On the 1st, Kim Yeon-kyung visited the Huanglong Sports Center Stadium in Hangzhou, China, where the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games men’s soccer quarterfinal match between Korea and China was held. Hangzhou (China) = Reporter Kim Jo-hwi ‘Volleyball Empress’ Kim Yeon-kyung (35, Heungkuk Life Insurance) visited the stadium to cheer on the Korean national soccer team.
The national team led by coach Hwang Seon-hong will face China in the men’s soccer quarterfinals of the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games held at the Huanglong Sports Center Stadium in Hangzhou, China on the 1st. Kim Yeon-kyung visited the stadium in person that day and cheered on the players from the stands.
Korea, which won the 2014 Incheon Games and the 2018 Jakarta-Palembang Games, will attempt to win its third consecutive Asian Games title in this tournament. Korea advanced to the quarterfinals by winning all three group games and all four games through to the round of 16.
The opponent in the quarterfinals is the host country, China. On this day, a one-sided cheering match was held at the stadium with a packed crowd of spectators to celebrate China’s biggest holiday, National Day.
Korea must be wary of China’s harsh fouls in today’s game. As VAR (video review system) was not introduced in this competition, concerns are rising regarding biased decisions. It remains to be seen what kind of performance China, known as ‘Shaolin Soccer’ due to its rough play, will perform in today’s game.
Kim Yeon-kyung was in charge of commentating the women’s volleyball team’s game at this tournament. He joined KBS 2TV as a commentator and took the microphone for the first time in the first match of Group C once morest Vietnam held this morning.
The Korean women’s volleyball team lost to Vietnam with a set score of 2 to 3 in the first match of the tournament. Although he won the first and second sets, he suffered a shocking reverse sweep loss, dropping the remaining sets.
The nightmare from a month ago recurred. Korea suffered a reverse sweep to Vietnam in the group stage of the Asian Championships held in Thailand last August.
Kim Yeon-kyung, who was in charge of commentating the game that day, looked determined at the national team’s upset defeat and emphasized, “Our players allowed a lot of opportunities. We need to change the atmosphere quickly.” At the same time, he said, “Because the match once morest Nepal is tomorrow, I think we need to prepare for the quarterfinals by playing through the things that did not go well today.”
The women’s volleyball team, which suffered a loss in its first match, will play the second match of the group stage once morest Nepal on the 2nd. Kim Yeon-kyung will also take the microphone in the second round.
