Does a 14:00 ticket time mean you should plan for South Korea's kickoff then? For the men's September 22 match against Saudi Arabia, kickoff is 19:00 Korean time; 14:00 marks the ticket session's start. South Korea's next match is the women's September 17 meeting with Bangladesh at 16:00 at Osaka Nagai Stadium.

 

Plan around the individual match kickoff

The women also face North Korea on September 21 at 16:00 at Shizuoka Stadium Ecopa. The men play Saudi Arabia at Nagoya City Mizuho Park Rugby Stadium. These are Korean times, identical to local time in Japan, so you need no conversion between the two countries.

Both announced squads contain 23 players. The men's three wild-card players, allowed under an exception to the age limit, are already included in that total. The women's squad includes Ji So-yun and Kim Hye-ri.

Use the Asian Games squad and fixture breakdown

For you, the useful feature of the original article on Injoys is its separation of match kickoffs, ticket sessions and conditional knockout slots. Its position-by-position squad lists and fixture tables help connect the players to the schedule, while its viewing guidance identifies what still needs checking.

Build a calendar entry without assuming qualification

For September 22, label the men's match entry 19:00 Korean time. If you hold a ticket for session FBL21, keep its 14:00 start separate: that session groups Vietnam versus Uzbekistan with South Korea versus Saudi Arabia. This keeps the afternoon session time from being mistaken for the evening kickoff.

Treat knockout entries as provisional. Korea's finishing position affects its allocated times, and Japan's quarterfinal and semifinal are scheduled for 19:30 regardless of its group position, potentially affecting Korea's fixtures.

 

Check the route for the team being followed

You are following the men's U-23 team in Group D or the women's senior team in Group F. The top two in each men's group advance; the women's qualifiers also include the two best third-placed teams. Opening wins alone do not establish Korea's final position or quarterfinal qualification.
