The snowboard 'Shinsung' has become a 'queen'. Choi Ga-on (Sehwa Girls' High School) won the Olympic gold medal.

Choi Gaon won the women's halfpipe final at the '2026 Milan-Cortina D'Ampezzo Winter Olympics' held at Lvigno Snowpark in Italy on the 12th (local time), beating Chloe Kim (USA) with 88.00 points with 90.25.

With this, Choi Ga-on became the first Korean player to win the gold medal in the tournament. In addition, he wrote the history of Korean skiing's first gold medal in the Winter Olympics.

Choi Ga-on, who was born in November 2008, also broke Chloe Kim's record for the youngest gold medal in the event (17 years and 10 months) at the 2018 Pyeongchang Games.

Choi Ga-on, who slipped significantly in the first period and scored only 10 points, also failed in the second period, sliding as if his body were strained. However, in the final third period, he succeeded in all his skills and won the gold medal with 90.25 points.
