They criticized Noh Si-hwan so much, but Yang Min-hyeok's interview is even more serious

Noh Si-hwan didn't say something like "It's over now that he's exempt from military service." He meant that even though they lost to a Japanese social athlete (unemployed) and the performance was disappointing, they achieved the result and won the gold medal, so that's what matters.
Of course, it would have been better if the process had been good, but rather than having a good process only to be overtaken in an instant and winning silver, it's better to win gold even if the victory was ungraceful. That's what he was saying, but he ended up getting hit with all sorts of unfair criticism..
Anyway, Yang Min-hyeok is something else lol. It's not easy to get criticized that much even after winning gold..
