Most of the comments were critical of society. Badminton fans said, “Why don’t you post a picture of Ahn Se-young? It’s terrible,” “The Korean Badminton Association is childish and stupid,” “It’s sad. What is an association?” ,” Who made a young player play with a lump on his knees?” “,” Let’s follow the example of the archery association,” and “Hang up a picture of the gold medal and express your position quickly,” pouring out ideas aimed at the association.
After winning the gold medal, Ahn Se-young strongly criticized the society as if she had made up her mind. In an interview conducted after the awards ceremony, he criticized the association, citing negligence in managing player injuries. At the same time, he also made a statement that it would not be difficult to join the national team again. After the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, the Korea Sports Council has also begun to investigate Ahn Se-young’s explosive comments, and the scandal is expected to continue.
Regarding this controversy, Kim Taek-gyu, president of the Korea Badminton Association, met with reporters after returning to Korea through Incheon International Airport that day and drew a line, saying, “No there was any conflict between me and the player, the association, and the player.” “I’ll look into that too. “Why did you say that?” he said.
