In addition, it was faster than the Paris Olympics standard record (OQT) of 1 minute 55.78 seconds.

The Korea Swimming Federation expected that Kim Min-seop's chances of winning the Paris Olympics qualification on his own had increased in the finals to be held this afternoon.

After the game, Kim Min-seop said, "I only wanted to check the record (in the preliminaries), but my record came out better than expected.

After the 150m mark, I saw the coach's signal, so I increased my speed a little more, and it felt better than I expected.

My brothers congratulated me in the locker room. “We greeted each other and encouraged each other to do well together in the finals,” he said happily.

Kim Min-seop, who set the first Korean record in this competition, will receive a prize of 1 million won for the Korean record from the federation and a product from Watson Company.
