South Korean pistol shooter Kim Ye-ji collapsed during a press conference in Imsil on August 9, shortly after winning a silver medal at the Paris 2024 Olympics. The 31-year-old athlete fainted due to accumulated fatigue and stress from a hectic schedule, according to her coach, and briefly experienced seizures. She was taken to a nearby hospital for observation but did not require serious treatment. Kim gained fame for her calm demeanor and style during the Olympics, where she narrowly missed gold to compatriot Oh Ye-jin, who set an Olympic record. Following her Olympic success, a video of her from a previous event went viral, capturing the attention of celebrities including Elon Musk. Kim is expected to fully recover and undergo a medical check-up as part of her recovery process.
