On March 14, Beijing time, South Korean media CBS news, former head coach of the Chinese short track speed skating team Jin Shantai in an interview with the media, for the first time talked about Cui Minjing and Shen Xixi.
He believes that these two people are not easy, especially Shen Xixi. Everyone was responsible for the mistakes of that year, and it was a pity that they did not help them win the women's 1000 meters.
When Kim Sun-tae was coaching in South Korea, he was in charge of the men's team, not the women's team. But he still wanted to say sorry to the two female players.
Kim Sun-tae is an outlier in short-track speed skating, having coached in three places in China, Japan and South Korea, and has found outstanding players. He has led men's teams and captured women's teams.
For the situation of the Korean team, Kim knows better than others, but many words he did not express directly, but said them very euphemistically.
Due to his average strength during his career and not representing other teams, Kim Sun-tae is much more popular in South Korea than Ahn Hyun-so.
The reporter's first question was the collision between Cui Minjing and Shen Xixi at the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics.
In this regard, Coach Kim Sun-tae said that everyone was working hard together to prepare for the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics and work together. Hearing the rumor news of the so-called "deliberate bumping into people", he could only say that he was sorry, but it was not true.
He said it was an open secret that the two were not in a good relationship in order to compete for world number one. But it didn't reach the point where you were dead or alive. Shen Xixi and Cui Minjing were both trained by Coach Zhao Zaifan since childhood, as well as other coaches. The two know each other very well, and they are teammates in team matches.
Here, Kim Sun-tae said that it is difficult to evaluate things between them positively, after all, he is leading a men's team.
Kim Sun-tae said: "Choi Min-jing and Shen Xi-hee were originally players from an agency company, and then Choi Min-jing jumped to other companies, and Shen Xixi remained in her original company." ”
The implication is that behind the competitive relationship between the two, there are brokerage companies competing with each other.
When asked about Coach A (the person whose wife exposed Shen Xixi's identity as a junior) and Cho Jae-fan, Kim Sun-tae wisely said that players should keep their distance from the coaches. After that, he didn't say it.
Kim Sun-tae also revealed that in January 2018, a Korean brother came to see them. Everyone was there, except for Shen Xixi. The outside world said that Shen Xixi had a cold. But Kim Sun-tae said that Shen Xixi's face at that time was swollen by Zhao Zaifan. As the head coach of the athletes himself, he did not protect the team members and wanted to say sorry to Shen Xixi.
Later, Kim Sun-tae included Shen Xixi's name in the winter Olympics list and said he wanted to support her, but after the game in Pyeongchang, Shen Xixi became the protagonist of the media one after another.
Kim Sun-tae said the situation for the South Korean team was too complicated. Relatively speaking, coaching in Japan and China is much easier.
The people of the Korean Ice Alliance once told him that the brokerage company was in a bad relationship, and it was difficult to find a neutral to teach.
Therefore, in this Winter Olympics, South Korea did not choose the head coach, and also exposed many problems such as no equipment coach. This is also one of the reasons why the strength of the South Korean team has declined rapidly.
