Following thorough quarantine guidelines, I had to relax outside the stadium and enter 30 minutes before the start of the game, but Seo-young Kim started the actual match after 10 months with a bright expression.
I participated in the condition check car in the 100m butterfly stroke, not my main sport, and the record was more than expected.
It overwhelmed its competitors with explosive speed, hitting the touchpad first in 57 seconds 87.
It reached the top with a record of 0.8 seconds behind Ahn Se-hyun's Korean record, a personal best and 9th in the world this year.

Seo-young Kim, who focused all on the Tokyo Olympics, had a hard time with Corona 19.
During the field training in Japan in February, the corona spread and the training grounds were moved.After returning to Korea, the training ground Gyeongsan became a special management area for infectious diseases, and there were many times when it was difficult to break the current. The hope of the Tokyo Olympics medal continued.

Seo-young Kim is going to hunt for a gold medal once again in 200m, the main sport of today (15th).
