Ha-ram Woo, who finished 12th in the semi-finals and struggled to reach the finals, had a smooth start to the finals.
By embroidering brilliant aerial stunts, he started in a tie for 5th in the 1st period, went solo 5th in the 2nd period, and performed the best performance in the 3rd period and climbed to 4th place alone.
He perfectly digested the high-level acting that goes around 4 and a half times, and received a high score of 91.20, raising expectations for the medal.
In the 4th period, it was 82.25 points higher, chasing 3rd place UK's Roar by only 1.8 points, but the mistake in the 5th period was regrettable.
We increased the difficulty level compared to the semifinals to increase the number of wins, but the acquisition was not smooth, so we only scored 68.4 points.
There was a difference between medals and points, but Haram Woo ended the final period with a neat performance.
After the world's most powerful Chinese athletes and the Rio Olympics silver medalist British Roer, it ranked fourth in the history of Korean athletes.
[Woo Haram / National Diving Team: It is an honor to be 4th in the Olympics and I feel like I have followed a lot (to the top of the world), so I don't think it's a bad feeling.]
Haram Woo, who reached the final on the 10m platform at the Rio Olympics at the age of 18, for the first time in history, has grown steadily, finishing fourth at the world championships and approaching the medal right at the Olympics.
The challenge is not over.
Haram Woo will soar again for the first medal on the 10m platform starting on the 6th.
