‘Kim Seong-ju x Jang Hye-jin’ found a new winning formula
At the 2022 Qatar World Cup, caster Kim Seong-ju, who ranked first in viewership ratings by working with commentator Ahn Jung-hwan, created another synergy by meeting archery commentator Jang Hye-jin.
On this day, MBC broadcasted from Paris the Korean women's archery team quarterfinals to the final match by caster Kim Seong-ju and commentator Jang Hye-jin, who won two gold medals at the 2016 Rio Olympics and is loved for her empathetic commentary.
At the moment when the gold medal was confirmed, commentator Jang Hye-jin could not hold back tears of emotion and said, "This is all three athletes' first Olympics, and the burden of losing 10 games in a row must have been considerable, but I am proud of them for confidently overcoming those difficult moments.
In the women's 10m air pistol shooting in Korea, Oh Ye-jin and Kim Ye-ji won gold and silver medals together, hitting the first gold medal in air pistol history.
“It was a beautiful competition between Korean athletes,” he said, and commentator Kim Jong-hyun added meaning by leaving a touching message, saying, “This match will have been a great motivation for future athletes dreaming of becoming shooters.”
In badminton, South Korea's players participating in men's and women's doubles, mixed doubles, and women's singles continued to win in the group rounds.
