Woo Hee-jun chanced upon kabaddi during her trip to India in 2014. Since then, she fell in love with the sport and became a member of the South Korean national kabaddi team the next year. To promote the sport and break common stereotypes against athletes, she went on to participate in the Miss Korea & Miss Earth beauty pageants and became the 2019 Miss Korea 1st runner-up. But she didn’t stop there! Her next challenge is to become an army officer as she has 6 months left of her cadet training.

Sending failed. Try again(possible reason-not gives ❤)
she's very brave to be travelling to India by herself. I heard it's a beautiful country and I love indian food,, but not really recommend for a pretty girl to go there alone.
This woman is so strong, mentally and physically. I feel so proud as an Indian.
I wud love to play kabaddi with u.
Hello hyungwon!
she is an example of a good strong woman. i wish her more achievements in future.
As an Indian I thought we were the only ones playing Kabbaddi and winning world cups every time because we are the only one actually playing.
शिरीष ರಾಮಾಯ really i had no idea, i have never really heard about kabbaddi being played outside if india. interesting
@शिरीष ರಾಮಾಯ india lost lol no way
@शिरीष ರಾಮಾಯ I mean, Iran isn’t exactly a massive difference to India. Korea on the other hand.....
DPR Korea has won against India
@@highlanderbrigade4205 lol when
She is exceptional --- inside and out. The ambition, the confidence, the passion, the grace, the feminity.
Fearless and bold. No stopping for this woman.
I saw the interview of Korean King just now and it's remarkable that both players take it as their personal responsibility to do everything in their capacity to promote the sport.
Woah! I shud travel to Indian too to find my potential!😂
Yess welcome but after covid
😂
Ya come ..india is less expensive than korea
Please come to india! Welcome you with open arms ❤️
Haha welcome!!
in Indonesia we called it 'Gobak Sodor'
i played this traditional game when i was a elementary school student😌
now i know, this is a sport and it called kabaddi..😳😳✨✨✨
Ga sama anjir
Search for pro kabaddi. They have modernized this sport.
Ya bro but this is a south indian traditional game .kabadi was born in tamilnadu south india. Google it

Also the interviewer is so cute
People here in India are doing taekwondo and people there in Korea loves kabbadi and we loved to see people are connecting through different cultures through sports and music! It's amazing! and she is so inspiring!! More power!
Korea always fascinates me, will surely visit korean. Her interview was amazing, motivational. Happy that India🇮🇳 could inspire her.
Make kabbadi go international!
Kabadi is the state game of tamilnadu 😋
Love from tamilnadu 💜
Yes n kabbadi was born in tamil nadu only
Kabaddi is most popular sport in himachal
@@greatpeopleofhimachal5043 ss bro kabadi is orjin from Tamilnadu south india
@@gayathrilgayu4206 origin, all part is same, there is no tamil in ancient India May be possible that it specifically originated from any part of tamilnadu but it played by all indian and equally grow in every part.

KEEP GOING GIRL I SUPPORT YOU
AS AN INDIAN 🇰🇷🇰🇷💜🇮🇳🇮🇳
kabbadi is extremely extremely popular game
u get a lot of nostalgic moments ,all the bruises that you show off,all the successfull raids all those defends ,those skinny friends who never played and those tough gys,those chitkusss who always slipped, that sound of kabaddi kabaddi kabaddi.... man im in tears filled with memories
Being an Indian I am really proud and She is really motivating
놀랍습니다 ... 당신이 자랑 스럽습니다 !!
그리고 인도는 멋진 나라입니다! ❤️
Love the way she says the word kabaddi.
Go Team Korea🇰🇷 and India🇮🇳
Wow.. Really glad to see a traditional sport of India take off as an International Game being recognised and loved by many. Thankyou so much for loving and promoting it Miss. Heejun-si and KoreaNow.👍❤️
Yes, we support and appreciate you love from India 🇮🇳😉🙋
Wow..I am so happy that she got motivated by our Indian game Kabbadi..and Korea has a kabaddi center is so great👍👍💜💜
I think she said she likes this sports because kabbadi does not discriminate
She participated in 2019 Miss Korea to promote kabaddi but she ended up being second place, that’s crazy!!! And then army officer??? This woman is amazing. There’s nothing she can’t do.
Beyond her story, I love how although her English isn’t perfect but she is super comfortable in speaking there!
As a k-pop stan i’m saying this: this video has nothing to do with BTS,blackpink or any other k-pop group.Just because it’s talking about south korea doesn’t mean it’s talking about k-pop so don’t go into the comments like “EKKK army 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜” or “OMG BLINKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!”. It’s annoying and has nothing to do this the video.
Yes exactly
Yes
Well I think the comments have drowned, now I can't find any which I'm really happy about....
What an inspiring, modest lady - good luck with all your endeavours. I have never heard of her chosen sport but it’s great to hear about it.
Woooow she is so inspiring 💜
As an indian I'm feeling very proud rn❤️
Lots of love from India 🇮🇳
*I know her, she's miss Korea 🇰🇷, also in military and I watched her in kabaddi woman's Asian Games.*
Jang kun Lee is my favorite Korean player in pro kabaddi league.
I'm an indian and I feel proud to see a Korean playing kabaddi coz it's something new to see from Korea. As a woman myself, I'm actually proud to see a woman breaking stereotypes about sports and challenging herself to show the world that nothing can stop you if you have your mind set onto your goals. I feel motivated after listening to her. Sending her love and hope to see her in the next international kabbadi games.
Stop commenting BTS Army . This isn't related to them.
yess point🙏👍
Correct
Periodt!!
well bts is Pride for Korea, even the president himself said whenever there is something about Korea everyone 1st think about bts but i get ur point tho
@@krist6714 so what? Everyone is mentioning BTS cause she is Korean! What kind of stupid mentality is that? I'm an army myself but it is SOO ANNOYING reading these comments about BTS
Being an indian I am so happy you really choose Kabaddi and came india to learn our sports... Thankyou Korea now for this amazing story you share with us 🇮🇳😍🇰🇷
It's good to see that now kabbadi is being popular in South Korea !!!!!!!!

Woo is a multi talented girl. I appreciate her for having such strong appetite to try something new and try to excel in it. This attitude may inspire others.
I like her mindset and perspective. I loved how she especially explained about those restrictions and stereotypes. It was amazing to listen. I guess I'm her fan now.
💜💜💜 Congratulations on everything you have accomplished so far in your journey. Early congratulations on your Army commission. Hope you will inspire and motivate others to find their own passion and path in life. 💜💜💜💜
Love from India
Its so heart filling to see her passion and dedication towards something she truly believes in.
Thank you! That is very motivational for me, as a woman, and at at time where I have been at a cross roads with myself and my career.
Omg I can't believe this !! Kabbadi is tamilnadu's national sport !!! Proud South Indian !! (Ofc India )
S G nooo ! But usually yes , but since India is very diverse we have a lot of cultures, so kabaddi was originated from tamilnadu . For India, hockey is the national sport but Indians love cricket too ! Which is the national sport of England..yeah it's like that !
Aayushi Hiray yeah I meant that lmao
I love the way you add " ofc India " 🤣🤣🤣
I can feel it .... I'm tamil
Rose Mary E18CS030 yeahh thank you !! Same !! Vanakkam !

I really appreciate her spirit ! She can actually do anything she decided to with great dedication. She inspired me . Love from India .
Its very inspiring for other country people to take interest in our sports and spread its lernings back to their country. It could not have been easy for first generation of international player, but you did it anyways. Huge respect Miss.

Woah what an Inspiring woman!!! I've played national level kabaddi and I know how interesting this game is. She broke stereotypes Bravo. There r so few ppl who can successfully change careers. FIGHTING UNNIE
Amazing...im proud of you!
And India is a nice country!❤️
I remember playing kabaddi in the sand with my friends..it is actually very fun and kabaddi is being pronounced wrongly..but we understand the language barrier.
She’s so cute, humble and hard working! Very inspiring woman! ❣️
Hee jun.. I'm so glad to listen your thoughts.. Yes girl you are breaking a lot of stereotypes.. Within in Korea and outside. You are also inspiring many young Indian girls too to follow similar passion.. And also you are so right about doing what you like to do.. Previous background should not hold one from pursing new adventures.. Wishing you all the best for future endeavors.. 💜
Kabbadi is an indian sport which is relatively very old cos its origin is found in tamilnadu a state in india. Tamilnadu is a state where kabbadi is found where people irrespective of genders play this game. As many know close relations between tamil and hangul language, with this sports getting widespread recognition in korea is great!. I believe some time in future south korea and state of tamilnadu acknowledge their cultural similarities and their people's interest in each other's culture for the benefit of them.
Oh mu God third, keep going heejun
Love from India 💜💜💜💜
Lots Of Love From India God Bless you Achieve More Success in Life🇰🇷🇮🇳
Yeah the video gives proud and happy feeling 💜💜
Anchor :Whether I can join the team

Ya bro but kabadi was born in tamilnadu south india
Hello m also a regional level kabaddi player in india ...we won lots of award too during our school n universitys games..nice to know that wow she get inspires from here..lots of power to u girl
"I like to show them I can do anything, if I dreamed it or if I like to do something"
👏👏Woow you are an inspiration for young people.💜💜💜💜
Can everyone stop mentioning BTS please?? THIS video has nothing to do with BTS!! It's so annoying!!
same 😅
True 😂 it's very annoying
I'm tired telling everyone 😴
I was imagining it like if it's video about Indonesian athlete or something and a random ass comment saying tht would piss me off 🤣 even tho I'm an army but.... This is a legit accomplishment to the korean athletes and Indians in general bcs their unique sport is more well-known,, I had a thought tht it is maybe an inside joke between Indians kpop fans that most are armys or things related to tht but it still doesn't justify the matter of ignoring the content of the video as a whole 😅 anyone who has a different point of view than me could explain this bcs I don't see any good image coming from doing "spam" (as most of those who got more likes are those kinds of comments)
