The women's team competition in archery provided a thrilling conclusion as South Korea secured its 10th consecutive gold medal in the event. Initially cruising to a two-set lead against China, South Korea faced a challenge when some errant shooting allowed China to force a shoot-off.

The tension escalated as two of the South Korean arrows were reviewed for their landing positions between the 9-point and 10-point scoring rings. Ultimately, Lim Si-hyeon, Nam Su-hyeon, and Jeon Hun-young clinched the gold for South Korea by scoring 29 points in the shoot-off, surpassing China's 27 points.
