The Chinese short track speed skating team performed well in this Winter Olympics, and the replacement of the old and new is about to be successfully completed, and the reason why the performance of mainland athletes has improved so quickly is that they have good coaches. Since Wang Meng retired from the country, he has discovered a lot of good seedlings, as well as good coaches, and the tacit understanding between coaches and athletes has raised the overall strength of the Chinese team to a higher level, and then we will talk about the head coach and technical coach of the two speed skating teams from South Korea.
Ahn Hyun-so
The Korean short track speed skating factional struggle is very serious, and even when Ahn Hyun-so was in Korea, the seniors in the team told him that he especially needed the gold medal and asked him to give the gold medal to himself, but Ahn Hyun-so did not obey. After the game, the seniors hit him in public on the head. These are still small things, before 2011, he represented the Korean team, in the 2006 Winter Olympics a person won three gold and one bronze, but it is the man who brought glory to the Republic of Korea, but was abandoned by his country, no speed skating team took him in, and finally became an unemployed vagrant, forced to accept the olive branch thrown by Russia, he loves South Korea, the country just does not like the environment of speed skating, he just wants to stick to the cause he loves, fortunately after coming to China, He can continue to hold on to his career in an absolutely warm environment and help Chinese athletes improve their strengths.
Kim Sun-tae
Although He is still a Korean, Coach Kim is really disappointed with the Korean short track speed skating environment, and he has been working with China since 2002 to discover many good seedlings of short track speed skating for China. He did not believe in strict teachers and high disciples, so he always taught gently. He once personally wrote to Zhou Yang to encourage him not to be discouraged, he believes that coaches not only need skills, but more importantly, communicate with athletes, athletes have lost the game, they are also very unhappy, must tell them what kind of place they lost, so that athletes can break through themselves.
Although the two coaches are not Chinese, their love of short track speed skating is hot and has nothing to do with nationality. And he is sincerely fond of the athletes of our country, otherwise it would not have been possible to hold him and kiss him after Ren Ziwei won the championship.
