Choi Yong-joo, a South Korean short-track speed skating referee, has now been disqualified from refereeing the International Skating Federation for complaining at the Beijing Winter Olympics about the unfair sentencing of South Korean athletes. However, Cui Longjiu is still hard-mouthed and proud to speak bluntly!
At the Beijing Winter Olympics, the South Korean short track speed skating team opened low and went high, at the beginning, the South Korean team could not even get a medal, at that time, Choi Longjiu was the leader of the South Korean short track speed skating support group, the South Korean team performed poorly, the Korean media believed that the South Korean players suffered unfair punishment, Choi Longjiu also publicly expressed similar views, saying that Hwang Dae-hyun and Lee Joon-sui suffered unfair punishment.
Later, the performance of the Korean short track speed skating team improved, and finally relied on The Gold Medal won by Choi Min Jing and Huang Daxian each, in the short track speed skating, the South Korean team pressed the Chinese team, ranking 1st!
After all, he was the short-track speed skating referee of the International Skating Federation, but he helped the South Korean team speak, which violated the rules of the International Skating Federation. In the end, the International Skating Union announced that it would deprive referee Cui Longjiu of his international referee qualifications! However, Cui Longjiu was still "hard-mouthed" and said bluntly, "It doesn't matter, I know I will definitely be punished, I am still proud!" ”
Of course, objectively speaking, the strength of the Korean short track speed skating team is still very strong! At this month's short track speed skating World Championships, the South Korean team won 5 gold, ranking 1st in the medal table, and 4 golds for the Hungarian team, of which Choi Min Jing won 4 gold. In addition, the Chinese team did not participate in this World Championship!
Look at the age of the core of Korean short track speed skating, Choi Min-jing is 23 years old, and Hwang Dae-hyun is 22 years old, both of which are very young.
As for the Chinese short track speed skating team, the prospects are worrying, as the two veterans of the Chinese short track speed skating team, Wu Dajing and Fan Kexin agreed to fight for another 4 years to participate in the 2026 Milan Winter Olympics, "as long as the national team needs, as long as the body allows, we will always stand on the ice rink until the last moment!" "But in fact, Wu Dajing is already 27 years old, and Fan Kexin is 28 years old, and after 4 years, they are all veterans over thirty years old."
