According to Yonhap News Agency on July 26, South Korean taekwondo player Lee Dae-hoon officially announced his retirement after missing a bronze medal at the Olympic games on the 25th. Lee Dae-hoon, 29, was the last Olympics he would participate in as an athlete.
Li Daxun said that after consulting with his family, team and coaches, he decided to retire directly after the end of the Olympic Games. "The Olympics are my only regret, the Asian Games and the World Championships mean much to me, but it is difficult for me to pin all my hopes on the next Olympic Games, and I should think about the younger generations."

Lee Dae-hoon said that he was originally full of confidence in this game, but the loss of the first game led to a setback in self-confidence. Ten years later, I will still remember this Olympic Games, and I hope that everyone will remember that he was a hard-working athlete. For the future plan, he said that he hopes to become a coach and strive to improve his strength. (Overseas Network Liu Qiang)
