Taekwondo's international base is growing day by day thanks to the Korean Wave, but as the skill gap between countries has leveled off, the international competitiveness of the Taekwondo national team has been assessed to have declined.

This was especially true for the Taekwondo women’s national team.

The women's national team, which had won medals in every event it participated in in the past, has not been able to achieve any significant results in international competitions for some time.

It wasn't just the world stage.

Korean women's Taekwondo was shaken even in Asia.

[Jeong Eul-jin](https://www.buymeacoffee.com/totosafeguide/yilaguwago), head coach of the Taekwondo team, said, “Athletes from Europe, North America, and even Asia have improved their skills significantly,” adding, “The reality is that it is difficult to expect many gold medals in the Asian Games.”

In fact, the women's Taekwondo team only won one gold medal (Lee Da-bin, women's over-67kg) out of five gold medals at the 2018 Jakarta-Palembang Asian Games.

The outlook for the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games was also not bright.

Korea set a goal of winning about three gold medals in sparring before the opening of the competition, and expected all of them to come from the men's national team and mixed team competition.

However, on the 26th, the second day of sparring, Korea restored its pride as a country when Park Hye-jin (Goyang City Hall) won the women's 53kg class.

Although Park Hye-jin was not considered a candidate for the championship, she showed incredible concentration and won the gold medal.

In the final held at the [Lin'an Sports and Culture Exhibition Center](https://livepositively.com/gold-medals-in-shooting-taekwondo-and-judo/) in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, China, he defeated Taiwan's Lin Weijun, who is 13cm taller than him (167cm), with a round score of 2-1.

As a result, Korea came close to its goal by winning two gold medals in Poomsae and two gold medals in Gyeorugi by the 26th.

In Korea, on the 24th, the first day of the Taekwondo competition, the men's and women's poomsae national teams Kang Wan-jin (Hongcheon-gun Office) and Cha Ye-eun (Kyung Hee University) won the championship, and on the 25th, ace Jang Jun (Korea Gas Corporation) won the gold medal.

Korea is poised to surpass its performance at the 2018 Jakarta-Palembang Asian Games (2 Poomsae, 3 Gyeorugi).

On the 27th, Jin Ho-jun (Suwon City Hall) in the men's 68 kg class, Park Woo-hyuk (Samsung S-One) in the men's 80 kg class, and Kim Jan-di (Samsung S-One) in the women's 67 kg class will compete.

[Jin Ho-jun](https://oakmerehomeadvisors.mn.co/members/19596170) is a promising star for Korean Taekwondo, winning a silver medal in his first appearance at the World Championships held last May, and Park Woo-hyuk is last year's World Championships champion.

Everyone is a gold medal candidate.
