The Korean U18 women’s national team returned to Incheon International Airport Terminal 2 on Sunday. The Korean team advanced to the semifinals of the “2024 FIBA U18 Women’s Asia Cup” held in Shenzhen, China, and qualified for the 2025 FIBA U19 Basketball World Cup.

Zhang Tzuyu (Jang Jiyu), a 17-year-old girl from China, received the spotlight. Her profile was 220 centimeters tall, powerful under the basket. Song Yoon-ha (181 centimeters, Sookmyung Girls’ High School), the center of the national team, blocked Zhang in a match against China.

“He’s huge,” Song said. “He’s huge. That’s all I can say.” She added, “He must have seen very differently because he’s tall. That’s why he’s good at giving passes. He didn’t get a pass when he reached out.”

Song Yun-ha led Sookmyung Girls’ High School to victory last April as the MVP of the association’s long-running glory tournament. As one of the future women’s basketball futures in Korea, she experienced the close Chinese and Japanese women’s basketball futures at the Asian Games.

“Australia’s athletic ability and physicality were good, so it was hard to stop it. Japan was definitely fast, had good shooting and individual skills. With good teamwork, I had a lot to learn,” Song said. “China is Zhang Tzuyu.” Now, players of the national team go back to their schools and prepare for the weekend league. 토토사이트 순위

Song Yoon-ha said, “After the competition, I bought a present (boy car) for the teachers,” adding, “We talked with the team members that ‘it’s over now’ and let’s meet again healthy as we start the weekend league right away. It was nice to make small and happy memories with the team members who prepared the competition together.”
