Not only the weightlifting in particular, but especially the 55kg that's about to start now considering Om Yun-chol is one of my all-time favourite athletes

Kwak Un-bom  in Dutch could be sort of translated to 'Throw a bomb' or something, interesting name for a North Korean

By the way about the name abbreviations: it's not perfect, but just keep the start list close and it's not hard to know who's who....more importantly they finally have some sort of live graphics, although it's still a bit 'meh' that during the CJ they show the CJ standings in those graphics instead of the much more important total standings  

 

But still, improvement! 

 

you always keep this link open and you don't need TV graphics they should also the NOC code or at least a flag near the name

Since I was in time only to see the last two attempts (one Thai and one Turkmen), and the commentator was a little vague about the 'judges error' in the 2nd attempt, what happened exactly? I am looking the video now and see she tried and succesfully lifted 104kg, but then did the second attempt again at 105 (and missed it). I read a comment here that there was a wrong weight, so can anyone enlighten me? In the '104kg' lift, how much did she actually lift?

 

I didn't get it how much but those who are very expert in weightlifting can notice that by color of those weights on the barbel. that's how probably someone in the jury found out that. (who knows maybe that wasn't just a mistake !?? intentional maybe) one thing is for sure it was definitely not 104kg.

I do that when I watch on TV, but the problem is it's not on TV and I have to watch on a stream, which is at least 30-40 seconds behind but probably even a minute.....meaning I'd see the lift result too early every time  I do use it after snatch though

I'm quite certain someone on Reddit or something figures it out
