If it were not for the infighting in the South Korean team, the Olympic king of six golds would probably not have become the coach of the Chinese team

In last night's mixed relay game at the Beijing Winter Olympics, a familiar figure appeared in the camp of the Chinese team. He is the legend of the short track speed skating world, Ahn Hyun-so, also known as Victor Ann. The life of this ice rink legend is comparable to that of the male protagonist of the novel! Listen to "Journey to the East Winter Olympics" slowly.

As the "King of Six Golds" of the Winter Olympics, Ahn Hyun-so once dominated the short track speed skating arena. At the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin, he won three gold medals for the Korean team.

After reaching the top of Turin in 2006, Ahn Hyun-so was supposed to be the central figure of the Korean short track speed skating team, but was marginalized due to internal reasons in the Korean team, which even prevented it from training and playing normally.

In 2009, an unexpected injury became a turning point in Ahn Hyun-so's life, and he missed the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics due to an injury that was seriously injured but had to be treated at his own expense. A year later, Ahn Hyun-so went to Russia and became a Russian citizen, changing his name to Victor An.

After that, he won 3 gold medals for the Russian team at the Sochi Winter Olympics. Representing Russia on the ice rink, he met the Chinese team many times in the arena, and Ahn Hyun-so and Wang Meng had a particularly close relationship, and Wang Meng also said that the two were "heroes and heroes". Under the strong recommendation of Wang Meng, An Hyun-so received an official invitation from the coaching staff of the Chinese short track speed skating team. At the Winter Olympics, Ahn Hyun-so also officially joined the Chinese Legion as one of the coaching team members to lead the Chinese short track speed skating team to Beijing.
