South Korea continues to apply for international arbitration for sport and offers to meet with IOC President Bach! #Islamic Skating Federation rejects South Korea's Hungarian team's appeal #According to The South Korean Asian Economic Herald, the Korean Winter Olympic delegation held an emergency press conference at the main press center of the Beijing Winter Olympics today to formally protest to Thomas Bach, the president of the International Olympic Committee (IOC), about the "unjust sentence" suffered by South Korean short-track speed skaters during the competition on February 7.

Yoon Hong-geun, president of the Korean Ice Alliance and head of the South Korean delegation to the Winter Olympics, said at the press conference: "IOC members Lee Ki-heung and Yoo Seung-min have issued interview requests to Bach and will strongly call on the IOC to prevent the recurrence of similar 'unfair penalties'. All possible avenues will be sought to resort to the International Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS). ”

Yin Honggen also said: "This game will accept a common judgment of 8 billion people around the world, and at yesterday's competition site, the delegation has expressed strong protest and sent a letter to the International Skating Union (ISU) and the International Olympic Committee to protest the unfair penalty. But the International Skating Federation rejected the South Korean team's complaint that morning.

The report pointed out that in the semifinals of the men's 1000 meters of short track speed skating at the Beijing Winter Olympics, South Korean players Huang Daxian and Li Junrui ranked first and second in the group respectively to advance to the final, but both were cancelled by the referee on the grounds of fouls, and the South Korean men's speed skating team was finally wiped out in this event.
