South Korean Speed Skater Criticizes Judges Bias Towards China
|One South Korean speed skater claims that China is getting home town refereeing during the Winter Olympics:
As disappointed as he was that his team crashed out early in the mixed team relay in short track speed skating in Beijing over the weekend, South Korean short tracker Kwak Yoon-gy seemed even more upset that China won gold thanks to what he claimed was biased judging.
In a scrum with South Korean reporters Sunday, a day after China won the inaugural Olympic gold in the mixed relay on home ice, Kwak said it was difficult to describe the mixed bag of feelings he had about China’s path to the title.
“Looking at the way China won the gold medal, I felt bad that my younger teammates had to watch something like that,” Kwak, 32, said. “I thought to myself, ‘Is this really what winning a gold medal is all about?’ Things all just felt very hallow.” (……)
“I was watching that race unfold. I figured China, ROC and the U.S. would get penalized,” said Kwak, who didn’t compete for South Korea in the new relay event. “The Dutch skaters who were watching it with me said the same thing. But as the review dragged on, I figured China was going to be allowed to progress. And when the call was finally made, I found it difficult to accept it.”
Kwak, who is competing in his third and final Olympics in Beijing, said he had never seen a case where a relay team was let off the hook after missing an exchange entirely.
“If it had been any other country than China in that situation, I wondered if that team would still have been allowed to reach the final like that,” Kwak added.

No shit buddy, the world should have boycotted the Genocide Games. You didn’t think the commie Chinese wouldn’t cheat. What a fool for even going to these clown show games.
Did you hear the one about how people from all over the world went to China in the middle of a pandemic and lived in a fake “covid bubble” and then went back to their home countries and within the space of a couple of days spread a new disease and then China blamed the foreigners for spreading it amongst the other foreigners in the covid bubble and got all hurt and yelled racist when people said it came from China and when they sequenced it, there was a lot of, “Gosh, that never really happens in nature, just in a lab. But it probably came from wombats.”
Good times.
