"Try 9 seconds, not my Korean record. Trust your coach, not YouTube."
Kim Kook-young, chairman of the Korean Sports Council's athletes committee, gave outspoken advice at a meeting with promising runners in track and field, his first move since his appointment. Chairman Kim was appointed as the 42nd Chairman of the Athletes' Committee of the Korean Sports Council on the 29th of last month. Starting with Chairman Kim, a new 100m track and field men's 100m track record holder, the IOC Athletes Commission, including South Korean candidates Won Yoon-jong (bobsleigh), Choi In-jeong (fencing), and Kim Woo-jin (Archery), the 'World Class' athletes' committee was organized. The intention of the president of the Korea Sports Council, Kim Yoo Seung Min, who was a former member of the IOC athletes' committee, was reflected. Kim Kook-young, chairman of the athletes' committee, visited 'future national team members' who are in the midst of training in a 35 degree Celsius heat wave on the 1st. Elementary, middle and high school sprinters from all over the country, including 27 candidates for the national team, 23 youth athletes, and 38 dream tree athletes, listened to Chairman Kim's special lecture on the site of the "2025 Future National Short-Sleeved Summer Training" held by the Korean Sports Association in Seocheon, Chungcheongnam-do until the 5th. There is no time to be frustrated that the record is not being recorded as much as he tried. We need to put our heads together with the leader to find problems and solutions and keep moving forward. It's a waste of time to be frustrated during the growth period." Kim Kook-young, who already surpassed his seniors with a time of 10.47 seconds when he was a track and field student at Pyeongchon Management High School, said, `Trust with the leader is the most important thing. I also trusted and relied on coach Shin Kwang-geun, studied everything together and solved it together. YouTube and AI are in the world, but in the end, it is the coach who knows the player best. If you trust the coach and try hard, there will be synergy. "'High jump' Woo Sang-hyuk also trusted coach Kim Do-kyun completely and overcame difficult training to become a world-class athlete. "Do you think you can break my Korean record for junior high school students?" posed the question. You shouldn't exercise with that confidence toward a junior who tilts his head"I gave a word. Then "Don't try my Korean record (10.07 seconds). My new record should be thought of as the process of going to the '9th second"Keep going with confidence. I continued to challenge myself toward the 9th second, thinking that I would break Seo Mal-gu's record unconditionally."

After mentoring, Chairman Kim smiled happily, saying, `The eyes of the dream trees were sparkling.' He also expressed his expectations for the spring day of Korean track and field. The 4x100m relay in men's track and field broke the new record set by my colleagues a year ago (38.68 seconds) in May (38.56 seconds). He also won his first gold medal ever at the Universiade and "Rather than being disappointed that my body is broken, "He's really good." Korean track and field continues to rise. Next year's Aichi and Nagoya Asian Games are also expected. I won a bronze medal at the Hangzhou Asian Games for the first time in 37 years, and I hope to make the national anthem ring this time. I expected it to be a reality, not a dream." "Our women's 400m relay (44.45 seconds) also broke Hanshin for the first time in 11 years since the 2014 Incheon Asian Games at the Gumi Asian Athletics Championships in May." In fact, it was his first time playing on the international stage in 11 years, and he produced results, and they are players with an average age of 22 years younger. If you invest a little bit, there is enough possibility." Chairman of the states Affairs Commission Kim stressed the need for support for land with a tailwind. "The atmosphere is good. In this case, I hope that I will apply harder and there will be a track and field boom, which is a basic and unpopular sport"There are only 20 athletes in the Jincheon National Training Center's track and field team quotas, including the marathon. At least 40 to 50 people should be able to train in a good environment in the athletes' village. Like Chairman Yoo Seung Min, I will also say what I have to say without paying attention to our juniors so that they can fulfill their dreams in a better environment."
