Lee Ha-sung collects silver in wushu

South Korean wushu athlete Lee Ha-sung secured a silver medal at the Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games in Japan, marking his second career medal at the continental competition. He achieved a score of 19.406 points in the men's daoshu and gunshu events, placing him just behind China's Gao Xiaobin, who earned the gold with 19.582 points. The competition evaluated athletes based on three categories: quality of movements, overall performance, and degree of difficulty, all scored on a 10-point scale.

In daoshu, Lee ranked second with 9.706 points, trailing Gao by 0.080 points, while in gunshu, he finished fourth with 9.700 points, behind Gao's 9.796 score. This silver medal adds to South Korea's wushu medal tally at the Asiad, following An Hyeon-gi's bronze in the men's taijiquan and taijijian event earlier in the competition. Lee also won a gold medal at the 2014 Asiad in the same host city.
