[Financial News] Golden Blue said on the 21st that its para athletics team competed in the '46th National Para Games' held in Jeju Special Self-Governing Province, winning three medals and setting two Korean national records.
The event was held from the 11th to the 16th at 38 venues, including Kang Chang Hak Stadium in Jeju. Golden Blue athletes Noh Kyung-min and Sim Hyun-woo competed in athletics.
Noh Kyung-min, who competed in field events, won his first gold medal on the 11th with a throw of 33.35 meters in the men's F20 discus. He then took first place in the men's F20 javelin on the 14th with a throw of 44.48 meters, becoming a double champion at the Games. Noh set new Korean national records in both events, demonstrating outstanding performance.
Sim Hyun-woo also competed in a series of track events, including the 100m, 200m and 400m. On the 14th, he won a valuable silver medal in the men's 400m relay (100m × 4R).
Since 2018, Golden Blue has moved beyond one-off sponsorships by hiring para-athletes as full-time employees and supporting stable training environments and financial independence.
Golden Blue CEO Park So-young said, "Golden Blue will continue working to establish a foundation where diverse members of our society can grow together and to fulfill its corporate social responsibility."
