Ahn Se-young can’t stand up. She injures her right knee and receives first aid. He barely got into the game with a bandage on him.

Ahn Se-young struggled to win the first set, but lost the second set and was in danger.

Ahn Se-young’s strategy was successful.

After enduring so desperately, Chen Yufei’s stamina was exhausted.

Set score 2-1.

“It was unfair and a little sad, but I think the only thing I could think of was to keep my head together and try to figure it out somehow.”

Ahn Se-young started playing badminton in the first grade of elementary school, and from then on, her tenacity was extraordinary.

“Even though I was lying down from exhaustion, if the coach told me to get up and do it again, I would get up and do it again, and if he told me to do it again, I would get up again and do it again for almost an hour.”

Se-young Ahn will challenge for the Career Grand Slam at next year’s Paris Olympics.

Today, the badminton team returned with seven medals, including two gold medals, overcoming the humiliation of no medals five years ago.
