Kim Ha-yoon was put in a crisis when she tried to catch her at the beginning of the game and received one (foul) from her guidance. However, Ha-yoon Kim tried to attack aggressively, and she succeeded in turning the match to square one. The match between the two players was decided at the end of the match. With both players recording two maps each, Kim Ha-yoon tried to throw her up, but she received the third map as Akiba made a passive play of pulling her body out.
Ha-yoon Kim won the match with the rule that a foul loss is recorded if she receives 3 of her guidance. The moment her third map came out, Kim Ha-yoon was delighted as she made her heart with her hands.
Kim Ha-yoon, who passed the first round bye earlier, advanced to the semifinals by beating Anne Patu Mata Embairo (France) and Marit Kamps (Netherlands) in a bout. In the semifinals, she won by foul against Kaira Sait (Turkiye).
