The Korean women's handball team, led by head coach Lee Gye-cheong, will participate in the 20th Asian Women's Handball Championship. The team will train at Jincheon Training Center from 11th to 1st December. He will depart for India on December 1st, where he will face off from the 3rd to the 10th. Eight countries, including Korea, China, Japan, Iran, Kazakhstan, Singapore, India and Hong Kong, will participate in this competition. The top four teams will be given the right to participate in the 27th World Women's Handball Championship.
The Korea Handball Association gave coach Lee the baton ahead of this tournament. Coach Lee returned to the A national team for the first time in six years since 2018. He is a veteran leader who has led Samcheok City Hall since 2003. He also led Korean women's handball to the top at the 2018 Jakarta-Palembang Asian Games. In addition, she became the first non-European country to win the 2014 World Women's Junior Championships.
I have a pile of homework. Korean women's handball, which once commanded the world, seriously injured its pride. South Korea is a powerhouse who won two gold medals in the Olympics alone, but the current situation is not easy. In just a year, he bowed his head in a row at a big tournament. In the final of last year's Hangzhou Asian Games, he shed tears after being completely defeated by Japan. At the Paris Olympics, he recorded only one win and four losses in the group stage. South Korea packed early without advancing to the tournament.
The Handball Association chose to change. In 2022, both the men's and women's national teams selected domestic leaders for the women's national team for the first time in about two years since the appointment of foreign coaches. She helped revive the women's handball in Korea. Seoul City Hall coach Jeong Yeon-ho will join the national team as coach. Former Incheon City Corporation coach Kang Il-gu will join as a goalkeeper coach.
