This is the first time in eight years that a Korean shooter has won an Olympic medal since Jin Jong-oh in the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Games.

The 10m air pistol finals are conducted in a format where eight athletes shoot 10 shots first, then shoot 2 shots each, and the athlete with the lowest score is eliminated one by one.

In the competition that day, Oh Ye-jin and Kim Ye-ji (Imsil County Office) survived until the end, with Oh Ye-jin taking the gold medal and Kim Ye-ji taking the silver medal.

It has been 12 years since Korean shooters won gold and silver in the 50m pistol event at the 2012 London Games, when Jin Jong-oh won gold and Choi Young-rae won silver.

With the second gold medal for the Korean team following Oh Sang-wook (Daejeon City Hall) in the men’s sabre individual fencing event the day before, Korea is currently tied for third place with France in the medal rankings with two golds, two silvers, and one bronze as of 11:15 p.m.

Australia and China are in first and second place with three golds each.

On this day, our country cruised to the finals in the women’s team archery event held at Les Invalides in Paris, France.

The women’s team, consisting of Lim Si-hyeon (Korea National Sport University), Nam Su-hyeon (Suncheon City Hall), and Jeon Hoon-yeong (Incheon City Hall), defeated Taiwan 6-2 (52-51 52-56 54-53 56-54) in the quarterfinals.

Then, in the semifinals, they won 5-4 (57-53 52-53 57-58 59-51 26-23) in a close match that included a shoot-off against the Netherlands, securing the silver medal.

The final will be held on the 29th at 00:11 Korean time between Korea and the winner of the match between China and Mexico.
