리우 2016: 한국남자양궁단체 첫 금 메달
Hello I'm Kwon Jang-ho, here to bring you the results, highlights and more from the 2016 Olympics.
The second day of competition has begun in Rio, with fourteen gold medals up for grabs on Sunday.
But let's take a look back at day one, when Team Korea picked up their first medals... including a commanding win in the men's team archery.
It was a faultless performance, with Korea's three young archers Kim Woo-jin, Ku Bon-chan and Lee Seung-yun winning all three of their matches six-nil.
The highlight was in the final against the U.S. where they scored a perfect 60 out of 60 in their first set to put them on the path to gold.
"I knew if I trusted myself, and trusted my teammates behind me, we would get a good result. I think it was that belief that got us the gold medal."
The win carries on Korea's strong tradition of success in archery, tallying its fifth gold medal in the men's team event, and its fourth in the last five Olympics.
But before that, Korea's first medal of this year's Olympic Games came from an expected source -- the women's 48-kilo Judo competition.
Jeong Bo-kyung, ranked eighth in the world, was not considered a medal contender, but in the quarter-finals she surprised everyone with a victory over world number-one Munkhbat Urantsetseg of Mongolia.
She put on another impressive display to beat Dayaris Mestre Alvarez of Cuba by an ippon, but she fell short in the final, losing to Paula Pareto of Argentina... and taking silver.
