On February 13, Beijing time, the men's 500 meters of the short track speed skating focus event of the Beijing Winter Olympics was all over, and the final champion was Hungary's Liu Shaoang, south Korea's Huang Daxian, who had a great call to win the championship before, was disqualified because of a foul in the semi-finals, and China's Wu Dajing was also affected and regretted that he did not qualify for the Group A final by his opponents behind him, losing the opportunity to defend his title. Huang Daxian apologized to the Canadian player who was fouled by him after the match, but did not say a word about Wu Dajing, who was affected by his knife lifting action and did not qualify for the final.
Hwang Dae-hyun is the core athlete in Short Track Speed Skating in South Korea, having previously won the 1500m race and one of his strengths in the 500m, where he finished runner-up at the last Winter Olympics.
In the quarterfinals, Huang Daxian overtook the 5th place all the way to the 2nd place in the last corner, and one of the key factors was the "little boy" Azhgaliyev of Kazakhstan who was called a blind fight by Wang Mao, who squeezed Belgian Steyon Deme and caused Huang Daxian to surpass these 2 people in one fell swoop, but Azhgaliev also advanced with the 3rd place in the group.
In the semi-finals, China's Wu Dajing was in the same group as Huang Daxian, and before the game, Wang Meng said that he should be wary of Huang Daxian's actions, but Wu Dajing could not escape this fate in the end.
In the last corner, Huang Daxian's inner line overtaking foul knocked the then second-ranked Canadian Steven Dubois off the track, and Huang Daxian then had a bright ice knife action with his leg raised back, which directly interfered with Wu Dajing's normal sliding, Wu Dajing changed lanes and was overtaken by Azh galiyev behind him, and finally Wu Dajing missed the Group A final, and Azh galiev advanced to the Group A final. Dubois, who was fouled, was sent to the Group A final and won a bronze medal.
In the quarterfinals, Azhgaliyev saved Huang Daxian, who sent Azhgaliev, who was originally ranked first, to the final in the semifinals by fouling himself and influencing Wu Dajing.
After the game, Wong Said He apologized to Canadian Steven DuBois, and although he failed, it was better to risk fouls than to try at all, and Wong said bluntly that he had no regrets. However, for Wu Dajing, who was influenced by himself, Huang Daxian did not say anything at all. Huang Daxian once again wrote a heavy stroke in the history of the sino-Korean short track speed skating.
