Park Heejun is a South Korean Senior Male Kata. [1]

The 24-year-old became the first South Korean to win an Asian Games medal in kata, a non-sparring event in which practitioners demonstrate the Japanese martial art’s patterns and movements.[1] Since karate became an Asiad medal sport, South Korea had won eight bronze medals over the last six Asian Games, but all of them were from kumite, a sparring discipline.[2] Park won 3rd Place at the Karate1 Premier League - Jakarta 2014.[3]
