Team Overview

General
The women's basketball team of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea are making their fourth Asian Games appearance in Hangzhou. DPR Korea took part in the first Asian Games to feature women's basketball in 1974, and appeared again in 1982 and 1990, but have not featured at the Games since then.

DPR Korea have appeared at several editions of the Asia Cup in recent years, most recently in 2017 in India where they progressed to the quarterfinals despite losing all three of their group matches. An 81-48 defeat to Australia in the last eight was followed by losses to New Zealand and the Philippines in the classification rounds, and DPR Korea finished the tournament ranked eighth out of the eight teams that took part
