    Very nice lifts, her technique is flawless.

    Nobody else btw (arguably because of the 4 lifter limit).

    Well, Hsu (-53kg) is also a double Olympic champion with a 212 total for some reason…

      Right! Somebody needs to update that wiki article.

    Just a thought, at 121+153, Rim is lifting worse now than when she was just injured in 2015, and that’s with Olympic priming. So either that turned out to be a chronic injury permanently limiting her abilities or there could be something to the Chinese reporter saying that Rim faked her injuries in Houston for drama and that he saw her horsing around in the backroom after the event.
