[Asian Games] Fencing Team Heo Jun and Choi In-jeong Return the Taegeuk Mark, “I was Happy so Far”





Final farewell words at the gold medalist's press conference: "I hope you do well, juniors."

Men's fencing foil Heo Jun (35, Gwangju City Hall) and women's fencing epee In-jeong Choi (33, Gyeryong City Hall) said a bitter farewell as they returned their Taegeuk flags for the last time at the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games.

On the 28th, the two players attended the gold medalists' press conference held at the Sports Diplomacy Lounge of the Korean Sports Council at the Grand New Century Hotel in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, China, and expressed their thoughts on ending their careers as national team members.

Heo Jun said, “I did my best and have no regrets,” and added, “I hope that the junior men’s foil players will do well in the future.

I hope they will overcome it well.” 온라인카지노사이트

Choi In-jeong read the thoughts typed on her cell phone, saying, “I prepared this because I thought it would be my last time today.”

He recalled, “This competition was my last dance as a member of the national team.

I received the Korea Sports Council Sports Award in February of this year and expressed my thoughts that I would become a player worthy of the award, but it did not work out as I wanted, so I was upset.”

He added, "Fortunately, I won two gold medals in this competition, and I am happy to be able to decorate the final stage happily."

Heo Jun won the men's foil team event on the 27th with Lee Gwang-hyeon (Hwaseong City Hall), Ha Tae-gyu (Daejeon Urban Development Corporation), and Lim Cheol-woo (Seongbuk-gu Office), winning the final gold medal.

Choi In-jeong also won the women's epee individual event on the 24th, followed by the team event with Kang Young-mi (Gwangju Metropolitan City Seo-gu Office), Lee Hye-in (Gangwon Provincial Office), and Song Se-ra (Busan Metropolitan City Hall) on the 27th, earning her two championships.

The two players who dominated an era in Korean fencing will end their careers as national team players with this competition.

Fellow players who attended the event cheered on the two players as they walked their final journey.

Ha Tae-gyu said, "Heo Jun and I have been on the national team together for over 10 years.

It's sad to hear that it's going to end like this.

Still, I think I'll have to let him go.

I want to say you worked hard."

Lim Cheol-woo said, "Every time I got a bad result in a game, I asked Heo Jun a lot of questions, and I remember him telling me to come to my senses rather than saying nice things.

I was like a 'fact bomber,' but I received a lot of help along the way. Thank you."

“It does,” he said.

Lee Gwang-hyun said, “Heo Jun and I have something in common: we are of small physical condition.

So he saw and learned a lot from his brother.

He was a player with a great sense of responsibility within the national team.”

The female foil players also gave their final greetings to Choi In-jeong, who was leaving.

Kang Young-mi, the eldest member of the national team, said, "Injeong and I are so close that we can say we were a couple from a past life," and encouraged, "I have a lot to learn from Injeong, who has been the ace of our national team since the 2012 London Olympics."

Song Se-ra,” whom she faced in the finals of the individual event and joined forces with in the team event, was a cold-hearted but affectionate older sister.

“She was grateful,” he said.

Lee Hye-in also said, “She was a player I could learn a lot from.”
