South Korea’s Olympic committee president Ryu Seung-min criticizes the Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games organizers, saying he would give them a failing grade. Speaking to South Korean media at the Main Press Centre in Nagoya, Ryu says operational problems—particularly with athletes’ accommodations and transportation—affect competitors’ performance.
Ryu acknowledges that conditions have improved since the beginning of the Games but argues that remaining issues continue to harm athletes. He frames the criticism as necessary because performance impacts require accountability, describing the situation as serious incompetence if problems persist. Both outlets report that he compares the event to other international competitions he has attended in his roles as an athlete and official, reiterating that his overall assessment would be an “F.”
