NAGOYA, Japan, Sept. 27 (Yonhap) -- South Korea's Nam Dong-heon won the gold medal in the individual dressage event at the Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games on Sunday, bringing home the country's first Asiad title in the event in 12 years.

Nam scored 75.190 points to finish first in the event's final at Equestrian Park in Tokyo.

Yu Jiayi of China won the silver medal with 75.050 points, while Aleksandra Maksakova of Palestine took bronze with 74.935 points.

Sunday's gold medal marked South Korea's first title in the individual dressage event since the 2014 Asian Games in Incheon.

Nam also won a silver medal in the team dressage event Friday.

South Korea had swept the individual dressage gold medal from the 2002 Asian Games through 2014, with the winning streak ending in 2018. At the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games, the country failed to win any medal for the first time since the event was first contested in 1986.

Dressage is a form of horse riding performed in exhibition and competition, with riders executing memorized sequences and directing their horses to perform the requested movements.

For each dressage movement, horses and riders are judged against a common standard, with judges evaluating the horse's gaits, submission and impulsion, as well as the rider's performance.

Nam and his horse, Leonidas, scored 70.559 points in the dressage team final, which also served as the qualifier for the individual final, recording the highest score among all participants.

He improved to 75.190 points in the individual final, edging out the Chinese rider by 0.140 point.

Nam said he was pleased to win medals at his third Asian Games. At his first two Asiad appearances, he failed to win a medal.

"In the team event, I was so touched that all our team members got on the podium. This was the most impressive moment at this Asian Games," Nam said in a video interview with the Korean Sport & Olympic Committee.

"And I want to thank my horse, Leonidas, for doing its best. We have gone through many hard times."

日本名古屋，9月27日（韩联社）——韩国选手南东宪周日在爱知-名古屋亚运会个人盛装舞步比赛中获得金牌，为韩国赢得了12年来首个亚运会该项目冠军。

Nam 在东京马术公园举行的该赛事决赛中获得 75.190 分，排名第一。

中国选手于佳怡以75.050分获得银牌，巴勒斯坦选手亚历山德拉·马克萨科娃以74.935分获得铜牌。

周日的金牌标志着韩国自 2014 年仁川亚运会以来首次在个人盛装舞步项目中获得冠军。

南在周五的团体盛装舞步比赛中也获得了一枚银牌。

从2002年到2014年，韩国包揽了亚运会个人盛装舞步项目的金牌，连胜纪录在2018年终结。在2022年杭州亚运会上，韩国自1986年该项目首次举办以来，首次未能获得任何奖牌。

盛装舞步是一种在表演和比赛中进行的马术运动，骑手们会执行预先记住的动作序列，并指挥他们的马匹完成要求的动作。

对于盛装舞步的每个动作，马匹和骑手都会根据共同的标准进行评判，裁判会评估马匹的步态、服从性和推进力，以及骑手的表现。

南和他的马莱昂尼达斯在盛装舞步团体决赛中获得了 70.559 分，该决赛同时也是个人决赛的资格赛，南获得了所有参赛者中的最高分。

他在个人决赛中得分提高到 75.190 分，以 0.140 分的微弱优势击败了中国选手。

南表示，他很高兴能在第三次亚运会上获得奖牌。在他前两次参加亚运会时，均未能获得奖牌。

“在团体赛中，我们所有队员都登上领奖台，我非常感动。这是本届亚运会上最令人印象深刻的时刻，”南在接受韩国体育和奥林匹克委员会的视频采访时说道。

“我还要感谢我的马莱昂尼达斯，它尽了全力。我们一起经历了许多艰难的时刻。”
