[Gary Zhang/Comprehensive Report]
In the weightlifting event of the Asian Games in Hangzhou, North Korea’s “mysterious power” completely overwhelmed other countries, sweeping away 6 golds, 5 silvers and 2 bronzes for a total of 13 medals, even beating the landlord China’s 9 medals. However, this mysterious power has repeatedly refused to test for drugs. He did not participate in this summer’s World Weightlifting Championships and will not be able to participate in next year’s Paris Olympics. This also makes other countries breathe a sigh of relief. Guo Meuchun is expected to challenge the consecutive champions and will lose a powerful opponent.

Before this Asian Games, North Korea had not participated in international competitions for many years. Most of the players participating in this competition were famous faces. Unexpectedly, they became a blockbuster and even broke many world records. Even our country’s Guo Meichun said bluntly, “It’s great.” Horrible”. In this Asian Games weightlifting event, North Korea won a total of 6 gold medals, including men’s 81kg, women’s 49kg, women’s 55kg, women’s 59kg, women’s 64kg, and women’s 76kg.
The craziest among them is undoubtedly Kim Il Kyung in the 59kg category. She lifted 111kg in the snatch, setting a world record, an Asian record, an Asian Games record, a world youth record and an Asian youth record in this event; the three times in the clean and jerk were 127 Kilogram, 132 kilogram and 135 kilogram were all successful and once again broke the world youth record, Asian youth record and Asian Games record. In the end, with a total score of 246 kilograms, he broke three more records including the World Youth Record, Asian Youth Record, and Asian Games, breaking 11 records in total.

In addition, North Korea won silver medals in the men’s 61kg, men’s 67kg, men’s 96kg, women’s 55kg, and women’s 76kg categories; and two bronze medals in the men’s 61kg and 73kg categories. In this year’s Asian Games weightlifting, North Korea swept 6 golds, 5 silvers and 2 bronzes for a total of 13 medals, even surpassing the host China’s 9 medals of 5 golds, 3 silvers and 1 bronze, becoming the biggest winner in weightlifting.
However, North Korea’s mysterious power has refused to take drug tests many times in the past and did not participate in the just-concluded World Weightlifting Championships. Therefore, it will not be able to participate in next year’s Paris Olympics. This is equivalent to letting all countries breathe a sigh of relief. China has vowed to regain its face. At the same time, Guo Meuchun, who was crushed by North Korea in this year’s Asian Games, won China’s only weightlifting medal this year. However, since North Korea cannot participate in the Paris Olympics, it is expected to challenge for consecutive Olympic gold medals.
