Vietnam wins gold at 1st World Taekwondo Demonstration Team Championships

ABO/NDO- The Vietnamese team on August 20 won a gold medal in the preliminary round of the Freestyle poomsae event at the first World Taekwondo Demonstration Team Championships hosted by the Republic of Korea.

The Freestyle class requires a higher level of difficulty than the Recognized class, in which the Vietnamese team had earlier won a silver in the preliminary round and a bronze in the final.
