Three-time host Japan tops the games with 27 gold, 21 silver and 26 bronze medals, while South Korea was a distant second place on 16-18-16. With the PyeongChang Winter Olympics less than a year away, and taking place right next door in South Korea, China is vowing to bounce back and eventually shine when Beijing hosts the Winter Olympics in 2022.
The 8th Asiad was the largest-ever of its kind, attracting around 1,500 participants from 30 countries and regions.
