Mongolia is traditionally renowned for its prowess in wrestling, archery, and boxing. However, with nearly 40 percent of its population aged between 15 and 35, the country is undergoing a dynamic transformation in its sporting landscape.
As Mongolia evolves, so does its approach to sports. The nation is now setting its sights on emerging disciplines such as 3-on-3 basketball, breakdancing, and esports for this year's Asian Games in Hangzhou. This shift not only reflects the youthful energy of the population but also Mongolia's ambition to make a mark in modern athletic arenas.
To capture and share this exciting transition, CGTN has partnered with TenGer TV to co-produce a special program. This initiative aims to highlight Team Mongolia's expectations and preparations as they gear up for the Hangzhou Asian Games, showcasing the blend of traditional strength and new-age dynamism.
