Chairman Chung Eui-sun, who even claimed to be a court lady

The men's individual archery final at the 2024 Paris Olympics was simply a breathtaking moment. In the final, which led to a shot-off, Kim won the gold medal by dramatically defeating Brady Ellison of the United States. Kim's victory was decided by a mere 4.9 mm, marking one of the most dramatic moments in Olympic history.

Jang Young-sul, vice chairman of the Korea Archery Association, said he felt thrilled once again, saying, "The moment Ellison shot the arrow, I was sure Kim Woo-jin won." Vice Chairman Jang has been in charge of Korean archery for more than 30 years, and is also called the "general manager of the shadow." He recalled that the moment Ellison shot the arrow, he saw him get greedy, and that greed eventually made the arrow fall off the center of the target.

Kim Woo-jin's arrow ranged from 10 to 9, and so did Ellison's. However, Kim's arrow was 4.9 mm closer to the center of the target than Ellison's, giving Kim the gold medal. It was also the moment to complete Kim Woo-jin's triple crown.

The women's team also made a remarkable achievement. In the women's team event, the Korean team won after a shoot-off against China, completing a 10-game losing streak that has continued since the 1988 Seoul Olympics. "My most anxious history became the starting point for my best performance," Chang said, recalling the moment.

Anxiety about the performance of the women's national team continued throughout preparations for the Olympics. The women's national team consisting of Lim Si-hyun, Jeon Hoon-young, and Nam Soo-hyun had little experience in international competitions, and there were voices of concern over the situation. However, they overcame anxiety and achieved the best results. Vice Chairman Jang praised the athletes' efforts, saying, "They even prepared the anxiety perfectly, and there was a belief that the results would be as good as they prepared."

Hyundai Motor Group Chairman Chung Eui-sun, who heads the Korea Archery Association, also made headlines for his meticulous consideration. Chung personally packed eel over rice for the players and delivered it to the Jincheon National Training Center in North Chungcheong Province. He confirmed to the players that he was okay after eating the food two hours in advance, fearing that the food would not go bad while on the move. The story remained a prime example of Chung's meticulous consideration and affection.

Vice Chairman Jang Young-sul is a veteran with eight experiences in the Olympics. Describing the 2024 Paris Olympics as the "most dramatic Olympics," he expressed his excitement for achieving "unprecedented achievements" including the title in all events, the 10th consecutive women's team event, and the first men's individual multi-medal.

At this year's Olympics, the Korean archery team achieved the best results through thorough preparation and indomitable commitment. Their success will mark a milestone in the history of Korean sports.
