Article: There's a player who won a gold medal just 20 days before enlistment

(Soft tennis is not a category in the Olympics, so winning a gold medal at the Asian Games is the only chance for military service exemption. It's also not included in Korea Armed Forces Athletic Corps, which means that the players have to service in the regular unit. Therefore, enlistment means retirement for minor sports players. Kim Jin Woong already had a draft notice to enlist on the 18th, but he won a gold medal and is exempt. When the match was over, he collapsed on the court from the leg pain.)
1. [+2155, -38] Only the people like him should be exempt from the military service.
2. [+1950, -18] Seeing the tapes on his legs, I can tell how hard he played ㅠㅠ Good work! ^^
3. [+1704, -18] Leg taping... I've injured my knees and ankles so I know how painful every step is, it's so touching... Congrats on winning a gold medal!
4. [+43, -2] Can people not judge his face? You only have to congratulate on his gold medal.
5. [+41, -1] Hardwork doesn't betray you. Congratulations ^^
6. [+20, -1] Hul, I thought he was in his 50's when I saw the picture. He's 28?
