Lee Da-bin lost to Uzbekistan's Svetlana Osipova with a round score of 0-2 (3-35-9) in the women's 67kg-overweight semifinals at the 2024 Paris Olympics at Grand Palais in Paris, France on the 11th (Korea time). Lee Da-bin, who won a silver medal at the previous Tokyo Games, did her best to aim for the gold medal in this tournament, but unfortunately failed to reach the final. Her dream of becoming a career Grand Slam player also flew away. Lee Da-bin won the gold medal at the 2014 Incheon Asian Games (62kg class) and the 2018 Jakarta-Palembang Games (67kg excess class) when he was a high school student. He also topped the 73kg class at the 2019 Manchester World Championship and the 2016 Manila Asian Championship. He tried to win the Olympic gold medal, the final puzzle of the Grand Slam, but it was unfortunately canceled.
In the competition rankings compiled by the World Taekwondo Federation (WT) until June, just before the Olympics, Lee Da-bin was fourth and Osipova was ninth. Do you think it's going to be a loser?譏嗤? The game is twisted. It was 24 seconds before the end of the first roundBin succeeded in attacking his head for the first time, and he seemed to win the round. But within 10 seconds, Osipova hit him on the head and allowed him to tie the game. The tie-breaking round determines the winner in the order of players with more points won by rotation, players with more points in the order of head-body-fist-deductible points, and players with more effective hitting of electronic pitches. Based on this standard, Lee Da-bin lost the first round.
Lee Da-bin, who allowed a head attack 13 seconds into the second round, failed to make a shot other than the scene where he exchanged body attacks with his opponent 45 seconds before the end of the game. Lee Da-bin, who was in a hurry, was deducted once 17 seconds before the end, and nine seconds later, he was beaten on the head again, making the defeat worse. In the end, they lost 5-9 and failed to advance to the finals.
Lee Da-bin succeeded in avenging Zhou Zedong, who lost in the final of the Hangzhou Asian Games, in the quarterfinals earlier, but failed to cross the important semifinal gateway.
Lee Da-bin was the last Korean taekwondo athlete to compete in the Paris Olympics. Korean Taekwondo, which succeeded in exceeding its goal by winning gold medals in the men's 58kg class on the 7th and Kim Yu-jin (Ulsan Sports Council) in the women's 57kg class on the 8th, dreamed of a succession with Lee Da-bin's gold medal, but the third gold medal was canceled.
