The result was 'World Record', but Kim Ye-ji did not laugh when she opened her left blindfold 'Tik' with her gun down, separated the magazine, and checked the score. After organizing the gun without changing his expression, he sighed deeply and turned around without regret. It reminded me of the cold back of the killer who completed his assassination mission.
The sensitivity of people around the world was properly shot at by this appearance. The user who uploaded the video is 'the most protagonist-like image I've ever seen in my life. She didn't even respond to the world record. Because she is so indifferent and mysterious,' he wrote. It was a comment that drew consensus from everyone. The number of video views has begun to soar.
Then Tesla (CEO) and X owner Elon Musk reacted. "It would be cool if there was a shooting world champion in the action movie," he said directly in the video. You have to cast Kim Ye-ji in an action movie. There is no need for smoke,' he said in an exclamation.

What made the world's netizens even more enthusiastic is the unexpected charm that contrasts with the cold and sharp expression like an assassin. In particular, the cute 「Elephant Doll」 worn during the Olympic Games caught the eye.

It's like a scene from a science fiction movie."
