It has to be said that although the Korean short track speed skating team has a bad reputation, they do still have strength. The beijing winter olympics short track speed skating event has all ended, and on the last match day, the Chinese team did not win any medals. This also allowed the South Korean short track speed skating team, which had not performed well in the previous opening stage, to surpass the Chinese short track speed skating team in the last minute and become the first in the short track speed skating event. However, although the Korean short track speed skating team rushed to the first place, they encountered an extremely embarrassing scene on the podium of the short track speed skating 5000 meters final.
In the short track speed skating competition of this year's Beijing Winter Olympics, the Korean team continued their image to be the same, and all kinds of discordant behaviors and news were one after another. However, although the Korean team performed very badly in the opening stage, as the game progressed, the strength of the Korean team was reflected. In the end, with a score of 2 gold and 3 silver, they became the first place in the short track speed skating event, and this first place, also after 2018, the Korean team won the first place again. The Chinese short track speed skating team fell behind south Korea in 2018 and once again lagged behind South Korea in this event. However, it is worth mentioning that at the 2010 Winter Olympics, the Chinese team won 4 gold medals in this project, ranking first in the list.
In fact, the Chinese team was still in the first place in this project before the last match day. But the South Korean team came later, surpassing the Chinese team to the first position. In fact, the Chinese team has a good chance to suppress the South Korean short track speed skating team, but in the men's short track speed skating 5000 meters of this gold point, Sun Long made a serious mistake, resulting in the Chinese team not only missed the gold medal, but also did not get a medal, and finally ranked first from the bottom. The South Korean team performed well, winning the silver medal, and the gold medal was won by the Canadian players.
However, the Korean players who performed well saw a scene that made them very embarrassed on the podium, and they could only laugh bitterly and applaud helplessly. It turned out that at the award ceremony, the canadian athletes who won the championship made a collective action of wiping the podium with their hands in front of the Athletes of the Korean team before reaching the highest podium. The Korean athletes next to them were indeed very embarrassed to see the Canadian team do this, but out of courtesy, they had to laugh bitterly and applaud some of them.
Why does the South Korean team feel embarrassed, while the other athletes on the side do not? That's because the Athletes of the South Korean Team are all too familiar with the move. In the Winter Olympics 4 years ago, the South Korean team took a big advantage in the issue of penalties, and many controversial penalties ultimately benefited from the South Korean team. As a result, after a controversial penalty, the Canadian players made a collective hand wipe on the podium before they stepped on the podium to protest against the South Korean team. This time, many netizens believe that this is canada's response to the failure to win the gold medal four years ago, embarrassing the South Korean team.
In fact, the athletes of the Korean team have made such a joke once before. This was originally used to satirize the action of the Korean team, but it was used by South Korean speed skater Che Minkui on the podium of the speed skating 500 final. In fact, speed skating is completely different from short track speed skating. Speed skating is without physical contact, it is all about who is fast, so there is basically no controversy about penalties. However, South Korea's Che Minkui made a hand-wiping move on the podium after losing to China's Gao Tingyu. In fact, this is ignorance and a kind of irony to oneself.
Now, in front of the South Korean athletes, the Canadian team has once again made such a hand-wiping action on the podium. Undoubtedly a satire on them, it embarrassed the Korean team. But in fact, if you want to get the respect of others, you must first learn to respect others.
