Lim Ae-ji (25, Hwasun County Office) won a valuable bronze medal.
Lim Ae-ji lost to Hatice Akbashi (28-29 27-30 29-28-28 27-30 29-28) in the women's 54kg boxing semifinals at the 2024 Paris Olympics at the North Paris Arena in Paris, France on the 4th (Korea time). Lim Ae-ji, who became the first Korean female boxer to reach the semifinals and become the first Olympic medalist, unfortunately failed to go to the finals. However, he won a valuable bronze medal. Lim Ae-ji's bronze medal is the first Olympic medal in Korean boxing in 12 years since Han Soon-cheol (a silver medal in men's 60kg class) at the 2012 London Games.
Imaeji advanced to the semi-finals with a 3-2 (30-27 30-27 28-29 29-28-29 28-29) decision over Yeni Marcella Arias Castaneda of Colombia in the previous match. Lim Ae-ji gave no room to penetrate her opponent, who was active with her brilliant footwork, and earned points through intelligent play. In the midst of a slugfest, Lim Ae-ji showed her concentration and smiled at the end.

The semi-final opponent is Akbashi. He is the winner of the 2022 International Boxing Association (IBA) Istanbul World Championship and is the world champion. It was a tough opponent. Lim Ae-ji kept her distance and played using her long arms from a distance. The opponent was also in this style, and there was no spark. Akbashi, who is tall at 1m72, goes outboxing. Lim Ae-ji fought back by penetrating into her opponent's arms. The results of the first round were 2-3 and Lim Ae-ji was a little behind.
In the second round, Akbashi lowered the guard and waited for Lim Ae-ji to come in. Lim Ae-ji fought well, but the score was pushed to 1-4. Lim Ae-ji continued her offensive in the third round to come from behind, but failed to make a clear shot. Despite third-round propaganda, Im Ae-ji ultimately failed to overturn the decision. Unfortunately, he failed to go to the finals, but Lim Ae-ji has already made new Korean boxing history with a bronze medal.
