I hope I helped just even a bit the junior colleagues to grow up to become excellent athletes with knowledge, morals, and health.” He further commented that “When I was attending school, I received a lot of love from senior colleagues. I, as well, want to continue on their spirit and show my love for the junior colleagues.”
