Not just me, but everyone can do well. “Park Woo-hyuk said the victory helped him overcome the disappointment of losing to host China in the final of the mixed team event on Aug. 25.However, he also expressed regret that he was the only one of his teammates to escape the pain of defeat .Park teamed up with Kim Jandi (Samsung S One), Seo Gun-woo (Korea Gymnastics University) and Lee Da-bin (Seoul Metropolitan Government) in the mixed team event, which was introduced for the first time at the Asian Games. However, they had to settle for silver after losing 77-84 to the Chinese team (Chu Yiyang, Song Zhaoxiang, Song Zhe, Zhou Zhiqi) with gold on the line.”It’s a shame that I’m the only one who got to take it out,” Park said, “because (Kim) Jong-soo and (Seo) Geon-woo are also members of our team.” “Jong-soo lost in the quarterfinals today…so I’m sorry that I won by myself,” he added. Kim Jandi, who competed alongside Park Woo-hyuk in the women’s 67-kilogram quarterfinals, had an early exit after losing to Vietnam’s Thi Kiem Park with a round score of 0-2 (2-7 4-9). “I still haven’t qualified for the Paris Olympics next year.
