PARIS (dpa): The South Korean men's archery team continued their Olympic dominance with gold at the Paris Games on Monday.
The trio of Kim Je Deok, Kim Woo Jin and Lee Woo Seok defeated hosts France 5-1.
Bronze went to Turkey, who beat China 6-2 earlier.
The South Korean men's team have six Olympic golds overall and the medal at Paris was their third consecutive gold after successes in Rio 2016 and Tokyo 2020.
The nation's women's team also claimed gold in Paris on Sunday, their 10th straight Olympic win, which equalled the longest active win streak for a nation in an event at the summer Olympics.
South Korea are unbeaten in the women's team event, which made its debut at the Seoul home Games in 1988.
The 10 team golds in a row matched the US men's 4x100m medley swim team, the Olympic news service said. The swimmers can move one ahead again on 11 in the Paris Games' final on Sunday. - dpa
