With Friday's victory, Lim and Kim became the second in Team Korea following fencer Oh Sang-uk to win two gold medals in Paris. South Korean archers have won three gold medals so far, sweeping the team events.

As of August 2, Team Korea is in seventh place in the total medal count, with seven gold, five silver, and four bronze medals.
