For today’s blog, I am going to write about the 2010 Asian game. It is holding in Guangzhou right now. In the Asian game, there are 42 kinds of sports and 45 countries in Asia are participating to get the medals. As same as Olympic, there are 3 kinds of medals: Gold, Silver, and Bronze. It is good to get the gold medals rather than other two medals. However, it is important to do their best rather than only aiming for the gold medals. China is the strongest country in Asian game. They get almost half of the gold medals in Asian game. It may be because there are so many people in China. However, they are good because they do the training since they were young. In Korea, all males must have 2 years of the military service before the age of 30. And it is the biggest problem for the male sport players in Korea because almost all sport players can’t play well after 30. However, in Asian game, if someone gets the gold medal, then he does not have to take the military service. That is why the Asian game is so important for the male sport players in Korea. It is sad that not all of the sport players can get the duty of army off, but it motivates the players to do better than what they can do. I hope Korea does really well in this Asian game. Some may cry of what they get. However, it is important to do their best without regret.
