A photo released by Mr. A, who watched the quarterfinals to the finals of the men’s individual archery event at the 2024 Paris Olympics held at the Invalides Stadium in Paris, France on the 4th (local time). People wearing the ‘Team Korea’ uniform and necklaces with the words ‘○○ Sports Association’ are visible.

It has been alleged that some sports organization officials were rude to their spectators, such as yelling and provoking opposing athletes, at the archery stadium of the 2024 Paris Olympics.

On the 6th, a review was posted on a social media thread by Mr. A, who had watched the quarterfinals and finals of the men’s archery individual event held at the Invalides Stadium in Paris, France on the 4th (local time). Mr.

A said, “I thought that I would be able to see Korean athletes and have a higher chance of winning a gold medal in the archery event, so I bought a package that included a Category A ticket and hospitality (lounge, beverage service, etc.) for around 400 euros (about 600,000 won).”

He said, “I arrived at the stadium with excitement, but I felt a sense of unease,” and “I could hear the voices of Korean seniors, whom I had only heard rumors about in open chat rooms related to the Paris Olympics, right from the entrance of the stadium.” He

continued, “Seniors wearing uniforms similar to Team Korea uniforms were sitting in the front three or four rows of Category A seats,” and “At that time, I thought they were passionate and cool seniors.”

He continued, “The seniors started to act shamefully starting from the quarterfinals.” Mr. A said, “The Category A seats are close enough to talk to the players. Archery is a sport that requires a lot of concentration, so even children and homeless people in France would know that you have to be quiet before shooting.” He continued, “However, the seniors said ‘Nine!’ ‘Ten!’ before the players even shot or the announcer announced the score.” He continued,

“At first, foreigners found it funny, but the seniors didn’t know how to do it. In a serious situation where Lee Woo-seok had to shoot 10 points and the Italian player had to shoot 10 points to tie the score, the old man said, “If you shoot 9, we’re going up, right?” He claimed, “The Italian spectators told them to be quiet, but the old men wouldn’t stay still,” and “their cell phones and messenger notifications rang throughout the game.” Person A said, “I put down the Taegeukgi I was holding and couldn’t even cheer,” and confessed, “I really wanted to hide in a hole because I was witnessing the moment when our proud country, the Republic of Korea, was elevated to a world nuisance.” He also claimed, “I didn’t write this article just to ignorantly criticize Korean seniors. Surprisingly, these seniors are people who hold the title of sports councils under local governments affiliated with the Korea Sports Council.” 파워볼사이트
