▲ Kiheung Korea Athletic Chairman


The International Olympic Committee (IOC) has recommended 10 members, including Lee Ki-heung, as the new committee member.

The IOC has announced that it will elect a new committee member from the IOC's 134th General Assembly in Lausanne, Switzerland, on June 24-26. I did.

It is unlikely that Ki-heung Lee will be elected as a new IOC member since few candidates for a new member who has been nominated by the executive committee have been defeated in the general election.

When Lee becomes a member of the IOC, IOC members representing Korea in the international sports arena will be increased to two with Yoo Seung-min.
