The first time Olympian took home the silver medal in the 10-meter air pistol women’s event on Saturday, but it wasn’t just her razor-sharp focus and killer skill that grabbed the attention of many.With her baseball cap on backwards, with her shoulder length hair slicked back and tucked in with and in a ponytail, accessories and complete with a stone-cold glare, Kim had everyone in awe at the energy she exuded that had new global fans declaring she won gold in their books.
Even Tesla, Space X and X head honcho couldn’t resist chiming in that it would be “cool” to feature her in an action movie to a viral video of Kim.While her new-found fame may have come in Paris, it was her performance at the International Shooting Sport Federation World Cup in Azerbaijan last May, where Kim won gold in the 25-metre pistol competition and setting a world record in the process, that had everyone signing up for her fan club.
