S. Korean climbing star training for Tokyo Olympics after two gold medals at Sport Climbing World Cup
Despite returning from international competitions last week,… South Korean climber Kim Ja-in, is already busy training with a new goal in mind as sport climbing will make its Olympic debut at Tokyo 2020. In fact, the sport has already made its debut at the Asian stage. She has picked up a bronze medal in the Women's Sport Climbing Combined event at the 2018 Asian Games, which took place in Indonesia back in August. And reminiscing about that win,… she speaks frankly about the burden of increased public interest in her sport. (KOREAN) "The interest that I received from the public was different from the past as the sport was debuting at a major sporting event. And adding to that, the disciplines at the Asian Games were different from what I have been doing for so long." Kim is the world number three at lead climbing, but for the combined event at the Asian Games she had to also compete in bouldering and speed climbing as well as lead climbing. And she doesn't have time to take a break from training as the Olympic event will also combine the three sport climbing disciplines. Practicing for more than 4 hours every day in the gym,… she tries to perfect her skills in all three climbing disciplines. Her goal for now is to win a place at the Olympics. (KOREAN) "The Tokyo Olympics seemed so far away, but actually it is now just around the corner. As it is getting closer, my first goal is to be on the 20 member roster." With the spotlight continuing to shine on her career in the sport, Kim heads to Guangzhou for the China Open next week to pump up her confidence ahead of her push to reach her ultimate goal of winning an Olympic medal.

지난주 국제대회에서 복귀했음에도 불구하고 한국의 클라이밍 선수 김자인은 스포츠 클라이밍이 2020년 도쿄 올림픽에 처음 정식 종목으로 채택되었기 때문에 이미 새로운 목표를 염두에 두고 훈련하느라 분주합니다. 사실, 이 스포츠는 이미 아시아 무대에서 처음으로 선보였습니다.
