South Korea edge North Korea to earn Bronze medals at Asian Games

South Korea cut neighbours North Korea and their giant centre Jin A Pak (201-C-2003) Ji Na down to size to win bronze with a 93-63 victory. Jin A Pak, who stands 6ft 9in, scored a game-high 27 points but it was not enough. A unified Korea women's basketball team won silver at the last Asian Games, in 2018. They were among three unified Korean teams, along with rowing and canoeing, at those Games. Thursday's bronze-medal game featured four players from the 2018 team, two from each side. "It was nice to see them again," Ji-Su Park (195-C-1998), who was part of the 2018 team, told Yonhap news agency. "But after that I felt nothing special as they were just like players from other countries."
