In handball, the women's team also won a bronze, beating Kazakhstan 38-26. Kim Do-won added a bronze in the men's 75-kilogram event in karate.

The men's basketball team is vying to win its first title in eight years when it goes head-to-head with China. The men's handball team, meanwhile, will face Iran in the final.

Kim Deok-hyeon, who already won a gold medal in the men's long jump, is seeking another gold in the triple jump.

Park Jae-myoung and Jung Sang-jin will take part in the final in men's javelin.

South Korea currently ranks second in the Games with 72 gold medals.
