The unified Korean women's basketball team has reached the finals at the 2018 Asian Games in Indonesia, securing at least a silver medal. 

The joint team led by coach Lee Moon-kyu defeated Taiwan 89 to 66 in the semifinals held at the Gelora Bung Karno Sports Complex on Thursday.

Inter-Korean teams competing in the Asian Games have so far won three medals, all in canoeing, including a gold in men's 500-meter dragon boat racing. Two bronze medals came from the same event in the men's one-thousand-meter and women's 200-meter races.

The fourth medal, either gold or silver, will come from women's basketball.

Korea will face the winner of the China-Japan match in the final round on Saturday.
