At the athletics competition held as part of the early discovery of excellent prospects (2023 Gapyeong Education Center Festival Elementary and Middle Athletics Dream Festival), the performance of general players who did not belong to the track and field team stood out.
These general players took first place (78%) in 32 of the 41 events held. It is analyzed that this result is not because the performance of student athletes belonging to the track and field team is lower than that of general athletes, but because the number of schools and students running the track and field team is greatly insufficient.
