Seo Chae-hyun, who won a silver medal in sports climbing at the Hangzhou Asian Games, posted on social media after the event, "I didn't want all three athletes to win medals based on their qualifying results due to the rain." The rain prevented the finals from taking place, so she chose the color of her medal based on her semi-final ranking and won silver.

"Ai Mori of Japan, who won the gold medal, and Zhang Yutong of China, who won the bronze medal, are both 19 years old," Seo said on Tuesday. "It was our first Asian Games, so we really wanted to do the final route, but we were disappointed that we didn't get to do it."

"I did really well in the semifinals, and I was in good shape, so I thought I had a chance in the final because it would be a little more difficult and I was in better shape than Mori, but my dad, who is the coach, told me, 'Dad thinks you're a gold medalist.

Seo Jong-guk, director of the Seoul Metropolitan Government, also said, "It's a shame because I have a good rivalry with Mori, and it's a shame that I won't have more opportunities to showcase climbing to the public." 카지노사이트777

When I asked him what he did while waiting for the final, which was delayed by an hour, he said, "We exchanged team badges and played origami with the paper that Mori brought from Japan." He was an unruly teenager. "All three of us have been rivals since youth competitions, but we're also close because we made friends for the first time at international competitions," he said. "When we compete, we also share our opinions on how to conquer the route."

Seo Chae-hyun is a member of the Seoul Metropolitan Government, which established the country's first unemployed climbing team last September. The team receives support for travel expenses, training equipment, and rewards for winning competitions. He also competed at the National Championships and won two medals. "Athletes who are not part of the unemployment team compete in individual mountain clubs with the support of their respective provincial sports federations," explains Seo, "so they can focus on their training much more steadily than other athletes."

Seo Chae-hyun has her sights set even higher. After reaching the final of the Tokyo Olympics two years ago but failing to make the podium, she wants to make amends in Paris. Her first goal is to qualify for the Olympic Games at the qualifying event in Jakarta, Indonesia, starting next month on September 9. "After that, I will focus on Paris," he said.
