and I am very happy to be able to bring about good results.

It will be difficult to think that the process is as important as that

but I will overcome it well.

the winning of four events is the highest ever.

the splendid achievements made at the World Championships have the meaning of predicting the revival as a filial sport in the Asian Games.

Korean badminton has been preparing for this Hangzhou competition with great pride after experiencing the Asian Games’No Medal’ shame in 40 years during the 2018 Jakarta and Palembang competitions.

Expectations for breaking the record for the most gold medals (four) in the Asian Games

set at the 1994 Hiroshima and 2002 Busan Games

as well as the revenge from five years ago

are also rising.

Due to the nature of events in which Asian countries

including Korea

China

Japan

are strong

the results of this Asian Games are also important for preparations for next year’s Paris Olympics.

National team coach Kim Hak-kyun said

I think the players did a good job in this tournament because they always worked harder than expected in the preparation process.

I will try to win more.

As soon as their morale rises

the national team players plan to return to the Jincheon National Athlete’s Village to continue their hardening and finish preparations for the Asian Games with the China Open Championship early next month.
