He revealed that he listens to music or sings to relax. What’s interesting is that his playlist is all-encompassing, including pop songs and piano classical music. He uses music to get rid of stress, making it an important ritual before every competition.
Huang Shengmin especially thanked the coach for his hard work. He emphasized that the coach would simulate each opponent's movements before the game so that he could feel the game situation in advance.
