Viet Nam won three bronze medals during the first day of the Asian Taekwondo Championships which was kicked off in HCM City yesterday.
The medals went to Ngo Thi Thuy Dung in the women's single event, Nguyen Minh Van in the men's single category and the women's team at the Asia Juniors Poomsae Championships.
