Seon-mi Lee (21, Gangwon Provincial Office), who held her first Olympics with a trembling heart, planned 'next'.
In the women's 87kg class A group event at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics held at the Tokyo International Forum on the 2nd, Lee Seon-mi took fourth place with a raise of 125 kg, a jerk of 152 kg, and a total of 277 kg.
The total record of Sarah Robles (USA), who took third place on the day, was 282 kg (increase 128 kg, jerk 154 kg).
It is not too far from the 2nd place Emily Campbell (UK)'s total record of 283 kg (increase 122 kg, jerk 161 kg).
Lee Seon-mi said, "I ran the game stably with the thought of succeeding in both the first to third raises and the first to third periods. I was expecting 'if I get all 6 and if I'm lucky, I'll be able to win a bronze medal'" said.
The Tokyo Olympics is the first Olympic Games that Sunmi Lee has held in her career.
He suffered a back injury last year, and after a long period of rehabilitation, he managed to qualify for the Olympics and competed for medals.
Lee Seon-mi said, "Still, I recently recovered about 95%, so I didn't play a very disappointing match."
He continued, "It's my first Olympics, so I won't be disappointed."
After winning two consecutive World Junior Championships in 2017 and 2019, he said, "Other competitions and the Olympics were completely different. I was more nervous."
Although it is possible to feel very tired after a big competition, Lee Seon-mi said that she intends to resume training soon.
Lee Seon-mi said, "The Asian Games will be held next year and the Paris Olympics will be held in 2024.
