At the 19th Olympic Games, the Korean speed skating team experienced what it means to be extremely happy and sad.

In the men’s 3,000-meter relay final of men’s roller speed skating at the Hangzhou Asian Games on the 2nd, South Korea’s Zheng Zheyuan thought he would win in the final sprint because he had been leading and did not actively make any finishing moves. Instead, he got up early to cheer and celebrate. It was this celebration that caused him to slow down slightly, and he was overtaken by Taiwanese player Huang Yulin who was sprinting hard. Huang tried his best to put his foot first to press the line, and finally beat South Korea by 0.01 seconds to win the gold medal.

It’s a ceremony… Korean roller men’s relay wins silver medal by 0.01 seconds ㅣThe moment he was confident of first place and raised both hands to score the goal, he lost the gold medal by a narrow margin of 0.01 seconds to the Taiwanese athlete who sprinted all the way to the end. ‘It’s not over until it’s completely over.’ The words come to mind again.

1. Roller racing will be canceled in the next Asian Games, which means that if they don’t win the championship this time, they will not be exempted from military service.
2. I really want to beat him to death.
3. If it is my own fault, I will definitely convince him. I have to accept this result myself. I have to bear the responsibility for other people’s mistakes. I will be really angry to death. 4.
That person may not want to return to the country. He will be scolded for many years.
5. I will think of it every time I am in pain after joining the army. This game, hahahahahaha
6. It’s not like I’m always far ahead, I’m just a little faster than Taiwan. How dare I celebrate in advance?
7. Because of my teammates’ mistakes, I have to enlist in the army. Just thinking about it makes me angry.
8. Rushing into the army, hahahahahaha
9. How will he overcome this humiliation in his life
? 10. You are so patriotic.
11. From him, I learned that people must be humble.
12. Originally, I thought he was very pitiful, and I was worried about him. I was scolded. After watching the video, I just want to say that I deserve it.
13. It’s not too late to celebrate after you cross the line. I can’t understand it. This is a game, a critical moment that determines the outcome in 0.01 seconds. 14. He will always live
. In hell, there is no one to blame. After all, it was his own fault. 15. It seems that he
only tried hard to practice the celebration movements
. 16. It shows the mental state of Korean men very well.
17. There is really no way not to scold him. It’s not his own game, this is a team game.
18. It’s so disappointing. He lost not because of his skills, but because he was too sloppy.
