Rising Star Sailors from Korea

A desire for a big challenge with small forces

Although Korea is a peninsula, sailing is not very popular, so there are not many sailors despite the large population.

Nevertheless, the Sailors continue to dream, aim, and strive to become Olympian.

Although most of the team has no experience in Keelboat racing, we are ready to compete at the SSL GOLD CUP with enthusiasm because we are ready to accept and learn about new opportunities and experiences at any time.

Se-woong Kim

During his high school years, Se-woong Kim achieved an impressive record at the Korean National Sports Festival, winning bronze, silver, and gold medals at the 97th, 98th, and 99th editions, respectively. These achievements earned him a place on the Korean national team. At the age of 18, he joined a professional sailing team, becoming the youngest professional sailor in South Korea at the time. Since turning professional, he has continued to build a strong competitive record, including podium finishes at the President’s Cup, one of South Korea’s most prestigious sailing competitions.

Jia Kim was introduced to sailing at an early age through her father, a national team sailing coach. She began her career in the Optimist class before progressing to the ILCA 6 class, where she demonstrated her talent by winning multiple national championship titles. She later transitioned to the double-handed 470 class, broadening her sailing experience and developing her skills in team-based competition. As a member of the Korean national team, she has consistently competed on the international stage, achieving a bronze medal at the most recent Asian Games.

Sung-bin Son began his sailing career in the Optimist class, quickly demonstrating exceptional talent and determination. He made history at the 2014 Asian Games in Incheon by winning a gold medal in the Optimist class, becoming South Korea’s youngest Asian Games sailing gold medalist. He later transitioned to the ILCA 7 class, continuing to demonstrate his competitive ability with multiple podium finishes at national-level competitions, including second- and third-place results. With extensive experience in both domestic and international competitions, he has developed into an accomplished sailor with a strong competitive background. Currently competing as a professional athlete representing Daegu, South Korea, he continues to pursue success on the international stage.
