The Korea Sports Association (hereinafter referred to as the Sports Association) issued an official statement on poor management, including the illegal leakage of live ammunition for shooting matches, pointed out by lawmaker Jin Jong-oh (power of the people) at the parliamentary audit of the National Assembly's Culture, Sports and Gymnasium.

The Korea Sports Association said in a press release on the afternoon of the 30th that it will feel responsible for the management and supervision of the Korea Shooting Federation and prepare thorough fact-finding and system improvement measures. The sports association then launched an investigation into the Korean Shooting Federation, which revealed problems with the management of live ammunition for shooting matches, with the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism. For about a month, the Korea Shooting Federation will closely investigate the gun and live ammunition operation process and administrative matters to find out the truth about the live ammunition leak and come up with improvement plans for strict management of live ammunition for games.

It plans to establish a real-time integrated management system to compensate for problems in management methods, such as the current status of live ammunition pumping and movement at shooting range storage centers nationwide, and consult with related ministries to secure related budgets as soon as possible to develop a shooting range player recognition system.




The sports association records and manages the use of live ammunition for athletes every day, with an automatic surveillance security system and a 24-hour work system for managers at the shooting range of Jincheon National Training Center"In the wake of this incident, we conducted a full investigation of live ammunition and an on-site inspection of security facilities once again to confirm that there was no abnormality in the shooting range of the athlete's village." he said.
