Kim, who said he would get 5, already got 12 Expectations for the best performance ever for the fewest players

143 participants, the lowest in 48 years 27 ​​medals including 12 gold medals as of yesterday, 7 more medals would be the most in a single Olympics Modern pentathlon, taekwondo, etc. are still promising.

With Park Tae-jun (20) winning the men’s 58kg taekwondo class at the Paris Olympics on the 8th, Korea has increased its gold medal tally to 12 in this competition. This is more than double the 5 gold medals that the Korean Sports Council had predicted before the opening of the competition. Korea has 143 athletes participating in this competition, the lowest number in 48 years since the 1976 Montreal Olympics (50 athletes), but the medal tally is expected to be the highest ever.

As of the 8th, Korea has won 12 gold, 8 silver, and 7 bronze medals, for a total of 27 medals. If it adds two more gold medals, it will become the most ever. Korea won 13 gold medals in the 2008 Beijing and 2012 London Olympics, recording the most gold medals in a single Olympics. The Olympics where Korea won the most medals was the 1988 Seoul Olympics. At that time, Korea won 12 gold, 10 silver, and 11 bronze medals, for a total of 33 medals. It is the only competition in which Korea won more than double digits in both gold, silver, and bronze medals. If Korea adds 7 more medals, regardless of color, in this competition, it will set a new record for the most medals in a single Olympics.

With the Paris Olympics coming to a close on the 12th (Korean time), Korea is aiming for additional medals in taekwondo, modern pentathlon, weightlifting, breaking, and high jump. Including Park Tae-jun, four taekwondo athletes participated in this competition, and all were evaluated as having the potential to win medals.

In the modern pentathlon, Jeon Woong-tae in the men’s category and Sung Seung-min in the women’s category will challenge for the gold medal. Jeon Woong-tae is the athlete who made his name as the first Korean modern pentathlon Olympic medalist (bronze medal) at the Tokyo Games three years ago. Sung Seung-min raised expectations for a medal at the Paris Olympics by becoming the first Korean female athlete to win the individual event at the World Championships held in Zhengzhou, China in June of this year.

A medal parade is also expected in weightlifting, where five athletes from both men and women will participate. After a poor performance with no medals at the 2021 Tokyo Games, Korea’s weightlifting team is aiming for at least two medals at this Olympics.

Japan has 432 athletes participating in this competition, more than three times that of Korea, and as of the 8th, it has 12 gold, 7 silver, and 13 bronze medals. The number of gold medals is the same as Korea’s, but Japan has five more total medals. 파워볼사이트
