이틀 남은 아시안게임... 대한민국 종합 메달 순위 현재 3위
We're down to the final few opportunities to claw up the standings before the curtain falls on the 2018 Asian Games.
South Korean athletes managed to haul in more gold.
Today's standout performance came from the women's cycling team.
For the highlights and more, let's turn to our Seo Bo-bin.
Saturday is the last day for South Korea to earn medals at the Asian Games and another gold medal has been won by the women's cycling team.
In the women's cycling madison competition, South Korea's team of Na Ah-reum and Kim You-ri earned a gold medal with a total of 76 points.
With this, Na Ah-reum becomes the first South Korean cyclist to win four gold medals at the Asian Games.
The unified Korea team has secured a spot in the Asian Games women's basketball final on Thursday, beating Taiwan by 89 to 66.
South Korea's center Park Ji-su had a double-double with 10 points and 11 rebounds, while three other teammates, including North Korean star Ro Suk-yong delivered 17 points to secure at least a silver medal in Jakarta.
Team Korea will be facing China in the finals on Saturday.
Whether it's gold or silver, the medal will go down in the history as this will be the first medal won by a unified Korean team in ball sports at an international sporting competition.
The medal won by the unified Korean team on Saturday's final will be awarded to neither South nor North Korea,… instead it will be awarded to 'Korea'.
The South Korean men's football team will be looking to defend its Asian Games title when it takes on Japan in the final on Saturday.
South Korea is powered up for the finals with the team led by top scorer Hwang Ui-jo and Tottenham Hotspur star Son Heung-min.
This final game will be attracting attention of football fans around the world interested in Son's future. South Korean footballers will be able to earn an exemption from military service with a gold medal.
There are still more events lined up later in the day with the women's over 78-kilogram judo finals at 7:06PM Korea time, the women's hockey finals at 7:30PM, and the women's 1-meter springboard diving final at 9:15PM.
