'Zeka' Kim Geon-woo will start in the 'League of Legends' group stage match against Hong Kong at the 2026 Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games.

The South Korean national team will face Hong Kong in their final Group B match on the 30th at 2:00 p.m. 'Zeka', who played in the opening match against Taiwan, will return to the starting lineup following 'Faker' Lee Sang-hyeok, who started against India.

In the first match, South Korea defeated Taiwan behind 'Zeka' on Akali and 'Canyon' Kim Geon-bu on Vi. Although they gave up consecutive Dragons to their opponent, they won key teamfights to widen the gold lead. After securing Baron, they kept up the pressure to take their first victory in 26 minutes.

In the match against India, where 'Faker' played Cassiopeia, they finished the game even faster. Taking control right from the laning phase, South Korea claimed every Dragon and won a decisive victory in the Rift Herald fight to stretch the gold lead over 10,000. They destroyed the Nexus in under 19 minutes, securing their second straight win.

Against Hong Kong, South Korea will aim for an undefeated 3-0 group stage record and first place in Group B.
