“Now that I have recovered from my injury and my physical condition has improved a lot, I am confident,” he said.
He said, “This is my 4th and last Asian Games performance,” and “When I close my eyes, I have been picturing the Asian Games performance for 3 to 4 months.
I am still very nervous, but I feel that much earnestness and desperation.”
Seo Hee-joo, who participated in the 2010 Guangzhou Asian Games and the 2014 Incheon Asian Games, used the 2018 Jakarta-Palembang Games as her retirement stage and worked hard.
However, Seo Hee-joo was seriously injured during the final inspection with just 5 minutes left before the game started.
He was sidelined due to a ruptured cruciate ligament in his left knee.
It was the moment when four years of challenges went in vain.
The tears did not dry in Seo Hee-joo’s eyes.
He was on the operating table twice after returning to Korea.
Seo Hee-joo did not give up.
He put off his retirement and gritted his teeth again.
And after many twists and turns, such as the competition being postponed for a year due to the spread of the novel coronavirus infection (Corona 19), the team was able to compete again at the Asian Games.
Seo Hee-ju said, “The goal this time is of course a gold medal, but what is more important is to pour out what I have prepared so far without regrets.”
Seo Hee-joo, who is loved by the public on various broadcasts for her unique personality and unique eloquence, also expressed her determination to further promote Jeonnam Wushu Association through this competition.
He added, “I feel a sense of responsibility to promote Wushu,” and added, “I will approach the competition with a heavy attitude.”
Wushu is divided into Santa, where players compete against each other, and Turo, where martial arts are performed alone.
Seo Hee-joo competes in swordsmanship and spearmanship, and the final score is determined by adding up the scores from the two events.
He will appear on stage at his final Asian Games on the 27th.
