the water quality has not improved since the opening, official training has been canceled for two consecutive days, and even the men's triathlon scheduled for the 30th of last month was postponed by one day after the Seine River was judged to be 'unsuitable' in water quality tests. Despite this, the Paris Olympic Organizing Committee has stated that "the bacteria detected in the Seine River are considered safe for athletes to swim in." However, Rambis Constantinidis, the person in charge of the operation of this event, said on the 29th of last month, "If an extreme situation occurs and all planned measures are deemed impossible, we have considered the possibility of holding the triathlon as a duathlon." The duathlon is a competition that consists of running and cycling only, excluding swimming. As such problems with the water quality of the Seine River continued to occur, the Belgian side stated on that day, "We hope that this incident will serve as a lesson for holding triathlon events in future Olympics." They also argued that "the training and competition days for the Olympics must be clearly guaranteed in advance, and there should be no confusion for athletes." 바카라사이트

10 points 'game-deciding' at every critical moment Im Si-hyeon

"shot more viciously"

Olympic archery triple crown winner, second after Ansan “I concentrated more because it was unfair to prepare” 19-year-old Nam Su-hyeon, who also advanced to the finals, won a silver medal

The Paris Olympic Organizing Committee posted an image of the Im Si-hyun statue on its official Instagram account after the finals of the women's individual archery event on the 3rd. The organizing committee also wrote in Korean, "Congratulations."

Lim Si-hyeon (21), who won three gold medals in archery at the Paris Olympics, performed a champion ceremony on the podium that no one expected. She curled her left thumb and index finger together and raised the remaining three fingers to make an ‘OK’ sign. Then, she lightly placed her left eye on it, which was a cute ceremony.

Most people who saw this on site thought it was a ceremony referring to winning three gold medals. This was because the three straight fingers stood out. However, Lim Si-hyeon’s explanation when she met the press at the mixed zone (joint press area) was different. He said, “I won three gold medals at the Hangzhou Asian Games last year. However, it was not very likely that I would win three gold medals in a row at the Paris Olympics,” and said with a smile, “That’s why I prepared this ceremony to convey the meaning of ‘passing through the eye of the needle.’” For Lim Si-

hyeon, who emerged as the ace of Korean women’s archery last year, the Paris Olympics were a series of ‘passing through the eye of the needle.’ First, he passed the Korean national archery team selection, which is so difficult that there is a metaphor that it is 'more difficult than a camel passing through the eye of a needle', in first place. He never lost first place in five competitions, including three selections and two evaluations. When he was preparing for the entrance exam with the goal of going to a sports high school, Im Si-hyeon was an athlete who had to take a separate on-site practical test because he did not have a single medal from a national competition.

At the Paris Olympics, she set a world record with 694 points in the women's ranking round on the 25th of last month, taking first place out of 64 players. Four days later, on the 29th of last month, she teamed up with Jeon Hoon-young (30) and Nam Su-hyun (19) to compete in the women's team event, achieving her 10th consecutive Olympic win. She also won a gold medal in the mixed event with Kim Woo-jin (32), a member of the men's national team, on the 2nd. Finally, in the individual final held at the Invalides Stadium in Paris on the 3rd, she defeated her teammate Nam Su-hyun with a set score of 7-3 (29-29, 29-26, 30-27, 29-30, 28-26), winning her third gold medal of the tournament.

Im Si-hyun showed concentration by shooting 10 points at critical moments and crucial moments in the team, mixed, and individual events of this tournament. He said that 'the feeling of injustice' was the secret. Lim Si-hyeon said, “I prepared so hard, so wouldn’t it be a shame if it ended so quickly? That’s why I think I shoot more tenaciously,” and “Because I’ve prepared so much, I can confidently shoot even in difficult situations.” Professor Kim Dong-guk, who coaches Lim Si-hyeon at the Korea National Sport University, described Lim Si-hyeon as a “calm 10-point shooter.” He refers to an athlete who can shoot 10 points without losing composure even when the tension is at its peak. Not

only Lim Si-hyeon, but also the Korean national archery team shoots 400 to 500 arrows a day as a basic rule. When they don’t like the training content, they shoot up to 600 arrows a day. Yang Chang-hoon, the coach of the women’s national archery team, said, “When I go out in the evening after training, there are many times when the athletes are shooting arrows even though I didn’t ask them to,” and “I’ve told the athletes to ‘rest a bit,’ but I’ve never told them to ‘do more. ’”

Im Si-hyeon chose Kim Woo-jin, with whom he competed in the mixed competition, as his 'role model' and said, "I want to become a player like Woo-jin oppa." He said, "I think Woo-jin oppa's strength is consistency. I wondered how many players can be consistent in that (world-class) position." He added, "I will continue to watch from the side and learn a lot." After finishing all of his schedules for the Paris Olympics, Im Si-hyeon's first words when meeting people he was comfortable with were, "I want to get some good sleep now. I really want to get some rest."  안전놀이터

The eldest sister's concession that killed the 'Olympic rookies'

Women's fencing team Silver

“If Jeon Eun-hye participates, the chances of winning are higher” Yoon Ji-soo gives up her spot ahead of the semifinals against France, defeats the host country France, and advances to the finals for the first time ever Lost to Ukraine in the finals, but gained experience “I will grow further in 4 years and win the Olympic gold medal”

Korean fencing women's sabre team members Jeon Ha-young, Choi Se-bin, Yoon Ji-soo, and Jeon Eun-hye (from left) are giving a thumbs up after finishing the team event at the Paris Olympics on the 4th with the best ever silver medal. For the other three, except Yoon Ji-soo, this was their first Olympic stage. 

“If you become a ‘dol-ai,’ you can do it.”

Choi Se-bin (24), the South Korean women’s sabre team fencing representative, said this to her teammates on the 4th ahead of the Paris Olympics team event final against Ukraine. With the exception of ‘oldest sister’ Yoon Ji-soo (31), who was a bronze medalist at the 2021 Tokyo Olympics, all of the South Korean women’s sabre team members, Choi Se-bin, Jeon Eun-hye (27), and Jeon Ha-young (23), were participating in their

first Olympics at this competition. Park Sang-won (24), who helped the South Korean men’s sabre team win three consecutive Olympic team gold medals in this competition, which was also their Olympic debut, cheered on Choi Se-bin, who is the same age as him, saying, “Se-bin, now you just have to go up there and spin (go crazy). If you do that, you can really do women’s sabre, too.” If the women’s team had also won, South Korea could have made history by taking gold medals in the men’s and women’s sabre team events from the same country for the first time in Olympic fencing history.

The 'Olympic rookie trio', which was inspired by the men's sabre team, were unstoppable. They were ahead of the opposing team Ukraine 40-37 when they started the last 9 rounds of the finals. However, Jeon Ha-young, who had been the 'closer' throughout the team event and given Korea victory, gave up a 42-45 comeback to the opposing team's 'ace' Olga Harlan (34), and Korea had to settle for a silver medal. The silver medal is also the best record ever achieved by the Korean women's sabre team in the Olympic team event. Choi Se-bin, who won the silver medal, smiled and said, "It seems like we've all won." What

makes this silver medal even more encouraging is that the Korean women's sabre team is undergoing a generational change. The Korean women's sabre team won a bronze medal at the Tokyo Games three years ago, but only Yoon Ji-soo, who was the 'youngest' member of the team at the time, participated in this competition as the 'eldest member.' However, Yoon Ji-soo voluntarily withdrew from the game because she thought that Jeon Eun-hye, who was a substitute, had a higher chance of advancing to the finals than herself, who had been exposed to the international stage. Yoon Ji-soo, who withdrew from the semifinals, could not participate in the finals due to the rule that a player who has been substituted once cannot participate in the subsequent games.

Jeon Eun-hye, who made her Olympic debut as a substitute for captain Yoon Ji-soo in the semifinals, played an equal match against the French players, a fencing powerhouse who received one-sided support from their home fans, and contributed to the first Olympic team finals in Korean women's sabre history. Jeon Eun-hye said, "I was really grateful that my sister said, 'It would be good for you to participate.' Doesn't that mean that she believes in me? I think she won a silver medal this time in order to win a gold medal at the Los Angeles (LA) Olympics in the United States four years later."

Jeon Ha-young, who allowed a comeback in the final round, also smiled brightly. Jeon Ha-young said, "I was greatly outdone by veteran Olga in terms of boldness and composure. Still, it was a match that made me think, 'I can do it too.' “I will grow further and win the gold medal in four years,” he said. The Ukrainian team, which defeated Korea, brought the first gold medal of this competition to the country under invasion by Russia. 안전놀이터

“I will end it romantically” Ahn Se-young advances to women’s singles

Finals in badminton for the first time in 28 years

After losing 1 set in both the quarterfinals and semifinals, she made a comeback “If I lose the first game, I will come to my senses and push myself” Today, she will face China’s He Bingzhao for gold… An Se-young has the upper hand with 8 wins and 5 losses “I will exert more effort in the final hurdle”

An Se-young is raising her fist and roaring after winning a 2-1 comeback victory over Gregoria Mariska Tunjung (Indonesia) in the semifinals of the Paris Olympics badminton women's singles on the 4th. An Se-young won the second and third sets after losing the first set in the quarterfinals and semifinals. An Se-young, who is the first Korean badminton women's singles player to reach the Olympic finals in 28 years, will challenge for her first gold medal in 28 years against He Bingzhao (China) on the 5th.

The expression "the first since Bang Soo-hyun (52)" always follows Ahn Se-young (22), the "shuttlecock genius."

Ahn Se-young became the first Korean player since Bang Soo-hyun to win the Asian Games badminton women's singles when she won the gold medal in Hangzhou last year. Before that, Ahn Se-young also became the first Korean player since Bang Soo-hyun to reach No. 1 in the Badminton World Federation (BWF) singles rankings. Bang Soo-hyun and Ahn Se-young are the only Korean players to have won the All England Open women's singles, the most prestigious event in the badminton world.

Ahn Se-young, who participated in the Paris Olympics as No. 1 in the BWF women's singles rankings, once again set the "first since Bang Soo-hyun" record on the 4th. On this day, in the semifinals held at the Porte de la Chapelle in Paris, Ahn Se-young achieved a comeback victory over Gregoria Mariska Tunjung (25, Indonesia, 8th) 2-1 (11-21, 21-13, 21-16), becoming the first Korean athlete since Bang Soo-hyun to advance to the Olympic finals in this event. If Ahn Se-young wins the finals scheduled to begin at 5:55 PM on the 5th, she will become the first Korean to win this event in 28 years since Bang Soo-hyun at the 1996 Atlanta Games.

The early elimination of Chen Yufei (26, China, 2nd), who was considered her strongest rival, is also encouraging for Ahn Se-young. Chen Yufei, the winner of the gold medal at the 2021 Tokyo Olympics and who faced Ahn Se-young in the finals of the Hangzhou Asian Games, lost 0-2 (16-21, 17-21) to compatriot He Bingzhao (27, China, 9th) in the quarterfinals the day before. He Bingzhao won by forfeit against 2016 Rio de Janeiro gold medalist Carolina Marin (31, Spain, 4th) in the semifinals that day and advanced to the finals to face Ahn Se-young.

Ahn Se-young, who lost to Chen Yufei in the quarterfinals at the Tokyo Olympics three years ago and was eliminated, said, “I wanted to face Chen Yufei again at the Olympics. (Winning the gold medal by defeating Chen Weifei) was a really cool picture,” she said. “It’s a shame that I couldn’t play against Chen Weifei, but I still have to win, so I won’t think about it any more.”

Ahn Se-young continued, “Thanks to the support of so many people on the dream stage (of the Olympics), I was able to run this far without giving up,” and added, “It’s hard to let go of this excitement. Still, I’ll just focus on tomorrow so that I can finish romantically in Paris. Please cheer me on so that I can exert more strength at the final hurdle.” Ahn Se

-young has a total record of 8 wins and 5 losses against He Bingzhao. In particular, since last year, they have faced each other a total of 8 times and have only lost once. The result of the final is still unknown, but even if Ahn Se-young loses the first set in the final, it is highly likely that it will not have a big impact on the result. Ahn Se-young also lost the first set in the quarterfinal match against Yamaguchi Akane (27, Japan, 5th) the day before, and then won a comeback victory. Yamaguchi had been ranked No. 1 in the world for 47 weeks before Ahn Se-young. Ahn Se-young said, “When I lose the first set, my mind clears up and I push myself to win,” and “From the second set, I made up my mind that I could do it, and I was able to do it. Maybe it’s because my stamina has improved, but I wasn’t too worried (even though I lost the first set).” She continued, “It would be a lie to say I’m not greedy for the gold medal. However, the tournament is not over yet. I’ll put my greed aside and go all-in on tomorrow’s match.” 카지노사이트

Both players shot 10 points, but Kim Woo-jin's arrow was 55.8mm from the center, closer than Ellison's 60.7mm. Kim Woo-jin won three gold medals at the competition, following the team event and the mixed event where he teamed up with national team member Im Si-hyeon (21). Kim Woo-jin won gold medals in the team event at the 2016 Rio de Janeiro and 2021 Tokyo Games, and this is his first individual victory.

Lim Si-hyeon and her college classmate Yang Ji-in won the gold medal in the women’s 25m pistol final on the 3rd, defeating Camille Ezejewski (France) in a shoot-off. This is the third gold medal for Korean shooting at this competition. Yang Ji-in and Lim Si-hyeon are classmates from the 22nd class of Korea National Sport University. With three gold medals and two silver medals so far, Korean shooting has achieved its best Olympic performance along with the 2012 London Games (three gold medals and two silver medals). The

women’s fencing sabre team lost 42-45 to Ukraine in the final on the 4th and took home a silver medal. This is the women’s sabre team’s best Olympic performance. Korea, consisting of Yoon Ji-soo (31), Jeon Ha-young (23), Choi Se-bin (24), and Jeon Eun-hye (27), defeated France, a fencing powerhouse and world number one in team sabre, 45-36 in the semifinals to advance to the finals. On this day, Korea’s judo team won the bronze medal by defeating Germany 4-3 in an additional golden score (overtime) match in the mixed team event third place match. Badminton’s An Se-young (22) advanced to the women’s singles finals and will compete with He Bingzhao (China) for the gold medal on the 5th. 카지노사이트

China Beats World's Strongest Team USA Men's 400m Medley Relay Gold Medal

The Chinese swimming men's team celebrates after winning the gold medal in the men's 4x100m medley relay final at the 2024 Paris Olympics at the La Defense Arena in Paris, France on the 4th (local time). China upset the United States, the world's strongest team and one that has never missed a gold medal at the Olympics.

The biggest Olympic upset occurred when China defeated the world's best, the United States, in the men's 4x100m medley relay final at the Paris Olympics and won the gold medal.

The Chinese men's team, consisting of Xu Jiayu, Qin Haiyang, Sun Jiajun, and Pan Zhanle, won the gold medal by touching the finish line with a time of 3 minutes and 27.46 seconds, 0.55 seconds ahead of the United States, in the men's 4x100m medley relay at the 2024 Paris Olympics held at the La Defense Arena in Paris, France on the 4th (local time).

The United States is the world's strongest swimming team, having never missed a gold medal in the men's 4x100m medley relay since the 1960 Rome Olympics.

The only time they did not win a medal was in the 1980 Moscow Olympics, when then-US President Jimmy Carter boycotted the event in protest of the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, and did not send a national team.

Excluding this Olympics, the US has won gold medals in this event 15 times in a row.

Even if we exclude the Moscow Olympics, where they did not participate, they have won gold medals in 10 consecutive events over the past 36 years since the 1984 LA Olympics.

Especially in the 2008 Beijing, 2012 London, and 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympics, when he teamed up with world star Michael Phelps, the US 400m medley relay was considered an event with no rivals in the world. China beat the US. China was on par with the US from the beginning of the game. They were fiercely competitive, narrowly ahead of the US after passing the 100m and the second swimmer. China began to take the lead after the second breaststroke swimmer reached the 150m mark. The US temporarily dropped to 4th place after the 200m mark. China fell back to 3rd place after the third breaststroke swimmer fell behind, but the dramatic comeback began when the last freestyle swimmer jumped in. The three-way battle between the US, China, and France continued until the 350m mark, but China began to take the lead in the last 50m. The last runner for China was Fan Zhanle, the current world record holder and the men's 100m gold medalist of the Games. Fan Zhanle moved into second place with 350m to go, and then pulled away from the US and France with a stunning sprint in the final 50m. The US took silver in 3:28.01, and France took bronze in 3:28.38. The US missed out on gold in the men's event, but immediately won gold in the women's 4x100m medley relay, breaking the world record.

The US women's team, consisting of Regan Smith, Lilly King, Gretchen Walsh, and Torrey Huskey, crossed the finish line first in the women's 4x100m medley relay, which took place immediately after the men's final on the same day at the same stadium, with a time of 3:49.63. The

previous world record for the women's 4x100m medley relay was also held by the US. This record was set in Korea.

At the 2019 World Aquatics Championships in Gwangju, the US team won the 4x100m medley relay final with a time of 3:50.40.

China also solidified its status as a swimming powerhouse by taking the bronze medal in the women's event with a time of 3:53.23.

The Australian team won the silver medal in the women's event with a time of 3:53.11.  카지노사이트

30th (local time), the table tennis mixed doubles third-place match and final were both held at Arena 4 in South Paris, France.

In the third-place match, the Korean pair of Shin Yu-bin (20, Korean Air) and Lim Jong-hoon (27, Korea Exchange) defeated the Hong Kong pair of Du Hoi Kem and Wong Chun-ting to win the bronze medal.

In the final, North Korea's Ri Jong-sik and Kim Kum-yong lost to China's Wang Chujin and Sun Yingsha and won the silver medal.

The awards ceremony began, and bronze medalists Shin Yu-bin and Lim Jong-hoon went up to the podium first. Ri Jeong-sik and Kim Geum-yong applauded. After the silver medalists were called, the North Korean athletes headed to the podium with calm expressions. At this time, Shin Yu-bin and Lim Jong-hoon also applauded. The North and South Korean athletes shook hands and congratulated each other.

Finally, the Chinese athletes who won gold medals went up to the podium, and the Chinese national anthem played. After the Chinese five-star red flag, the North Korean flag and the Taegeukgi were raised in turn.

Those who wore medals around their necks all took 'selfies' with their phones. In this Olympics, there is a 'victory selfie' event where the winners of each event take a commemorative photo after the awards ceremony. The 'Galaxy Z Flip6 Olympic Edition' from Samsung Electronics, an official partner of the International Olympic Committee (IOC), will be with them at this glorious moment. At the table tennis mixed doubles awards ceremony, an Olympic volunteer also handed out the Galaxy Z Flip6 Olympic Edition to the winners. Lim Jong-hoon, who was nearby, stepped forward and grabbed the smartphone. Lim moved around to take pictures with the players from various angles. It was a rare scene of South and North Korean athletes taking pictures with domestically produced smartphones. When asked if he had any conversation with the North Korean athletes, Lim Jong-hoon said, "When we shook hands, we just congratulated each other on winning medals, and there was no separate conversation."

The North Korean athletes, who had refused interviews throughout the competition, spoke for the first time at the medalists’ official press conference. When asked if he felt any sense of competition with the South Korean athletes, Kim Geum-yong said, “I didn’t feel that at all.” When

asked about his feelings about the competition, he said, “(North Korea) is participating in the Olympics for the first time in eight years, so I’m glad to be here. I’m disappointed with the silver medal, but I learned a lot from playing against the world’s No. 1 China. I’ll train harder to win the gold medal in the future.”

When asked, “Have you talked to your family after the competition?” Kim Geum-yong said, “No.” When asked, “Have you trained abroad?” Ri Jeong-sik gave a short answer, “No. I did it in my home country.” When the moderator called North Korea “North Korea” during the press conference, a member of the North Korean national team protested. The organizing committee accepted this and said they would change it. Afterwards, the moderator called North Korea “DPR Korea (Democratic People’s Republic of Korea).”  파워볼사이트

Feels like 40 degrees, heat wave hits Paris Ice vests appear

The sweltering heat has begun in Paris, France, where the '2024 Paris Olympics' is being held, and athletes competing in the games are having a hard time. Heat wave warnings have been issued for Paris and surrounding areas, emphasizing the importance of health management.

According to a BBC report on the 31st (Korean time), the heat is getting worse this week, with Paris reaching a high of 35 degrees. A

yellow warning, the second highest of the four weather warnings, has been issued in Paris, and an orange warning, the third highest, has been issued in Bordeaux and Lyon.

Players are also busy responding to the sudden heat, such as wearing ice vests to overcome the heat that feels like 40 degrees.

At soccer stadiums, signs were posted urging spectators to wear hats, drink plenty of water, and apply sunscreen. In tennis,

long breaks were given between the second and third sets of the men's and women's singles, which were held in the middle of the day.

British tennis player Jack Draper complained, saying, "I haven't played in this heat for four months. It's really hard." He also complained, saying, "They give the players water bottles, but they don't keep them cool. It's like drinking hot water outside." British equestrian Carl Hester said he adjusted his warm-up routine to protect himself and his horse from the heat, and BMX racing provided riders with ice vests and water bottles, and even provided shade with umbrellas. Some outdoor events have regulations that require the game to be stopped if the temperature exceeds the limit. Paris Olympics Organizing Committee Director Rambis Constantinidis said, “We do not expect any large-scale cancellations (due to the heat wave), but we will evaluate each case,” adding, “We will not put anyone at risk.” 파워볼사이트

Boxing Medal in 12 Years Im Ae-ji, One Win, Medal

Im Ae-ji advances to quarterfinals; wins against Colombian player in quarterfinals to secure bronze medal

Lim Ae-ji (25, Hwasun County Office), the hope of Korean women's boxing at the 2024 Paris Olympics, has advanced to the quarterfinals and with one more win, she will become the first Korean boxer to win an Olympic medal in 12 years and the first female

boxer to do so. Lim Ae-ji won a 4-1 decision over Brazil's Tatiana Regina de Jesus Chagas in the round of 16 of the women's 54kg class at the 2024 Paris Olympics held at the North Arena in Paris, France on the

30th (local time). Lim Ae-ji's quarterfinal opponent has been set to be Colombia's Marcela Arias Castaneda. Although she is a strong opponent who was seeded 2nd in this Olympics, Lim Ae-ji is also in good condition.

Since there is no match for 3rd and 4th place in Olympic boxing, if Lim Ae-ji beats Castaneda and advances to the semifinals, she can secure a bronze medal.

Lim Ae-ji met with reporters in the mixed zone after the match and said, “Today, I tried to do what I do best. I think I prepared only about 70%,” and added, “I won’t let my guard down.”

If Lim Ae-ji advances to the quarterfinals, she will be the first Korean boxer to win a medal in 12 years since 2012.

Lim Ae-ji said, “The Olympics are the Olympics. It’s not easy no matter who I face,” and added, “There are only two days left, so I will prepare thoroughly.” Lim Ae-ji also participated in the 2021 Tokyo Olympics and was eliminated in her first match, but she won in this Paris competition. If Lim Ae-ji succeeds in winning a medal, it will be recorded as the first medal in Korean women’s boxing history. The quarterfinals will be held at 4 a.m. on the 2nd of next month. 토토사이트

Shin Yu-bin, now hunting for individual medals

Today’s match against the 71st place winner in the round of 32

Shin Yu-bin, ranked 8th in the world in women's singles

Shin Yu-bin (Korean Air), who brought Korea's first Olympic medal to table tennis in 12 years, will go on the hunt for an individual medal today.

The Shin Yu-bin-Lim Jong-hoon pair (3rd) defeated the Hong Kong pair of Wong Chun-ting and Du Hoi Kem (4th) 4-0 (11-5 11-7 11-7 14-12) in the bronze medal match for the table tennis mixed doubles held at the South Paris Arena 4 in Paris, France on the 30th (local time). Shin

Yu-bin and Lim Jong-hoon, who had lost 2-4 (11-6 7-11 11-9 5-11 7-11 9-11) to the world's No. 1 Wang Chuqin and Sun Yingsha of China in the semifinals the previous day and were pushed into the match for 3rd place, defeated Hong Kong and won the bronze medal.

With this, Korean table tennis has won a medal for the first time in 12 years since the silver medal at the 2012 London Olympics.

Shin Yu-bin, who grew from a 'table tennis prodigy' to a 'table tennis star' of Korea, has achieved her medal dream on her second Olympic stage.

Shin Yu-bin shed tears after losing 2-3 to Germany in the quarterfinals of the women's team event at the 2020 Tokyo Games and promised to compete in the next Olympics.

After the Tokyo Olympics, Shin Yu-bin underwent surgery to insert a pin into her wrist bone due to a stress fracture in her right wrist and devoted herself to long-term rehabilitation. After that, she advanced to the women's doubles finals with Jeon Ji-hee (Mirae Asset Securities) at the Durban World Championships in May last year for the first time in 36 years, and then improved her skills by collaborating with Jeon Ji-hee to win the gold medal in women's doubles for the first time in 21 years at the Hangzhou Asian Games. Shin Yu-bin, who also won a bronze medal in the mixed doubles this time, is aiming for her first Olympic individual medal. Shin Yu-bin, ranked 8th in the world in women's singles, will play in the round of 32 at 5 p.m. on the 31st. Her opponent will be Hungary's Georgina Fota (ranked 71st). If Shin Yu-bin defeats Fota, she will break her personal Olympic record. Shin Yu-bin was eliminated in the round of 32 at the Tokyo Games. Shin Yu-bin said, "I played against Fota once, and she is a very experienced and skilled player. I won the first match, but I will play this match with the mindset of challenging myself again." 안전놀이터

“The best shot of all time” Brazilian surfer’s ceremony ‘topic’

A Brazilian surfer is drawing attention with a photo taken at the 2024 Paris Olympics.

On the 30th, several online communities posted a post titled, “Olympic surfing scenes that became a hot topic overseas.” The

post included a scene of Brazilian athlete Gabriel Medina (31) surfing the waves during the single wave surfing competition at the Paris Olympics held in Teahufu, Tahiti on the 29th.

Medina posed leisurely, raising both hands while surfing, and jumped off the board as a large wave approached.

At this time, Medina pointed to the sky with his right index finger and stayed in the air for a few seconds, a fantastic ceremony that seemed to be levitating.

Medina is a three-time World Surfing League (WSL) champion. In the competition that day, he set an Olympic record of 9.90 and advanced to the men's surfing quarterfinals.

According to the Guardian, the reporter who captured the moment was Jerome Brouillet of France's AFP. He was waiting on a boat nearby and was able to capture this surreal scene. "The conditions were perfect and the waves were higher than expected," Brouillet said. "I was behind the wave when Medina suddenly appeared and took four photos. This was one of them." He added, "Taking the photo wasn't difficult. It was more important to anticipate where the athlete would hit the wave and come out at that moment." Netizens who saw the photo cheered, saying, “Wow, he’s standing on clouds,” “This is this year’s Pulitzer Prize,” “Poseidon reminds me of Aquaman,” “Isn’t this CG?” “The best shot ever.”  파워볼사이트

Kim Woo-min, who finished his second Olympics, said

“My bronze medal is the most precious I have to enjoy the ‘city of romance’”

Won bronze medal in men's 400m freestyle

For Kim Woo-min (23, Gangwon Provincial Office), the Paris Games, which was his second Olympic stage, was a competition of mixed joy and regret.

While he won a bronze medal in the men's 400m freestyle, he failed to win a medal in the 800m relay, which he had so desperately wanted, as he came in 6th place in the final.

After finishing the men's 800m relay final at the 2024 Paris Olympics swimming competition held at the La Defense Arena in Paris, France on the 31st (Korean time), Kim Woo-min said, "This Olympics is a competition that I really prepared hard for. I have some regrets, but I think I did well," and "I feel relieved personally. I have some regrets, but I think it's time to forget about them now."

Kim Woo-min, who only competed in the 800m freestyle relay at the 2020 Tokyo Games held in 2021, which was his first Olympics, visited Paris with a different status this time.

Kim Woo-min, who boasted rapid growth, won the gold medal in the men's 400m freestyle at the Doha World Aquatics Championships in February this year and was considered a strong candidate for a medal in this event at the Paris Olympics.

Kim Woo-min finished 7th in the men's 400m freestyle preliminaries at this competition, narrowly clinching a ticket to the finals with 8 swimmers.

However, he raced as planned despite being assigned to the unfavorable lane 1 in the finals. Kim Woo-min, who touched the pad with a time of 3:42.50, took 3rd place after Lucas Martens (Germany, 3:41.78) and Elijah Winington (Australia, 3:42.21) and won a bronze medal. With this, Kim Woo-min became the second Olympic medalist for Korean swimming, following 'living history' Park Tae-hwan. It was the first medal for Korean swimming in 12 years since the 2012 London Olympics. Kim Woo-min said, "After winning the gold medal at the World Championships, I really wanted this Paris Olympics. I'm really happy to have achieved the satisfactory result of winning a medal. It was a medal that definitely motivated me." He continued, "I think it's the most valuable of the bronze medals in this competition. That's how much I wanted a medal at this Olympics, and I prepared for the competition more diligently than anyone else." However, he was disappointed in the 800m relay relay, where he had hoped for a medal. The Korean team recorded 7 minutes 07.26 seconds and came in 6th place. More disappointing than the ranking was the record. The 'elite members' who set an Asian record and won a gold medal at the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games last year entered the finals, but fell far short of the record at that time of 7 minutes 01.73 seconds. It was also a disappointing result for Kim Woo-min, who gave up competing in the 800m and 1500m freestyle to focus on the 800m relay. Kim Woo-min emphasized, “I think one of the 10 things was not right, which led to the disappointing result. I think we can break the Asian record again with a perfect performance next time. Our team can do it.” Although he enjoyed the joy of winning a medal in his main event, it was heartbreaking for Kim Woo-min to see his close friend and roommate Hwang Sun-woo (21, Gangwon Provincial Office) struggle. Kim Woo-min said, “After I won the bronze medal in the 400m freestyle, (Hwang) Sun-woo congratulated me so much. He encouraged me to do well in the 200m freestyle, but I was eliminated in the semifinals. After that, I told him to forget about it quickly and prepare for the 800m relay,” and “However, I was heartbroken because my skills did not improve as much as I had prepared. I wanted to win a medal together and take a picture in my room, so I just regret it.” “The regret I felt during this competition will give me strength when I go back to Korea to prepare for training again,” he said, but he is planning to put it off for now. He wants to enjoy the ‘city of romance’ Paris with a carefree mind. Kim Woo-min smiled and said, “I want to enjoy the city of romance. I haven’t been there yet, but I want to see the Eiffel Tower first. After that, I want to go to the Louvre Museum and see the Mona Lisa.”  파워볼사이트

Lady Gaga's Opening Ceremony Performance Was Pre-Recorded "Because of Bad Weather"

On the 27th (Korean time), the opening day of the 2024 Paris Olympics, the audience is watching Lady Gaga's congratulatory performance at the opening ceremony venue set up at Trocadero Square in Paris, France.

It has been revealed that pop star Lady Gaga's performance at the Paris Olympics opening ceremony was not live but a recorded video. Lady Gaga's side explained, "It was an inevitable decision due to the bad weather."

According to the British media outlet The Independent on the 31st, Lady Gaga's performance, which was the first performance at the Paris Olympics opening ceremony, was a pre-recorded video.

Lady Gaga, who opened the opening ceremony, performed a reinterpretation of the original song "Mine Made of Feathers" released by Gigi Jeanmer in 1961.

French local media reported that Lady Gaga's set was empty at the time. Regarding this, choreographer and Olympic dancer Maud Le Pradeck said, "Unfortunately, it was the only performance that had to be pre-recorded for safety reasons," and "I've never seen the weather forecast so often in my life."

It is explained that they concluded that a live performance would be dangerous considering that Lady Gaga would be performing on stairs wearing high heels. This opening ceremony was held outdoors for the first time in Olympic history, but heavy rain continued to fall.

However, Lady Gaga's strong will to perform even in the rain led to the performance being recorded before the opening ceremony, and she stayed at the opening ceremony to watch the video of her performance.

Later, Lady Gaga expressed her feelings through social network service (SNS) X (formerly Twitter), saying, "I wanted to create a performance that warms the hearts of France, celebrates French art and music, and reminds everyone of Paris, the most magical city." 토토사이트

“Korea is overreacting” Chinese netizens mock Korea for being angry over

Paris Olympics mistakes

Chinese netizens are continuing to mock Koreans about the reactions of the Paris Olympics' repeated mistakes.

On the 30th, Chinese state-run media outlet Global Times reported that Korean netizens are angry due to the controversy surrounding the use of the Korean national name and the Taegeukgi flag at the Paris Olympics. Earlier,

there was controversy when the announcer at the Paris Olympics opening ceremony introduced "South Korea" as "North Korea."

On the 28th, when reporting the news of Oh Sang-wook winning the gold medal in the men's sabre individual fencing event, the organizing committee of the event misspelled 'Oh Sang-wook's' English name as 'Oh Sang-goo.'

The Global Times also reported that, "French media combined the Korean and Japanese flags to create a Korean flag, and when introducing Korea's rankings on the medal tally chart, they mistakenly used the South African flag instead of the Taegeukgi, drawing criticism."

Recently, on Baidu and Weibo, China's largest portals, news

about the Olympics related to Korea, including the Taegeukgi and the incorrect name of the country, rose to the top of the search rankings. Professor Seo Kyung-deok of Sungshin Women's University reported on the 31st that, "Some Chinese netizens are mocking Korea by posting many comments saying that (the mistake) stemmed from the French people's composure and that Korea is overreacting." Professor Seo emphasized that, "The Chinese people's inferiority complex toward Korea is also revealed in the Olympics," and that, "We should not just be angry and critical of these mistakes, but should make proper corrections through legitimate protests."  안전놀이터

Kim Min-seop, who was frustrated in the 200m butterfly final, said

“It was a good experience in the long run.”

Kim Min-seop (20, Dokdo Sports Team) finished his first Olympics by being eliminated in the men's 200m butterfly semifinals at the 2024 Paris Olympics. At

3:44 am (Korean time) on the 31st, Kim Min-seop touched the touchpad with a time of 1 minute 55.22 seconds in the second group of the men's 200m butterfly semifinals at the swimming competition held at the La Defense Arena in Paris, France.

Kim Min-seop, who finished 7th in his group and 13th overall in the semifinals, failed to advance to the finals, where the top 8 swimmers compete.

Kim Min-seop recorded 1 minute 56.02 seconds in the preliminary round, placing 15th overall, and earning a ticket to the semifinals, which are given to the top 16 swimmers.

Kim Min-seop is the first Korean male athlete to advance to the semifinals of the Olympic butterfly event. The best record for a Korean athlete in the men’s 200m butterfly at an Olympics was 19th place in the preliminary round by Han Kyu-cheol at the 2000 Sydney Olympics.

However, Kim Min-seop’s challenge ended in the semifinals.

Kim Min-seop, who currently holds the Korean record for the men’s 200m butterfly (1 minute 54.95 seconds), is making his first Olympic appearance. Kim Min-seop, who only competed in the 200m butterfly, finished the competition without making it to the finals. In the men’s 200m butterfly semifinals, Krzysztof Milak (Hungary), the world record holder in this event, recorded 1 minute 52.72 seconds and took first place overall. Léon Marchand (France) came in second with 1 minute 53.50 seconds, followed by Ilya Karun (Canada) with 1 minute 54.01 seconds. After the race, Kim Min-seop said, “When I was training at the athletes’ village for this Olympics, I unofficially set a faster time than the Korean record. I wanted to break the Korean record, but it’s disappointing,” and “I thought I had everything I lacked while racing, but I’m disappointed with my record.” Although he was the first Korean male athlete to advance to the semifinals of the butterfly event, Kim Min-seop said, “I came here hoping to advance to the finals. I’m not very satisfied with just advancing to the semifinals.” Having gained a lot of experience at the age of 20, Kim Min-seop is looking forward to the Los Angeles Olympics in four years. Kim Min-seop said, “In the long run, this Olympics was a great experience for me. I felt pressure and tension that I couldn’t feel in domestic competitions,” and “I’m gaining great experience.” 카지노사이트
