In fact, Park Hye-jin is a member of the ‘home country’ Korean national team,
but she was not considered a strong candidate for the championship before the competition.
This is because she has not yet won a major international competition.
Last November, she qualified for the 2022 World Taekwondo Championships held by the World Taekwondo Federation (WT),
but she withdrew in the quarterfinals.

He also packed in the round of 16 at the 2019 tournament held in Manchester, England.
The Hangzhou Asian Games were the first major international competition where Park Hye-jin had the honor of standing on top of the podium.
Park Hye-jin, who made her name known through this competition,
said, “Rather than feeling good about people knowing my name, I just feel more satisfied.”
He added, “I want to be remembered as a player who always worked consistently and sincerely rather than as a player who achieved good results.”
Park Hye-jin’s next goal is to play for the national team once again.
She said, “There is an Asian Championship next year.
Now, to get a ticket to the national team,
I have to win the selection competition.
I want to become a member of the national team once again.”
