Every morning at 6 am, the long day of the modern pentathlon team begins.



After sprinting for 800m, repeat shooting and run more than 15km until you are out of breath.



After breakfast, the swimming pool continues to swim for two hours, and in the afternoon we go to the riding training ground.



While training on a randomly assigned horse sometimes leads to a dizzying fall, you must still communicate with the horse and overcome obstacles.



Even after running all 5 sports in 2 hours of fencing training, weight training must be completed by 9 pm to finish the day.



The body becomes exhausted.



[Jeon Woong-tae / Modern pentathlon national team: I honestly think I'm going to die. I feel like my real body is going to be shattered, but I’m training with this thought after only 30 days, and if I keep (training) even when I fall, I will do it again.]



The ace of the modern pentathlon team aiming for the first Olympic medal in history is Jeon Woong-tae. .



He won gold medals at the 2018 World Cup and Asian Games one after another, taking first place in the world, and he also won the World Cup held in April and is looking forward to the gold medal.



[Jeon Woong-tae/Modern Pentathlon National Team: (After the Olympics) I feel like tears will come to my eyes when I hear these words, 'Thank you very much for learning about the wonderful sport of the modern pentathlon'.]



2017 World Championships and 2018 World Cup Finals Jin-Hwa Jeong, who shines in the movie, also competes with Woong-Tae Jeon for a medal.



[Jeon Woong-tae/Modern pentathlon national team: Because there are 3 medals, I think that both of them can go up (on the podium). I hope to share the joy of winning medals together fighting! I'm ashamed. Haha]



Women's team Kim Seon-woo and Kim Se-hee, the Korean modern pentathlon athletes, are advancing toward a new history by overcoming hell training every day.
