Let's take it to Rio, where it's Day THREE of the 2016 Olympics.
With a number of events held on Monday, Team Korea was on the end of some shock defeats in men's archery and Judo.
Let's turn to our Lee Un-shin, who's keeping up with the action for us,
Unshin, some highlights but overall a frustrating day for Korea's athletes...
That's right, Mark, with a couple of impressive displays but more disappointing losses.....day THREE of the Olympics, wasn't exactly a great day for Team Korea.
And although some questions remain over whether the nation can finish in the TOP TEN of the medal rankings, Korea still has high hopes for all the remaining athletes.
Here's a wrap-up of the Monday's action, starting with archery.
Fresh off her triumph in the team event,... 2012 Olympic champion archer Ki Bo-bae , got off to a comfortable start in the tournament round.
Now set to compete in the round of 16 on Thursday,... she cruised past her Kenyan and Ukrainian opponents in the rounds of 64 and 32.
But on the other hand, in a huge upset, top ranked archer Kim Woo-jin crashed out in the second round of the men's individual event.
Indonesia's Riau Ega Agatha beat the 24-year old Korean superstar six sets to two.
Agatha's world ranking? A relatively low 29th.
Despite setting a world record in the ranking round... and snagging an impressive gold in the men's team event, Kim's competitive action in Brazil ends here.
