Chung Eui-sun, President of Han Yang-gung-hyeop (Chairman), who directly witnessed the bronze medal in the compound women's team event and the silver medal in the mixed team event at the 2026 Aichi-Nagoya (Japan) Asian Games, said, "I felt that there is a lot of work the association needs to do going forward."

In an interview after the conclusion of the tournament's compound women's team event held on the 30th at the Multi-purpose Plaza of Okazaki Central Comprehensive Park in Aichi Prefecture, Japan, Jeong Ui-seon (Chairman) encouraged the athletes by saying, "Captain Park Jeong-yoon, Captain Choi Yong-hee, and all the athletes fought very well." On this day, Jeong (Chairman) also served as an award presenter for the mixed team event.

South Korea won the bronze medal in the women's team event featuring Kang Yeon-seo (Seongsa Middle School), Park Jeong-yoon (Changwon City Hall), and Park Ye-rin (Korea National Sport University), followed by winning the silver medal in the mixed team event featuring Park Jeong-yoon (Changwon City Hall) and Choi Yong-hee (Hyundai Steel). India, the "compound powerhouse," topped both events.

Jeong Ui-seon (Chairman) said, "In fact, India is a very strong team globally in the compound discipline." He added, "We are working hard to catch up, but I felt that we need to train better using more excellent methods. I realized that there is a lot of work the association needs to do going forward."

Following this, Jeong (Chairman) stated, "Whether it is gold, silver, or bronze, participating in the Asian Games itself is a great honor and something that will help their future, so we will continue to support them." He added, "Recurve is still remaining. I watched at lunch today, and everyone seems to be in good condition. It seems they just need to beat themselves and win well."
