“First of all, it’s so amazing.
We have a gold medal in our house."

Shin Yu-bin was paired with Jeon Ji-hee on the 2nd for the 2022 Hangzhou.
In the Asian Games table tennis women's doubles final, she defeated North Korea's Cha Soo-young and Park Soo-kyung 4-1 to win the gold medal.
Shin Yu-bin originally had to undergo rehabilitation for over a year due to a wrist injury suffered at the 2021 World Table Tennis Championships in Houston.
Luckily, I was able to represent the country as the Asian Games were postponed for a year due to COVID-19.
Shin Yu-bin said, "I was actually not here because I was injured," and "I was thankful that I was lucky enough to be able to play in the game.
I played again and performed well, so I think it was my first Asian Games that I will never forget." He expressed his feelings.
Shin Yu-bin showed strong trust in Jeon Ji-hee, her partner, during the press conference and interview that day.
Shin Yu-bin repeatedly expressed her trust and gratitude, saying, “My sister is a very solid player.
She gives me confidence in her skills while playing doubles, and she is someone who allows me to play with confidence.”
On this day, the South Korean team faced North Korea in the finals of the Asian Games for the first time in 33 years.
However, Shin Yu-bin said she did not pay attention to such ‘external’ factors.
Shin Yu-bin said, "I prepared the same way as I always did with my sister, no matter who the opponent was.
As a result, good results followed, and I performed the ceremony happily without thinking about anything else."
Now, the next step Shin Yu-bin is aiming for is the 2024 Paris Olympics.
Shin Yu-bin said, "It hasn't been decided yet, but if she competes, I want to practice more diligently like I always do now, and when I compete, I want to create a game that I won't regret."
She says that just as Shin Yu-bin's skills are improving, her height is still growing.
She said, "I thought I had stopped growing, but she grew a little taller at 169cm.
But the bigger the better.
