The 2026 Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games, opening on the 19th, are now just 5 days away.
At the 1994 Hiroshima Asian Games, Hwang Young-jo won the gold medal in the marathon with a time of 2 hours, 11 minutes, and 13 seconds.
Crossing the finish line at Peace Park, the site of the atomic bombing, he recreated the emotion that earned him the title of the "Hero of Montjuic" with his gold medal at the Barcelona Olympics two years prior, bringing great joy to the entire nation.
