Olympic Games: Zhu Qing-Yuan Embraces Teammates in Heartwarming Video

The Chinese artistic gymnast gained popularity once more following the encounter with the Italians, this time through a video capturing her embracing all the athletes after their routines

Newsroom August 8 01:05

“Be like Zhu Quig-Yuan,” say many internet users who have fallen in love with the Chinese athlete at the 2024 Paris Olympic Games for her exemplary behavior and wonderful character.

The 18-year-old became a global sensation a few days ago when, during the balance beam medal ceremony, she shyly approached the podium where the two Italians, Alice D’Amato and Manila Esposito, were standing for a photo and bit her medal when she saw them doing it.

Watch the video:

Zhou Yaqin has to be the cutest Olympic medallist so far. ??

Another video was reshared, showing sweet Zhu going to each of her teammates individually to hug them after their performances.
