How important is the Asian Games gold medal to Korean athletes? The fate of six people has been rewritten!

The importance of the Asian Games gold medal to Korean athletes: exemption from military service and national honor.

According to Korean law, male citizens must perform military service for two years before reaching the age of 20. For many professional sports athletes, their golden competitive state coincides with the time of military service, which has a great impact on their career. Therefore, winning a gold medal in the Asian Games can help them avoid military service, so that they can have more time and space to devote themselves to professional training and competitions and prolong their careers.

The gold medal in the Asian Games is also a national honor for Korean athletes and a recognition of their efforts and achievements. South Korea attaches great importance to national honor. Therefore, winning the gold medal in the Asian Games has greatly improved the personal reputation and status of athletes.
