(Beijing = Yonhap News) Correspondent Han Jong-gu = Ahn Hyun-soo (Russian name: Victor Ahn), who served as a technical coach for the Chinese short track team, apologized to the Chinese for labeling Taiwan as the country on the website of a cosmetics company run by his wife. .
On the 14th, Ahn Hyun-soo posted on Weibo, a Chinese social media site, “There was an error in the basic settings due to my family’s negligence in managing the Internet site.”
It is an apology for listing Taiwan together with other countries in the category of selecting nationality when registering as a foreign member on the website of a cosmetics company run by his wife Unari.
“I’ve hurt you all, and I’m really sorry,” he said. “I had a very enjoyable time as a coach in China, and I am forever grateful for the support of many short track fans and netizens.”
“I and my family consistently support the ‘one China’ principle,” he wrote.
The ‘one China’ principle means that China, Taiwan, and Hong Kong are indivisible and that the People’s Republic of China is the only legitimate government.
Short track legend Ahn Hyun-soo from Korea gave up his Korean citizenship and acquired Russian citizenship after his team was disbanded in 2011 and had difficulties in training in Korea.
He won three gold medals as a Russian athlete at the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympics, and the 2018 Pyeongchang Winter Olympics, which was set as his retirement stage, was not held due to his involvement in a Russian doping scandal.
Retired Hyun-soo Ahn received a love call from China and joined the Chinese national team led by coach Seon-tae Kim in 2020.
China, which recruited a Korean leader, won gold medals in the 2,000m mixed relay and the men’s 1,000m at the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics amid controversy over bias.
It is said that he returned to Korea after his contract with China expired last month.
