Yesterday and the day before yesterday, Taiwan's Taekwondo representative Sun Yui Chi(宋玉麒), he competed with a person from Turkey for bronze metal. Basically Taekwondo looks like boxing. There will be a competition in the middle, and then when the game starts, there will be a loud sound. Taekwondo is divided in different rounds, but one round has only for a few second, so the players will always try to find the right time and then kick, and it has to fast. first round no one gets any point, because they are kind of testing each other, to show their weak side, but it doesn't really work much. So on the second round, both of them start to kicking each other, then our team got 2 points, and the Turkey team got 1 point, we are 1 point ahead. On the third round, both of them take turns to kick others, and the Turkey team got earned 2 points, but we only earned 1 point. So now both teams are even. But Sun Yui Chi didn't just give up, at the moment of only few seconds left, he got 1 points and won the bronze medal for Taiwan. At the moment that every Taiwan people is cheering, Sun Yui Chi kneel down to his father(which is also his coach) to thanks for everything. That was a really touching moment. We are proud of Sun Yui Chi, and he is our hero.
