The Kookmin University (President Jeong Seung Rryul) judo team won gold medals in both the team and individual events at the 2024 Summer National University Judo Federation and National University Club Judo Competition, held from July 1 (Monday) to 3 (Wednesday) at the Hanbadang Gymnasium in Daejeon.
The tournament, co-hosted by the Daejeon Sports Council and the Korea University Judo Federation and organized by the Korea University Judo Federation and the Daejeon Judo Association, featured more than 400 athletes from 31 teams from 22 universities, and more than 200 athletes from 25 teams from 18 university clubs across the country.
Kookmin University's judo team won a total of three gold medals in the men's team competition (seven competitors per weight class) and one silver medal in the men's individual competition (Lim Jin-hyun in 60k and Han Sung-woo in 90k).
On Wednesday, July 24, Kim Ji Yong, Chairman of Kookmin Gakuen, the school's board of trustees, presented the judoka with a watch and a golden baton symbolizing Kookmin University to encourage them for their outstanding performance. The ceremony was attended by President Kim Ji Yong, President Jeong Seung Ryeul, and Kim Jung Haeng, president of the Korea Judo Federation, as well as Lee Cheon Woo, president of the Seoul Judo Association, and Lee Kyu Won, head coach of the judo team (professor of sports education).
KMU's judo team, which currently has 12 members, has continued to make a name for itself with outstanding performances every year, including this one, a gold medal in the 90K individual event (Han Sung Woo) at the Mongyang Cup in Yangpyeong in June, and a gold medal in the women's team event at the Yanggu Peace Cup in 2023.
“We are pleased and proud to have won gold medals in both the team and individual events at this tournament,” said Professor Lee Kyu Won of the Department of Sports Education, who coaches KMU's judo team. “Not only the men, but also the women have been performing well, and we look forward to supporting the team as they continue to build on their reputation.”
