The Korean men's recurve team, consisting of Kim Woo-jin (Cheongju City Hall), Kim Je-deok (Yecheon County Office) and Lee Woo-seok (Kolong), beat the U.S. 6-0 (56-55, 57-55, 59-56) in the men's team final at the 2025 Gwangju World Archery Championships held at Gwangju May 18 Democratic Square on the 10th. South Korea has won three consecutive games since the 2021 Yankton Games.
After the game, Kim Woo-jin said "We focused on the team event. I feel very good because I feel like I got the result. However, players are not aiming just for this tournament. There are more goals left in the future. I think it's one game where we can grow further." Kim Woo-jin won his 10th gold medal in the World Championships.
Kim Je-deok "The goal was to win the team event. I'm proud to have done it. It was done in a competition in Korea, too. This is not the end. I will do my best to participate in the next Asian Games, Olympics."
Lee said, `It was my first time running a competition in Korea. I feel comfortable because I won the team event, which was my goal. I was worried a lot because I wasn't in a good condition. I think he won the gold medal because he covered it," he said. Lee Woo-seok was reportedly in poor condition, such as going to the emergency room ahead of the competition.
There was a dizzying scene during the game. There was a change in the order in the third set. Lee Woo-suk cheered up before entering the third set. At that time, (Kim) Jeduk's hand and mine were slightly replaced. That's when the finger tip was pressed. Both were overzealous because they were shaking and getting their hands on each other. However, I practiced even in such a situation, so I got a good result. I practiced while changing the order. I think the practice came out based on the results, so I should practice more like that next time," he said with a smile.
