According to Yonhap News,

The Ulsan Metropolitan Office of Education announced on Oct. 14 that 30 student-athletes are to participate in the 42nd National Para Games in Ulsan from Oct. 19 to 24.

They will vie for medals in seven categories, including weight lifting, sprinting, and swimming. In last year's 41st Games, Ulsan swept six golds, four silvers, and three bronzes in weightlifting.

Therefore, the Education Office has high hopes for their performance not only in weightlifting but also in sprinting and swimming.

Roh Ock-hee, the head of the Education Office, said, "We hope that the games render opportunities for the athletes to realize their skills and step forward," adding, "Whenever I can make time, I will go visit the stadium to root for our student-athletes."
