Wrong Decisions at London 2012

By Seo Yo Han

The 2012 London Olympic has begun. There are many kind of sports in Olympics. Players and officials have to play the games fair. But already many judges have wrong decisions towards Korean players. Typically Shin Lam, a Korean fencing player, is a victim of wrong decision.  

Ah-Ram played fencing with Heideman who was German player, Shin Lam was close to the winner before '1 second'. If she endured just '1 second' She would be a winner at that game. But the judge’s wrong decision had begun and Ah-Ram's nightmare started too.

The '1 second' was already passed, but the judges did not end the game so Heideman had more of an attacking chance. Finally she got 1 point and the game was ended. Shin Lam was frustrated. She sank and cried. She prepared this Olympic for 4 years. But just one judges wrong decision broke her efforts.

Ah-Ram's coach complained about this wrong decision, so they looked video to decipher what went wrong. They confirmed that the '1 second' already passed but they cannot acknowledged the decision that Heideman won the game.

The world people are upset his happened. And this happen was recorded that the 5 Olympics’ best wrong decision. Many press made articles about this happening and they criticized the IOC(International Olympic Committee).

Many sportsmen from Korea the other countries players had been disqualified during games. Just one wrong decision, one person will have to sweat and prepare for next Olympic for 4 years. Judgments have to taken more carefully.
