Jang Sung-kyu appeared with a photo of Oh Sang-wook cheering after winning the gold medal "I'm thrilled for Korea's first gold medal! "I'm crying. Congratulations, Oh Sang-wook."
Kim Joon-ho, a former fencing team member who turned from the original 'Appeals' member to a commentator and explained Oh Sang-wook's game, said "This scene is so amazing right now.
