A SOUTH Korean construction firm said yesterday it would give Olympic hero Yang Hak-seon an apartment after he overcame grinding poverty to win the country's first gold in artistic gymnastics. Yang, 19, triumphed on Monday in the men's vault final, and told reporters in London he wants to buy a home for his parents with the cash rewards. His family currently live in a shabby converted greenhouse.
