[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Ji-eun] President Moon Jae-in sent a congratulatory message on Ansan's triple crown victory in archery at the Tokyo Olympics, saying, "A new history has been made. I am proud of Ansan, who overcame everything until the end."

On the 30th, President Moon stated this through social networking service (SNS), saying, "It was a nail-biting match until the very end."

President Moon said, "Ansan not only showed outstanding skills but also gave the public the greatest inspiration with steel-like mental strength and concentration," adding, "Her wish to become 'a player whom even those who don't know sports recognize by name' has come true."

President Moon emphasized, "Behind one person's great achievement lies repetitive training and intense loneliness. Sometimes, one must also fight against excessive expectations and discrimination. We often only see the results, but each step of the process is never easy. If we care about each other's lives, we can never diminish the value of sweat and effort."

President Moon said, "I am proud and impressed by Ansan, who overcame everything until the end," and added, "I hope the public will send even more applause and encouragement."
