South Korea's Lee Dae-Hoon was taken out of taekwondo action far sooner than anyone expected. The No. 1 seed in men's 68 kg, Dae-Hoon was defeated by Uzbekistan's Ulugbek Rashitov in Round of 16 competition. Dae-Hoon had a commanding lead over Rashitov in the third frame, but Rashitov scored eight points to take a late lead before Dae-Hoon tied the score with 11 second to go. The bout went to the golden round and Rashitov landed a two-point tunk shot just 17 seconds into the extra period to win it.
