[National Sports Festival] Woo Sang-hyuk, Who Soared Hard Again this Year, “Party Tonight with Chicken!”
Ends the 2023 season with an easy win at the National Sports Festival
“I’m crying because I haven’t been able to eat chicken this year.
Tonight’s ‘party tonight’ by eating it!”
Woo Sang-hyuk felt relieved after finishing the 2023 season with the 104th National Sports Festival held at Mokpo Stadium in Jeollanam-do on the 18th.
Woo Sang-hyuk has had a breathless year.
He was unable to participate in indoor competitions at the beginning of the season due to sinusitis surgery, and heel pain also bothered him, but he continued to set valuable records.
He consistently set records in the 2m30s at international competitions, and became the first Korean athlete to advance to the Diamond League Finals and even win the championship.

At the 2023 Hangzhou Asian Games, which ended this month, he won the silver medal for the second time in a row after a close battle with his 'rival and friend' Mutaz Essa Barsim (Qatar).
On this day, in the finals of the National Sports Festival, he won by exceeding 2m32.
Although he failed in the challenge of 2m37, he finished the season in good spirits with a record in the 2m30s.
Woo Sang-hyuk, who met with reporters after the finals, said, "I played nearly 20 games this season and recorded over 2m30 in more than half of them.
It's important to gain practice experience, and I think I accumulated that very well the year before the Paris Olympics.
It was a good year.
“It was,” he said.
Woo Sang-hyuk confessed that the most disappointing part of this season was not being able to pick up the pace at the beginning of the season due to the aftermath of sinusitis surgery.
When a season ends with the National Sports Festival, there are three months of weight training and training to strengthen body balance and core muscles, but it is said that they have not been able to do this at all ahead of the 2023 season.
Woo Sang-hyuk said, "I couldn't breathe at all due to sinusitis," and added, "This time, I will get in shape and aim well for the World Indoor Championships and even the Paris Olympics."
When asked what he will do during his break before preparing for the new season, Woo Sang-hyuk smiled.
Woo Sang-hyuk said, "It's such a happy question.
I'm so hungry right now.
I've been on a strict diet since October of last year.
As soon as I get home, I'm going to eat as much as I want."
He continued, "It's 'Party Tonight'.
I want to eat a lot of meat.
I like chicken, but I don't think I've eaten it five times this year. I'm suddenly in tears.
Eating is my pleasure.

But I had no choice because I had to prepare for the Paris Olympics." I laughed.
After the sweet rest, we will prepare for the 2024 Paris Olympics, which are already 9 months away.
When Woo Sang-hyuk won the Diamond League Final, he passed the Paris Olympic standard record (2m 33) and virtually secured a spot in the finals.
The Paris Olympics men's high jump final will be held on August 10th at 7:05 PM local time and on August 11th at 3:05 AM Korean time.
Coach Do-gyun Kim is creating a strategy and creating a training plan that will allow Sang-hyuk Woo to reach his peak on August 11, 2024.
Woo Sang-hyuk, who is still not sure what the first competition he will participate in next year because Coach Kim hasn't told him, showed strong trust, saying, "I always completely believe what Coach says."
