Kang Lee-seul, captain of the South Korean women's national basketball team, scored 21 points in the final against Japan, leading the team to its first gold medal in 12 years.
Even in the closing moments of the game when the lead was narrowed to just 2 points, she calmly sank her free throws to seal the victory.
Having secured her first personal gold medal in her third Asian Games appearance, Kang looked back on the moment of her final free throws, saying, "I wasn't thinking about anything."
Right after the gold medal win, Sports Mug brings you the story of the "iron-nerved" Kang Lee-seul.
