On the evening of February 7, Beijing time, the Beijing Winter Olympics short track speed skating field produced two more gold medals, and China's Ren Ziwei and Li Wenlong won the gold and silver medals in the men's 1000 meters.
In the three short track speed skating finals that have been concluded, the Chinese team won two gold medals and one silver medal, highlighting the strength of the short track speed skating power.
How did the South Korean team perform? In all three competitions, none of the Korean athletes reached the final, and such a performance brought anger and frustration to Korean netizens and the media.
In the quarterfinals of the women's 500m, Pyeongchang Winter Olympic gold medalist Choi Min-ching made a mistake herself and fell off the track without contact with anyone.
In the men's 1,000m semi-finals, South Korea's two runners, Hwang Daehyun and Lee Joon-sui, crossed the finish line in the top two of their respective groups.
But both South Koreans were disqualified for blocking their opponents' routes while overtaking.
Such a judgment has caused great dissatisfaction among the Korean media and South Korean netizens, who believe that the referee's judgment is incomprehensible, especially that Huang Daxian's transcendence is almost perfect.
In addition, a number of South Korean media have also targeted China, believing that China has enjoyed excessive host advantages, so that many athletes who have the ability to win gold medals, including Liu Shaolin in the final, have become scapegoats. The penalties against Huang Daxian and Li Junrui are the shortcut for the Chinese team to win gold!
Many South Korean netizens also called on the South Korean delegation to appeal to avoid encountering similar penalties against them in the subsequent matches.
So, what had the Korean delegation done?
The relevant person in charge of the Korean Sports Association said in an interview: "It is impossible to raise objections to the referee's judgment, unless there is an error in the performance statistics, the rest will not accept the appeal!" ”
The Korean Sports Association has also determined that no measures have been taken to raise any objections to the day's penalty!
