Ahn "China and Taiwan accompany dedicated trainers. Please do not misinterpret it as retirement"
Korea, 4 people accompany. No personal trainers Association "Called a doctor to France to treat Ahn"

A look at the final match of Ahn Se-young, who won the gold medal in the women's singles at the Paris Olympics on the 5th. After winning that day, Ahn Se-young made a bombshell statement expressing her dissatisfaction with the national team and the Korea Badminton Association.

The shocking remarks made by Ahn Se-young (22), who immediately after winning Korea’s first Olympic badminton singles gold medal in 28 years on the 5th, saying, “It seems like it will be difficult for me to continue working with the national team in the future,” are causing a stir.

About 7 hours and 30 minutes after her remarks, Ahn Se-young posted on her Instagram at around 3 AM on the 6th (Korean time), “I didn’t want to talk like I was going to war with someone, but I wanted to talk about protecting and managing the players, and communication rather than power,” and “Please don’t misinterpret it as retirement.” However, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism announced that it would investigate the circumstances that led Ahn Se-young to make such remarks, and the repercussions are continuing. The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism said, “We will determine the exact facts as soon as the Olympics are over.” The political world is also in a mood to not let this go.

The day before, Ahn Se-young, right after winning the gold medal, expressed her intention to leave the national team in front of Korean reporters, saying, “My injury was more serious than I thought and I could not completely recover, but I was very disappointed because the national team was too complacent.” Her argument was that the national team and the association did not manage her injury properly.

Ahn Se-young suffered a partial rupture of her knee ligament during the Hangzhou Asian Games finals last October. After returning to Korea, she was diagnosed that she would be able to return to the court after 2-6 weeks of rehabilitation. However, she did not get better easily. She visited another hospital in December of the same year, and this time she was told, “It will not get better in a short period of time, and she will have to manage the pain and endure it until the Olympics.” According to

Dong-A Ilbo’s comprehensive coverage, this is when the differences of opinion and conflict between Ahn Se-young and the association regarding injury management began. The association’s position is that “We said we would do our own thing, but it seems that it did not reach the level that Ahn Se-young expected.” The association explained that the Jincheon Athletes’ Village in Chungcheongbuk-do Province has facilities and programs for athletes’ injury rehabilitation, but it was difficult to support treatment at an external medical institution. They also said that they had no choice but to consider the issue of fairness with other athletes. Ahn Se

-young reportedly suffered an ankle injury while training at a pre-training camp organized by the Korea Sports Council on the 12th of last month after leaving for France. Ahn Se-young wanted a specific Korean medicine doctor to come and treat her, and since the Olympics were just around the corner, the association made an exception for the doctor to come to France and treat her, supporting her airfare and accommodation costs. The association even supported the doctor’s allowance.

In an interview with a media outlet after the Paris Olympics finals, Ahn Se-young said, “Dai Tzu-ying (Taiwan) brought two trainers, and Chen Yu-fei (China) also brought two trainers this time.” This seems to be an expression of her dissatisfaction with not having a dedicated trainer for this Olympics. The badminton team had four trainers accompany them to Paris for this Olympics. Of these, two who were issued AD cards that allowed them to enter the stadium remained in Paris until the end of the competition schedule. The two without AD cards stayed with the players only during the pre-game training camp and then returned to Korea. None of the four had a trainer dedicated to a specific player. Han Su-jeong, the trainer (conditioning manager) who was in charge of Ahn Se-young at the Jincheon Athletes’ Village, did not go to Paris. An association official said, “Last year, a trainer who was publicly hired for a one-year contract ended at the end of June. We proposed to extend the contract until the end of the Paris Olympics, but he said he would quit.” According to an official who was with Ahn Se-young the day before she left for Paris, Ahn was very dissatisfied that trainer Han could not go with her to Paris. It is known that Ahn Se-young spent a lot of time with trainer Han and relied on her while training at the Jincheon Athletes’ Village. Earlier this year, when Ahn was struggling with an injury, she said, “I don’t know if I can hold out until the Olympics, but I’m holding out day by day with trainer Han.” None of the archery, shooting, and fencing athletes who won gold medals at this Olympics had a dedicated trainer to manage their conditioning.

On the 5th, Ahn Se-young told reporters, “It seems like it will be difficult to go with the national team in the future,” and also said, “If I go to the national team and I can’t compete in the Olympics, isn’t that a bit mean to the athlete?” In order to compete in international competitions including the Olympics, one must first be selected as a national representative. National representatives are recommended by each sports organization to the Korea Sports Council, and the council must approve them. The structure is such that if one is not selected as a national representative, one cannot compete in the Olympics. However, according to the Badminton Association’s regulations, if a female athlete is 27 years old or older and a male athlete is 28 years old or older, one can compete in international competitions as an individual. Even in this case, Ahn Se-young, who is 22 years old this year, is not included. In particular, competing in the Olympics requires separate approval from the Korea Sports Council, separate from the association’s recommendation.
