For me, it's the happiest moment in this Olympics!
The PyeongChang Olympics has been somehow lackluster in Japan, but now, the whole country is talking about her wining the gold medal.
Lee Sang-hwa (South Korea) who won the silver medal was crying with disappointment. She is a world-record holder and won the gold medal both at the Sochi and at the Vancouver Olympics. The strongest sprinter!
She must have aimed 3rd straight wining, or rather she must have thought that she had to win, especially because it's the Olympics in her own country. It can be easily imagined that she was under strong pressure.
It was impressive that Nao hugged Sang-hwa and two of them were talking for quite a long time just after the competition.

Hearing some episodes of them, I realized that they have been good rivals and also, very good friends.
