Meanwhile at the 2016 Junior Worlds …
19 year old Rim Un Sim won the 63kg with a 105kg Snatch and 135kg Clean and Jerk!
Last year at Juniors Worlds she did 95/115 as a 58kg.
Also, somebody please correct me if I’m wrong here, but I think she is the sister of Rim Jong Sim, right?

Are you sure Rim Un Sim is going to revert to a 58kg? Her numbers as a 63 is remarkable better than her earlier days as 58. Tactically it would make sense as Deng wei is likely going to be dominant in 63 if she’s close to her results from the nationals but dropping that much weight might be a bigger liability.
Btw you didn’t look closely at the sanctions. Kim Un Ju’s probation doesn’t end until 10.12.2016, far beyond the reach of Rio. They also lost quotas -1 man & -1 women so they aren’t looking as strong as you might think.
