Girls' Generation member Taeyeon has shown off her incredible shooting talent
On March 25, the channel “Hyo's Level Up” released a video titled “Taeyeon and Hyo's Shooting Talent that Surprised Kim Ye-ji”. In the video, shooting athletes Kim Ye-ji and Taeyeon held a shooting class.
Before practicing shooting in earnest, the three challenged themselves to shoot bb guns. Kim Ye-ji was the first to go, confessing that it was her first time shooting bb guns, and she failed in all her attempts. On the other hand, students Tae-yeon and Hyo-yeon showed remarkable talent as they succeeded in shooting non-bullets one after another.
Then, the real air pistol shooting began. Tae-yeon was the first to try, saying, “I'm so nervous. It (the air rifle) is too heavy. She (Taeyeon) is not very fit.” However, Taeyeon surprised everyone by hitting the center of the target in her practice shots.
Kim Ye-ji said, “You did really well,” and praised her shooting skills. Tae-yeon was excited and asked, “Can I make the national team?” Kim Ye-ji replied, “You can. You can go to the Olympics in LA,” to which Tae-yeon responded, ‘Beat the singer,’ adding to the fun.
Meanwhile, Kim Ye-ji, a shooting athlete, got married in 2018 and has a daughter with her husband. She won a silver medal in the women's 10-meter air pistol at the Paris 2024 Olympics. Her Olympic performance earned her a rave review from Tesla CEO Elon Musk, who said she should be cast in an action movie, and she recently landed a role as a killer in the movie Crush, marking the beginning of her acting career.
