The 8th, the second day of the opening ceremony of the 2025 Harbin Asian Winter Games, will not only be the "golden day" of the Chinese army, but also the "golden day" of the South Korean army. The "world's strongest" Korean short track speed skating team is at the forefront of the "gold vein", and the Korean team may also win gold medals in speed skating and snow events.

On the 6th, Park Ji-won, Kumquat ri, Choi Min-jeong and other South Korean short track speed skating team players trained in the comprehensive hall of the Heilongjiang Ice Training Center.

Starting at 10 a.m. Beijing time, the Heilongjiang Provincial Ice Training Center Complex in Harbin will compete on the second day of the Asian Winter Games short track speed skating event. The men's and women's 1,500m quarterfinals, men's and women's 500m heats, men's and women's 1,000m heats, and mixed 2,000m relay semifinals were held on the 7th.

Starting from the short track speed skating mixed 2000m relay final, the men's and women's 1500m semifinals and finals, and the men's and women's 500m semifinals and finals will be staged successively. The most likely event for the Korean short track speed skating team to win gold is the men's and women's 1500m. In the women's group, Choi Min-jung and Kumquat Ri, and in the men's group, ace Park Ji-won are strong favorites to win the championship.

Another "filial piety event", speed skating, will start on the same day at the oval court of the Heilongjiang Ice Training Center, starting with the men's and women's 100m and men's and women's 1500m. Known as the "Queen of the Ice", South Korea's signature sprint athlete Kim Min-sun will start the women's 100m.

In the Yabuli area, which is about 200 kilometers away from Harbin, the snow event schedule will kick off. According to South Korean media, whether Lee Seung-hoon, a freestyle skiing men's halfpipe player and South Korean, will carry out "golden acting" has attracted much attention, and the women's group player Jang Youjin and others are also medal stars.

In snowboarding, double Gangwon 2024 Winter Youth Olympic Games champion Lee Chao-eun of South Korea will compete in slopestyle for the first time of the Asian Winter Games. 2023 World Championships snowboard men's halfpipe champion Li Chaoen initially only applied to participate in the men's halfpipe at this year's Asian Winter Games, but added slopestyle before the competition.

The first medal event to be decided on the day is the mixed doubles event in curling, with Korea's Kim Kyung-ae/Sung Ji-hoon in the final or bronze medal battle at 9 a.m., depending on the semi-final results.
