I try not to push myself too hard, but I also need to perform and earn the results.
— Im Dong-Hyun
I used to play football at school, and I enjoyed really physical sports, but I now try to avoid any sports that might build up different muscles. That might have a negative impact on my archery.
If I couldn't see the colors, now that would be a problem.
I've had some surgery and shoulder problems.
Archery requires very sensitive muscles.
When I look down the range at the target all I can do is try to distinguish between the different colors.
I had a strong desire to become an archer from the very first time I tried it. I forgot my other ambitions. I just wanted to compete in the Olympics.
Archery is not a sport for everyone. The equipment costs a lot, and it is not easy for everyone to find a place to play. It is perhaps similar to golf, but of course there are more golf courses than archery fields.
For me, seeing the target and not seeing the target doesn't make any difference.
