South Korea's "Beijing Township Sports" said that the South Korean short track speed skating team has been troubled by various disputes over the years. The team has previously revealed that coaches have performed sexual violence to athletes, and male athletes have encountered sexual harassment during training. South Korea's News News Agency said that the Korean ice movement seems to have no calm days, and various accidents are constantly, and various accidents, sexual harassment, fraud, drinking alcohol in the athletes, illegal gambling ... there are many types. South Korea ’s KBS TV stated before that although short track speed skating is the“ self -esteem ”of the Korean winter movement, it is always at the center of controversy and scandal.

"Jingxiang Sports" said that the athlete's "indulgence mentality" was considered the main reason for the constant reasons for the Korean ice sports scandal. As the team pursues "performance supremacy", as long as the results are excellent, the punishment after the mistake is not painful or itchy, and returned to the ice rink quickly, and is still active on the international competition stage, so it cannot play a warning role. Other athletes will think that even if trouble causes trouble, it will not affect career. The Yonhap News Agency said that it is also one of the reasons for the lack of ability of the Korean Ice Alliance and the heads of the national team. Relevant sources related to the Korean Ice Sports said that the coach lacks strict management of the off -border behavior of the athletes.
