[+251, -15] Why is everyone so angry? Is it so wrong for athletes to want to make money?? It's not that they can't win medals… These days, athletes are all affiliated with their own companies, so they don't get to take 100% of the profits… And I'm sure they're managing their own training out of necessity. For your opinion.

– [+16, -1] Koreans can't stand other people doing better than them haha.

– [+26, -1] The person who really chose Yeji Kim was Tesla, but why do people hate her..??

– [+40, -5] I also remember UFC athlete Chan-Sung Jeong complaining about this. He had to maintain a training schedule and earn a living, but the public criticism that he was appearing on TV and not being able to focus on training was too harsh, and then he was able to do it in a shorter period of time by appearing on TV. He explained that it worked out in the end and didn't interfere with his training because he was able to make more money and consequently spend more time training.

[+101, -224] Although he received a silver medal in a category that no one expected, he was eliminated in a category that had high expectations. Of course, I am currently enjoying stardom due to a chance moment when I struck a really good pose, but… that is all. Numbers are important in sports. Either way, she ended up getting a silver medal, so hopefully she can enjoy her current fame and go back to training next time to show that her skills were no fluke.

– [+142, -10] She shed blood and tears to get to where she is, so how can you call her efforts a “fluke”?

– [+108, -8] People like you don't always realize the amount of effort it took to get the numbers you're obsessed with.

[+84, -10] congratulation! A silver medal is already so amazing, but she has also brought great honor to our country!

[+42, -6] I'm proud of you for doing so well. I hope to see you again next time~

[+9, -3] The jealousy of Korean men is so scary

[+6, -2] Only a loser expects athletes to only make money through training… Why do we hate it so much when athletes make money doing other things?

[+4, -0] Yes, you have to row while the water flows

[+2, -2] I hope she takes advantage of every opportunity that comes her way. Just do it all. She can always train later and do her best when the time comes. The prize money and pension she gets from winning are not enough to sustain her for the rest of her life. None of you reading this right now can tell us exactly what opportunity you see. The biggest lesson I've learned in life is that no matter what happens, you have to take the opportunity when it comes. They may never come again. Especially in the future if her skills are not up to par. She will be forgotten and that will be the end of it.

[+2, -0] Haha, I finally caught it after Elon Musk tweeted it.

[+1, -1] Everyone just hates me because they’re jealous ^^

[+1, -1] Life is about one-shot swaps…

[+0, -1] Wow that gives me goosebumps haha. It shows how far charm can take you in life.
