Archery, with 10 gold medals at the Hangzhou Asian Games, is a sport that is expected to provide a great boost to Korea's competition for second place in the medal rankings at the end of the Games.

Korea failed to win a prize at the 2018 Jakarta Games, when this event was first introduced, and the country that won at that time was Korea's opponent in the final that day, Japan.

There was one more silver medal in archery.

Joo Jae-hoon (Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power) and So Chae-won (Hyundai Mobis) lost 158-159 to India's Oyas Praveen Deotale and Jyoti Surekha Bennam in the final of the compound mixed team event.
