S. Korea picks up silver, bronze in synchronized diving events

Kim Su-ji and Kim Na-hyun teamed up for silver in the women's synchronized 3-meter springboard diving event at the Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games on Sunday, South Korea's best performance in this event since 2002. The two divers scored 254.70 points in their five attempts at Tokyo Aquatics Centre in Tokyo, finishing well behind China's Chen Yiwen and Chen Jia, who earned 328.56 points. Ker Ying Ong and Yiat Qing Lee of Malaysia got the bronze with 243.72 points. The women's synchronized 3m event was added to the Asian Games in 2002 in the South Korean host city of Busan, and China has won every gold medal since. This was Chen Yiwen's second straight gold. In that inaugural year, the host country's Kang Min-kyung and Im Sung-young won silver. South Korea was shut out of medals over the next four editions of the Asian Games before Kim Su-ji won bronze with a different partner, Park Ha-reum, in 2023. Kim Na-hyun has now bagged two medals in her Asian Games debut here, after winning bronze with Moon Na-hyun in the women's synchronized 10m platform event Saturday. In the men's event, Shin and Kim Yeo

S. Korea blows big lead to settle for silver in men's epee fencing team event

South Korea squandered a big lead and settled for silver in the men's epee fencing team event at the Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games on Sunday. The team of Park Sang-young, Jang Hyo-min, Nam Yeon-ho and substitute Kwon O-min lost to Kazakhstan's Kirill Prokhodov, Ruslan Kurbanov, Vadim Sharlaimov and Yerlik Sertay by 43-42 at Aichi Sky Expo in Tokoname, south of the main host city, Nagoya. None of the three South Korean fencers came close to medal contention in the individual event, but they joined forces for South Korea's 12th consecutive men's epee team medal. Team fencing events are contested in nine head-to-head bouts. Each bout is three minutes long, but it ends when one team's score reaches a multiple of five. A team scoring 45 points first or having more points than the opponent at the end of the ninth bout wins the event. Park and Prokhodov each scored three points in the opening bout, and then Jang outscored Kurbanov 3-1 in the next bout for a 6-4 South Korean lead. The advantage grew to 12-9 when Nam won his bout against Sharlaimov. Park then blew the match wide open by outscoring Serta

S. Korea gets revenge on Japan, wins Asiad handball gold

After losing 29-19 to Japan in the women's handball final at the Hangzhou Asian Games in 2023, South Korean players had been waiting for a chance to avenge that defeat over the past three years. Three years later, at the Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games, the two countries met again in the gold medal match on Sunday. South Korea beat Japan 27-23 in the sixth and final round of the women's handball competition to win the gold medal for the first time since 2018. "The loss made our hearts bleed three years ago, but this victory made us extremely happy," said goalkeeper Park Sae-young, who made 12 saves during the match. "We will take on Japan in future competitions, such as the Olympics, and we will keep working to win again." The women's handball competition at this year's Asiad did not feature a knockout stage. Instead, all seven teams played each other once, with medals awarded based on their final round-robin standings. Before Sunday's match, South Korea and Japan were the only undefeated teams, with five wins apiece, and the gold medal winner was decided in their sixth and final group round matc

S. Korea wins gold in women's handball, ending 8-year drought

South Korea won the women's handball gold medal at the Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games, ending an eight-year drought with a victory over host Japan. South Korea beat Japan 27-23 in the sixth and final round of the women's handball competition at Entrio in Inazawa, just northwest of Nagoya, Japan. With the win, South Korea finished first with six wins from six matches, edging out Japan, which had five wins and one loss. The women's handball competition in Japan did not feature a knockout stage. Instead, all seven teams played each other once, with medals awarded based on their final round-robin standings. Sunday's gold marked South Korea's first Asian Games title in eight years, after the country won the event in 2014 and 2018 before finishing without gold in 2023. It is also the country's eighth Asian Games title overall since women's handball was added to the quadrennial continental multisport competition in 1990. Before Sunday's match, South Korea and Japan were the only undefeated teams, with five wins apiece. The final South Korea-Japan matchup was a rematch of the event's final at the Hangzho
