I wasn’t expecting to fall in love last week. Then, Kim Yeji took to the stage at the 2024 Paris Olympics, and the world collectively swooned over the pistol shooter’s impeccable drip and infinite aura points. That focus. Those glasses. That baseball cap. A new talent crush (and source of sartorial inspiration) was unlocked through her cyberpunk swag and immortalized through a silver medal and a swath of social media posts simping over the athlete’s past and present ‘fits. Cue the TikTok meowing sound effect.
The 31-year-old represented South Korea in the 10-meter air pistol event, where she was joined by her compatriot and roommate (aw) Oh Ye Jin, who took home the gold medal for the event with a record-breaking score.
