First, the 8 o'clock news starts with the medal news.
Added a valuable bronze medal in fencing.
In the women's saber team match, Korea overturned a whopping 11 points and achieved a miraculous comeback victory.
First of all, this is reporter Kwon Jong-oh.
<Reporter> The
world's fourth-ranked Republic of Korea, composed of 33-year-old gold medalists Kim Ji-yeon and Yoon Ji-soo, Choi Su-yeon, and Seo Ji-yeon, who were gold medalists at the London Olympics, wrote a drama in the bronze medal match against Italy, the world's second-placed gold medalist.
In a game that was unilaterally pushed back from the beginning and scored 45 points, it was 11 points behind 26-15 at one point in the 6th round.
While the eldest sister Kim Ji-yeon loudly encouraged her, the younger brothers took the lead in the great reversal.
Yoon Ji-soo caught up with a frightening momentum and narrowed the gap to 4 points by scoring 11 points while his opponent scored 5 points, and Seo Ji-yeon, a candidate who was replaced by Choi Su-yeon, the main member, dramatically overturned the trend.
And ace Jiyeon Kim, who had been sluggish in the beginning, finished the last 9 rounds neatly and ended up winning 45-42.
When the bronze medal was confirmed, the players jumped onto the piste all at once, hugged each other and enjoyed immense joy.
Jiyeon Kim stood on the podium again after 9 years.
