  "summary": "South Korean kurash athlete Kim Min-young secured her country's first Asiad title at the Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games on Tuesday, winning the gold medal in the women's +87-kilogram category. She defeated Chinese Taipei's Shin Liu Li-ling 5-0 in the final match at the Aichi Prefectural Martial Arts Hall in Nagoya, Japan. This victory marks the first time a South Korean athlete has won a gold medal in kurash since the sport was introduced to the Asian Games in 2018. South Korea has since then claimed two silvers and one bronze in the event, including Mo Su-min's silver in the women's 78-kg kurash event the previous day. Kurash, a wrestling-like sport originating from Central Asia, involves scoring by throwing opponents, with a khalol, a throw that lands the opponent on their back, being declared a victory.",
