Ha Ji-min
Ha Ji-min (Haeundae-gu Office), the ‘living legend’ of the Korean yachting world, left for Marseille, France, the ‘land of the decisive battle’, to compete in the Paris Olympics.
Ha Ji-min departed the country via Incheon International Airport on the 13th. His destination is the port city of Marseille, where the Paris Olympic sailing competition will be held.
Before boarding the plane, Ha Ji-min said through the Korea Sailing Association, “This is my fifth consecutive Olympics appearance. As I’ve always said, I want to make up for the shortcomings and regrets from the last competition and show my skills this time to stand a little higher.”
He added, “I have been challenging myself in the Olympics for nearly 20 years. It is important to get good results, but it is also important to show that I am inspiring the next generation by continuing to challenge myself without giving up.” He added, “All I can do is not give up and do my best.” 안전놀이터
Ha Ji-min, who rides a single-seat dinghy yacht (one that does not have an engine or cabin and sails with the power of the wind), is the best yachtsman in Asia, not just in Korea.
They won gold medals in Guangzhou in 2010, Incheon in 2014, and Jakarta Palembang in 2018, making them three consecutive Asian Games champions, and took a silver medal in Hangzhou last year.
Born in 1989, Ha Ji-min is also an ‘Olympic veteran’ who has competed on the Olympic stage four consecutive times, starting with the 2008 Beijing Games and ending with the 2020 Tokyo Games in 2021.
Her best result was seventh place at the Tokyo Olympics. Ha Ji-min is the first Korean sailor to finish in the top 10 at the Olympics.
Ha Ji-min, who has qualified for the Olympics five times in a row through this Paris Games, stood shoulder to shoulder with legends in each event, including Lee Eun-cheol, Jin Jong-oh (both shooting), Yun Gyeong-shin (men’s handball), and Oh Seong-ok (women’s handball, all five times in a row).
The Paris Olympic sailing competition will be held in Marseille, a representative port city in southern France bordering the Mediterranean Sea.
Among the yacht events starting on the 28th of this month (local time), the men’s Laser class, in which Ha Ji-min will compete, will have its final winner determined by combining the results of 11 races over 6 days starting on August 1st. 카지노사이트 추천
