Hosts South Korea continued their dominance in the fencing competition of the Asian Games as they won two gold and one silver medals on Sunday.

Defending champion Gu Bongil beat Kim Junghwan 15-13 to win the men's sabre individual. The pair won the sabre team event at the 2012 London Olympic Games.

Jeon Heesook defeated China's Le Huilin 15-6 in the final of the women's foil individual earlier on Sunday. The Koreans won all the four gold and three silver fencing medals so far.

South Korea pitched up a team full of Olympic medallists at the Incheon Asiad. They won the seven out of 12 gold medals in fencing at the Guangzhou Asiad four years ago in China. Endit
