Kim Ryon-mi (Korean: 김련미; born February 8, 1983) is a North Korean judoka, who competed in the women's middleweight category.[1] She captured two silver medals in the 70-kg division at the Asian Judo Championships (2004 and 2005), and finished seventh at the 2004 Summer Olympics, representing her nation North Korea.[2]
Kim qualified for the North Korean squad in the women's middleweight class (70 kg) at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens, by placing second and receiving a berth from the Asian Championships in Almaty, Kazakhstan.[2] She easily thwarted Angola's Antonia Moreira with an earth-shattering ippon in her opening match, before succumbed to a similar tactic and an sumi gaeshi (corner reversal) hold from Australia's Catherine Arlove. In the repechage round, Kim chased Czech judoka and two-time Olympian Andrea Pažoutová with a sensational ōuchi gari (big inner reap) throw to score a waza-ari (half point) within a five-minute limit, but her rigid form was not enough to combat Belgium's Catherine Jacques in their subsequent match, relegating Kim into the seventh position.[3][4]
