Ahn Hyun-so has once again sparked a heated discussion and once again struck a chord with the South Korean short track speed skating team. As a technical coach, he helped the Chinese short track speed skating team win the gold medal in the mixed relay. On February 6, many Korean media mentioned Ahn Hyun-soo and slandered it, believing that Ahn Hyun-soo was retaliating against South Korea.
After Wu Dajing was the first to hit the line and help the Chinese team win the gold, he was very excited to come to the coach's seat and high-five the coaches one by one, including Ahn Hyun-so.
This picture moved many people, once Ahn Hyun-so was An Hyun-so's opponent, in the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympics, Wu Dajing lost to Ahn Hyun-so in the 500-meter event. Ahn Hyun-so was hard at the Winter Olympics that year, and won 3 gold and 1 bronze for the Russian team.
Ahn Hyun-so is a rare talent for short-track speed skating, winning 3 gold and 1 bronze medal at the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin. But he fractured his left knee during a training session in 2008, and the South Korean team did not fund his treatment. Ahn Hyun-so returned to the field after three surgeries at his own expense, but was not selected for the South Korean team for the 2010 Winter Olympics.
Ahn Hyun-so joined the Russian nationality in one fell swoop, changed his name to Victor Ahn, and competed for Russia at the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympics, where he won 3 gold medals and 1 bronze medal in one fell swoop, becoming the king of six gold medals at the Winter Olympics, and hitting the South Korean team hard.
Ahn Hyun-so retired in early 2020, and Wang then sent an invitation to Ahn Hyun-so to become a technical coach. Wang Meng later left the coaching staff, but Ahn Hyun-so officially became the technical coach of the Chinese short track speed skating team in 2021, helping the Chinese team continue to improve its ability.
The arrival of Ahn Hyun-so is a great thing for Wu Dajing, and such a legendary superstar can help Wu Dajing better prepare for the battle. In the mixed relay competition, the Chinese team won the gold medal, and Ahn Hyun-so also had a credit.
The South Korean media was sour, and some media questioned Ahn Hyun-so " Is this deliberately trying to take over the Chinese team to retaliate against South Korea?" "In fact, there is nothing wrong with coaches coaching abroad. China also has many table tennis coaches, diving coaches and gymnastics coaches coaching abroad, and has helped foreign athletes win Olympic medals and even gold medals.
