# The Future of Korean Sports Revealed

***The younger brothers shined as brightly as their older brothers at the National Sports Festival... The future of Korean sports revealed***

*Lee Jae-sung, Joel Jin, swimming, Heo Yeon-kyung, Choi Kang-in, etc.*

*At the 104th Jeonnam National Sports Festival, promising players who performed more impressively than their older brothers raised expectations for the future of Korean sports.*

*In the basic sport of track and field, only one Korean record was set, perhaps because this competition was held in colder-than-expected weather.*

*While the general-level players, who should be at the forefront of setting new records, faltered somewhat, there were several noteworthy results in the college and high school divisions.*

*Lee Jae-seong (Korea National Sport University), a promising sprinter who won three gold medals in the men's college division, recorded better records than his seniors in the general division in two of the events.* [***온라인카지노사이트***](https://www.casinositeking.com)
