Adieu Jang Mi-ran! Korea’s hope-lifting weightlifter

Jang Mi-ran of South Korea competes during the women's +75kg event at the London 2012 Olympic Games Weightlifting competition on August 5, finishing fourth at her adieu. Although the four-time world champion’s dream of winning a medal in three consecutive Olympic Games was dashed, Koreans will remember how her sweat and relentless efforts poured even after being involved in a car accident in 2010 (photo courtesy of the Korean Olympic Committee).
