After the finals of the women's 3000m relay short track at the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing, athletes from different countries were caught sharing joy together, giving warmth.
Short track women's 3,000m relay finals held at the Capital Indoor Stadium in Beijing, China on the 13th local time, immediately after the final, athletes from each country were placed on the simple podium.
In the women's short track 3,000m final, the Korean women's national team (Kim A-Rang, Choi Min-Jung, Lee Yu-Bin, Seo Hwi-Min) finished second and took silver medals, while the Netherlands took the gold medal and China took the bronze medal.
Athletes from each country who went down the podium after being handed 'Bingdundun' at the simple awards ceremony that followed the game stopped at the suggestion of a Chinese player.
It was just a suggestion to take a commemorative photo.

When one of the Chinese players took out their cell phone and offered to take a picture together, the players gathered together as if waiting, smiling and taking a picture.
After that, Arang Kim took out her cell phone and took a video together, and the Dutch players took turns taking selfies.
After the photo shoot, the athletes shared a hug, and congratulated them without being obsessed with the color of their medals, demonstrating their friendship as short-track teammates rather than competitors.
Netizens who saw this showed positive reactions such as "It's nice to see", "This is the Olympics", "It's warm and it makes me cry", "We welcome this kind of friendship", and "It's good to see the sports spirit".
This is a 'news pick'.
