South Korea, led by coach Jeong Seon-min, won 81-62 against North Korea in the second game of Group C of the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games Basketball Women's Group Stage held at the Hangzhou Olympic Sports Center Gymnasium in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, China on the 29th.
Korea, with two wins, will play its final group match against Chinese Taipei on October 1.
With this victory, Korea virtually confirmed its advancement to the quarterfinals.
This match was the first North-South team ball game held at the Asian Games.
The North Korean cheering squad took a seat on one side of the stands and cheered enthusiastically, and South Korea's athletes, including Korea Sports Council President Lee Ki-heung, team officials and Korean citizens prayed for the Korean team's victory.
Women's basketball is also a sport in which North and South Korea formed a unified team at the 2018 Asian Games in Jakarta and Palembang, the previous competition.
At that time, there were only three sports in which North and South Korea formed a unified team: women's basketball, canoeing, and rowing.
Members of the 2018 unified team included South Korea's Park Ji-soo, Kang I-seul (KB), and Park Ji-hyun (Woori Bank), while North Korea's then-coach Jeong Sung-sim, Ro Sook-young, and Kim Hye-yeon also appeared in this tournament.
The initial atmosphere was good in North Korea.
North Korea led by 10 points, 21-11, at one point in the second quarter, led by center Park Jin-ah, born in 2003, who is 205cm tall.
However, Korea later caught up with Lee Hae-ran (Samsung Life Insurance)'s 3-point play and Park Ji-soo's 4 points in a row, and then Lee Hae-ran and Park Ji-soo took turns hitting field goals, scoring 11 points in a row to take the lead at 22-21.
After a brief tense battle, Korea went ahead 29-25 with Lee So-hee's (BNK) 3-pointer and middle shot, and then Kim Dan-bi (Woori Bank) and Park Ji-hyun added 2 points each to take a 33-25 lead in the first half.
Korea, which had overcome a critical point since the middle of the second quarter, won without any major crisis, widening the gap to more than 10 points in the third quarter with Park Ji-hyun's three-pointer and Kim Dan-bi's two free throws.
Jisoo Park played with 18 points, 13 rebounds, 6 assists, 4 steals, and 3 blocks, but at the end of the fourth quarter, he felt some discomfort in his leg muscles and withdrew to the bench.
Kim Dan-bi and Kang I-seul also contributed to the attack, scoring 16 points each.
North Korea's Park Jin-ah performed well with 29 points and 17 rebounds, but was unable to overcome the objective power difference with South Korea.
