Fabian, who suffered from malicious comments, said, “I am alive” after winning gold medal in Korean archery
French broadcaster Fabien congratulated the Korean men’s archery team on their team gold medal.
The men’s team, consisting of Kim Woo-jin (Cheongju City Hall), Kim Je-deok (Yecheon County Office), and Lee Woo-seok (Kolon), won the gold medal by defeating France 5-1 in the final of the men’s team archery event at the 2024 Paris Olympics held in Les Invalides, Paris, France on the 30th (Korean time).
On that day, Fabien posted a photo on Instagram of himself waving the Taegeukgi and cheering at the final of the men’s team archery event.
He posted a sweaty emoji with the caption, “South Korea’s archery men’s team gold medal!! France also got a silver medal (wow, we survived).” French broadcaster Robin also added a tearful laughing emoji, saying, “We survived.”
Earlier, when the organizers made a series of mistakes, such as the in-house announcer introducing “South Korea” as “North Korea” at the opening ceremony of the 2024 Paris Olympics, Fabien was targeted with malicious comments by some netizens because he is French.
On the 28th, Fabien posted a video titled “Olympic D1! Swimming medal after 12 years! Feat. comment terrorism” on his YouTube channel.
In the video, Fabien said, “During the opening ceremony, when the South Korean team entered, the Olympic organizing committee introduced South Korea as North Korea, which was absurd. Since the Olympics were held in our country, (as a French person who loves South Korea) I am so angry, disappointed, and upset about this situation.” He continued, “When I got home, I was being terrorized on Instagram, email, and in the comments. In fact, in some ways, it’s something familiar to me,” he said. “I was also subjected to comment terrorism during the Qatar Asian Cup when players Son Heung-min and Lee Kang-in were involved, and this time, too, I’m getting cursed out because the Olympics are being held in my country.” 파워볼사이트
