7 photos of South Korean sniper Kim Yeji looking like an action movie star while winning the silver medal

Kim Yeji, who is from Seoul in South Korea, is a sport shooter who competed in the 10 meter air pistol during the 2024 Paris Olympics.

After setting a world record in the 25m pistol competition in May, she won the silver medal during Olympic competition. She finished behind only her roommate and teammate, Oh Ye Jin.

Yeji went semi viral on Tuesday thanks to her amazing aesthetic, including very cool shooting glasses, that made her look like she was the star of an action movie. She also carried her daughter’s elephant doll on her hip during the competition.

Here are some of the most iconic photos of her from her time in Paris:
