I talked about the other posts to provide context. These are not unknown people and she is not the only one who gets compared to the turkish shooter.
The poster likely chose the korean shooter as counterpart, because she already garnered attention beforehand for her aesthetic. She is already relatively famous, so I don't think it is surprising if somebody chose (and named) her over other, less known athletes. The poster also described her as "record-breaking" in the description, so I do not think it was the intention to make her look bad.
