Ham Eun Ji, who finished seventh at the women's -55kg weightlifting, is a fan of the boy band The Boyz. BTS member V supported self-proclaimed BTS fan and teenage ping pong sensation Shin Yu Bin, the youngest member of the South Korean women's table tennis team at 17. V, apparently Shin's favourite member of the seven-piece act, has returned the love by posting a message of support for the Olympic athlete. Archer An San, 20, who won two gold medals at the mixed team and women's team events, is widely known as a hardcore fan of girl group Mamamoo. Swimming sensation Hwang Sun Woo, who broke Korean records at the men's 100m and 200m freestyle events in Tokyo, is another successful fan in the South Korean Olympic squad.
