It was due to her reaction to Team China!
Koreaboo
Currently, The Olympic Games Paris 2024 is ongoing. Team USA diver Kassidy Cook is not only winning medals but going viral internationally.

While she and her teammate, Sarah Bacon, won silver, Team China’s Chen Yiwen and Chang Yani won gold. Cook’s virality is actually connected to Yiwen and Yani.

Chinese fans of Yiwen and Yani are low-key convinced that the two are dating. They ship the divers so much so that they have gone through their individual social media to find “evidence” that the two are more than teammates.
Chen Yiwen and Chang Yani who won gold in Diving had their relationship revealed after their social media was found.
Lots of LGBT hate back in China? Nope! Lots of praise, many Chinese commenting how romantic it is to win gold medal with your girlfriend, and saying they idolise… pic.twitter.com/uZYrsdDjUR

One of the moments that sparked fans’ shipping of the Chinese divers was how they celebrated when they won gold. Yiwen picked up partner Yani in a bridal style while Yani did a half-heart pose. It was undeniably giving couple vibes, and Cook was shook. She gasped in shock while watching them.

This moment went viral on social media internationally, including in China, which laughed at the American diver’s reaction. Yet, shortly after, she and her teammate, like the British team, did a piggyback pose.
So cute! Chinese divers Chen Yiwen and Chang Yani celebrated their victory at the women’s synchro 3m springboard with a princess carry.
Love how the others decided to carry their teammates too💕🫰#Paris2024 #OlympicGames #reactions #Diving pic.twitter.com/Bj0R2ZDZ0B
