Usaengsun’ is an abbreviation for the movie ‘The Best Moment of Our Lives’,
which was based on the women’s handball final at the 2004 Athens Olympics,
and is a representative modifier for women’s handball.
At that time, Korea won the silver medal against Denmark after a close match that included a second overtime and a throw-away match.

Shin Eun-ju said, “A difficult game is expected because the strength of the European teams has been leveled upward” and pledged,
“I will prepare as best I can for the remaining period with strong will and good teamwork.”
He expressed his determination, saying, “I will stick to my senior role as I can only play a good game if my seniors guide me well” and added,
“I want to play a game with no regrets, with the primary goal of advancing to the quarterfinals.”
Hyewon Lee (Busan Facilities Corporation), born in 2004, is the youngest member of the national team.
He has experience as a winning member of Korea at the 2022 Under-18 World Championships held in North Macedonia.
Lee Hye-won, who defeated European powerhouses at the time and won the championship said,
“I am grateful for the opportunity to represent my country at such a young age.
I do not think about my age on the court, but focus on what I can do and contribute to the team.”
