'World No. 18' Yoon Hyun-ji lost a round of 16 in the women's 78kg class at the 2024 Paris Olympics held at the Chandmars Stadium in Paris, France on the 1st (Korea time) after a neck-and-neck race with world No. 5 Ma Chun Zhao (China). Yoon Hyun-ji was the first to catch the victory. At 1:11 of the start of the game, he won the half by walking on a thigh. It was Yoon Hyun-ji's victory when the regular time (4 minutes) ended, but Ma Jeon-jiao took a round of the match to drop to Moro with 1:21 left. Ma Jeon-jiao put his hand over Yoon Hyun-ji's shoulder and held her back, and Yoon Hyun-ji, who lost her balance, collapsed backward.
Yoon Hyun-ji previously had a foul on England's Emma Reid in the round of 32, but finished her journey in the round of 16.
Yoon Hyun-ji, captain of the women's judo team, announced her intention to retire from the national team after the Olympics. Yoon Hyun-ji, who suffered from bad luck in the international competition, won a bronze medal at the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games held in September last year. I dreamed of a beauty in the last Olympics, but my dream of a medal didn't come true.
