Summer Olympic gold record

Wikidata records 3 Summer Olympic gold medals in shooting sports for South Korea across 2008 and 2012. Only Summer Games gold medals count here. Winter-only careers and single-gold athletes are out of this pack. The medal list is a public award record for Jin Jong-oh (Q379517), not a reading of character. 2008: gold in shooting at the 2008 Summer Olympics – men's 50 metre pistol in shooting sports. 2012: gold in shooting at the 2012 Summer Olympics – men's 10 metre air pistol in shooting sports. 2012: gold in shooting at the 2012 Summer Olympics – men's 50 metre pistol in shooting sports.

The King of Hearts coordinate

Jin Jong-oh was born September 24 (1979-09-24). Month 9 and day 24 give solar value 13, which is the King of Hearts (The Compassionate King). Card Blueprints treats that as a 365-day coordinate: solar value = 55 − (2 × month + day). The year 1979 is unused. The King of Hearts does not predict Olympic results and is not a verdict on Jin Jong-oh for South Korea. Quoted system copy for the King of Hearts, not a biography of Jin Jong-oh: You hold emotional authority without hiding behind it. You carry authority in the realm of feeling—the maturity and depth to lead others emotionally and hold space with real strength. At your best, you command emotional situations with both power and authentic care, the steady presence people anchor to.

Jin Jong-oh in the public record

The only individual four-time Olympic champion in shooting, he is the most successful individual shooter at the Olympics, being the only athlete to have won three consecutive Olympic gold medals in an event (men's 50 metre pistol) in shooting. He holds the world record in both 10 metre air pistol and 50 metre pistol and held the final world record in 50 metre pistol until Jitu Rai broke it in 2017. On 17 August 2004, Jin won the silver medal in the men's 50 m pistol at the 2004 Summer Olympics, with two low-scoring shots in the final round after winning the qualification round. On 12 August 2008, Jin won the gold medal in the men's 50 m pistol at the 2008 Summer Olympics. He also gained the silver medal in the men's 10 m air pistol on 9 August of the same year. On 28 July 2012, Jin won the gold medal in the men's 10 m air pistol at the 2012 Summer Olympics. On 5 August, he won the gold medal in the 50m, becoming the first man to successfully defend the 50-metre pistol Olympic title. By doing so, Jin also became the first man to win the 10 metre air pistol and 50 metre pistol gold medals at the same Olympics, and one of the five shooters to win two individual gold medals at one Olympics, being the first man to have done so since Otto Olsen of Norway at the 1920 Summer Olympics.

  3. On 9 September 2014, Jin won the 50 metre pistol gold medal at the 2014 World Shooting Championships after shooting 583 points out of possible 600 in the qualification, thereby breaking the 34-year-old World Record of 581 points set by Soviet Aleksandr Melentyev at the 1980 Summer Olympics.
