Korean Track and Field Men’s 400m Relay Team Challenges to Win Olympic Ticket in Repechage Match

Failure to advance to the finals of the World Relay Championships… You have to finish second in your group in the consolation match on the 6th to go to Paris.

The Korean track and field men’s 400m relay team will attempt to advance to the finals of the Paris Olympics in the ‘repeats’.

In Group 1 of the men’s 400m relay preliminaries at the 2024 World Relay Championships held in Nassau, Bahamas on the 5th (Korean time), Korea ran in that order, Simon Lee (Anyang City Hall), Gukyoung Kim, Jaeseong Lee, and Seunghwan Ko (Gwangju Metropolitan City Hall) in that order, finishing 8th with 39.25 seconds.

A total of eight teams ranked 1st and 2nd in Groups 1 to 4 will compete in the finals on the 6th.

Eight teams also secured qualifications for the Paris Olympics.

Korea ranked 23rd out of 32 teams that participated in the preliminaries on this day.

However, there is still a chance.

The 24 teams that did not advance to the finals will be divided into three groups on the 6th and compete in a ‘loser match’.

A total of six teams that ranked 1st to 3rd in the repechage match, and ranked 1st to 2nd, will receive tickets to the Paris Olympics.

The Korean track and field men’s 400m relay team ran in the order of Lee Jeong-tae, Kim Kuk-young, Lee Jae-seong, and Ko Seung-hwan in the finals of the Hangzhou Asian Games held on October 3 last year, crossing the finish line in 38.74 seconds and taking third place.

38.74 seconds is a Korean record tied by Oh Kyung-soo, Cho Gyu-won, Kim Kuk-young, and Joshua in 2014.

The Korean track and field men’s 400m relay team won an Asian Games medal for the first time in 37 years since the 1986 Seoul Games, when Sung Nak-gyun, Jang Jae-geun, Kim Jong-il, and Sim Deok-seop ran in succession.

At the 2024 World Relay Championships, we will challenge ourselves to ‘obtain the right to participate in the Olympics for the first time in 36 years.’

The first and last time Korean track and field participated in the Olympics in the relay event was at the 1988 Seoul Games as the host country.
