NAGOYA, Japan — The organizing committee of the Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games has apologized for mistakenly playing the North Korean anthem at a South Korean hockey match, the South Korean sports governing body said Saturday. Before the men's Pool A match against Bangladesh at Gifu Prefectural Green Stadium in Gifu, Japan, on Friday, the North Korean anthem was played instead of South Korea's. The match organizers then played Bangladesh's anthem before playing the South Korean anthem later. Right after the incident, the Korean Sport & Olympic Committee (KSOC) lodged an official complaint with the organizing committee over the anthem mix-up, demanding an official apology and prevention of a recurrence. "Around 9 p.m. later that day, two officials from the Asian Games organizing committee visited the South Korean team office and offered an official apology for the error in playing the anthem," the KSOC said in a release. KSOC President Ryu Seung-min said the KSOC will keep making efforts to help South Korean athletes focus entirely on their competitions without being distracted by issues unrel
INAZAWA, Japan — South Korea started its women's handball tournament at the Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games with a big win on Saturday. Coached by Lee Kye-chung, South Korea defeated Hong Kong 48-16 at Entrio in Inazawa, just northwest of the main host city, Nagoya, Japan. South Korea led 5-2 early and then went on an 11-2 run to blow the game wide open. Lee Won-jung led the way with nine goals and Jeon Ji-yeon chipped in eight goals. A dozen players had at least a goal for South Korea. The women's handball tournament this time will not feature a knockout stage. The top three teams among the seven in action after round-robin play will take home medals. South Korea will next play Kazakhstan on Sunday, Uzbekistan on Wednesday, China on Friday, Vietnam next Saturday and Japan on Sept. 27. Barring upsets along the way, the South Korea-Japan showdown will likely determine the gold medal. South Korea won gold medals in 2014 and 2018, but lost to Japan in the final of the 2023 competition. During the pregame ceremony, the anthems for both teams were not played. The organizers here also had an anthem bung
NAGOYA, Japan — South Korea's Lee Jun-suk reached the final of the men's singles in teqball at the Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games Saturday, securing at least a silver medal in the sport that made its debut at the continental multisport event. Lee was leading 12-10 and 3-2 against Zaid Eidan of Kuwait in the men's teqball semifinals at the Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games at Nagoya City Higashi Sports Center in northern Nagoya, Japan, when the opponent retired due to a thigh injury. He will face Ali Jalil Mezher Alelayawi of Iraq in the final slated for Sunday. Lee has been undefeated since the preliminary round. After winning all five matches in the group round, Lee beat Kudaiberdi Abdilazizovich Aidarbekov of Kyrgyzstan 2-0 (12-2, 12-1) in the quarterfinals. In the first set, Lee came back from an early 4-0 deficit. Thanks to his kicks and the opponent's errors, he evened the score and extended the lead to 10-6. Despite losing some points, Lee successfully held off Eidan's rally and closed out the set 12-10. When Lee was leading 3-2 in the second set, Eidan retired from the match. Invented in Hungary
