Team Ponyble won the first women's professional basketball All-Star Game in Busan in six years.

Team Ponyble beat Team Unibble 100-89 in the BNK Financial Group 2025-2026 Women's Professional Basketball All-Star Game held at Sajik Indoor Gymnasium in Busan on the 4th.

The MVP was won by Byun So-jung. He led the attack with 25 points. Byun So-jung became the best player in her first All-Star Game.

In Ponyble, Kang Yi-seul also hit a three-run, three-run shot. Jinan also scored 14 points. In Uniform, Jihyun Shin scored 19 points with its last-minute performance, and Sonia also scored 16 points.

It is the first time that the women's basketball All-Star Game will be held in Busan since the 2019-20 season, and the first time ever held at Sajik Gymnasium. With the top 20 players in the All-Star voting selected and participating, this year it was divided into Team Ponyble (Director Park Jung-eun, Coach Kim Wan-soo Choi Yoon-ah) and Team Unile (Director Lee Sang-beom, Coach Wi Sung-woo and Ha Sang-yoon).

For Team Uniform, Iijima Saki (Hana Bank, No. 1 in fan voting), Lee Hae-ran (Samsung Life Insurance, No. 4), Kim Sonia (No. 5), Lee So-hee (BNK, No. 8), and Jihyun Shin (Shinhan Bank, No. 9) came out as the starting players. Kim Dan-bi (Woori Bank, No. 2), Kang Yi-seul (KB Stars, No. 3), Shin Yi-seul (Shinhan Bank, No. 6), Park So-hee (Hana Bank, No. 7), and Heo Ye-eun (KB Stars, No. 10) were the best 5.

At the beginning of the first quarter, Kim Sonia and Lee So-hee continued their activities in front of home fans, and Psaki, the No. 1 All-Star, also scored three points. In response, Team Ponyble also had a close game as Kang Yi-seul and Shin Yi-seul's three-point shots went in. Unibull scored Kim Jong-un's last All-Star Game, following Jinyoung Kim and Kang Yoo-rim's outposts, but the gap narrowed due to Byun So-jung's performance.

Ponyble raised the mood by showing Jinan's bold ceremony and scoring his points and teammates' chances in the attack. With Kang Yoo-rim's three points, the first quarter ended with Unibull's 37-35 lead.

In the second quarter, Ponyble's counterattack began as Park So-hee scored in a series of matches with her teacher Lee Sang-beom. In addition, Shin Eul and Byun So-jung's three-point shots began to widen the gap. Park Jung-eun, who appeared on the court, then started to give three points to the coach, and the score went up. In the second quarter, Kang Yu-rim made a last-minute outer shot, but the first half ended with Ponyble leading 62-57.

In the third quarter, the coaches of both teams began to be deployed in earnest. Coach Kim Wan-soo, who appeared on the court pointing out Kang's defense, disgraced himself by scoring two turnovers. Head coach Ha Sang-yoon was pushed by Shin Yi-seul's backside, who had eaten together in the past, and head coach Wi Sung-woo drew laughter by being pointed out one after another by Kim Dan-bi, who turned into a referee. Coach Choi Yoon-ah recreated the kick when he was a player with Jinan.

Unible once tied the game and went on a heavy chase in the fourth quarter. However, Ponyble's potential was also strong, and in the end, he managed to finish well to keep the victory.

BNK Lee So-hee won the three-point shoot contest, another fun part of the All-Star Game. Lee So-hee won as the representative of Korea's All-Star last year and won the three-point shooting competition for the second consecutive year. Lee So-hee will receive 1 million won in prize money.

An unusual event happened in the preliminary round. "Three-point shooting master" Kang Yi-seul ranked first with 23 points and Lee So-hee ranked second with 21 points, with BNK Kim Jong-un, who participates in the competition alone, passing third with 20 points. Then, in the finals, all three players scored 15 points and headed to extra time. Here, Lee So-hee scored five points to reach the top.

Lee So-hee also won the skill challenge held after the end of the third quarter and won two gold medals. He came in 19 seconds from the skill challenge, which required him to quickly perform basic dribbles, pass machines, 3-pointers, zigzag dribbles, and layups.
