The semifinals of the Park Shinjah Cup are now a worldwide event…Champions from Korea and Japan square off in the semifinals.

The semifinals of the 2023 Park Shinja Cup, which has grown into an international women’s basketball tournament, will feature a “Korea-Japan” matchup.
In particular, the teams that dominated Korea and Japan last season will compete for the final.
Asan Woori Bank, the winner of the 2022-2023 women’s professional basketball season, lost 68-74 to Australia’s Bendigo Spirit in the fourth game of Group A at Cheongju Gymnasium on the 31st.
After defeating Japanese powerhouse Toyota Antelopes 93-90 in the opening game, Woori Bank showed its dominance as the strongest team in Korea with wins over Samsung Life in Yongin (76-67) and Shinhan Bank in Incheon (85-58), but the final group game was a bitter pill to swallow.
