Kim Ye-ji (31, Imsil County Office), a silver medalist who played an active role at the 2024 Paris Olympics, is attracting global attention.
Kim Ye-ji won a silver medal in the women’s 10m women’s individual shooting air pistol event at the Chatoru Shooting Center in Paris on the 28th (local time).
Earlier in May, he shot 42 points in the 25m pistol event of the International Shooting Federation (ISSF) Shooting World Cup in Baku, Azerbaijan, setting a new world record and winning the gold medal, but now X is drawing attention as the video spread rapidly at the time. 스포츠토토
In the video, Kim Ye-ji shot her last shot while wearing a black hat behind her, and after checking the target site with a cold expression, she checked the pistol lock.
Soon after, he looked at the target site once more, sighed and turned back. Even though he set a new world record, he never smiled.
Users of X around the world cheered at the appearance of “The Female Warrior.” The video that received the most attention exceeded 23 million views as of 8 a.m. on Sunday.
The video has been re-shared more than 6,500 times, with more than 1,300 comments in various languages, including English and Spanish.
Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla and the owner of X, joined in and praised Kim Ye-ji.
Musk wrote, “It would be cool if an action movie also had a shooting world champion. We need to cast Kim Ye-ji in an action movie. No acting is necessary.”
Meanwhile, Kim Ye-ji will compete in her main event, the 25m gunpowder pistol, on August 2nd and try to win a medal.
