Korea have kept changes to a minimum in the build up to Wednesday’s match with Jamaica for the third place in Pool B at the IRB Junior World Rugby Trophy in Santiago, Chile.
They moved Lee Ui Gyu from the bench to the starting line-up at fly half, with incumbent Kim Gwong Min moving to the left wing. The other positional change involves wing Lee Sung Beom, selected at centre, replacing Lee Sae Ho who is dropped to the bench.
Buoyed by their brave performance against Georgia, when their ball retention improved considerably, the Koreans are targeting Jamaica for their first win of the tournament.

All 26 players are fit and ready and coach Moon Young Chan has decided to rest the players, rather than use the final training session, the so-called captain's run, for any solid team work.
Their opponents, Jamaica have also made three changes, with Hubert Thomas replacing Andrew Hylton at scrum half and Smeathan Tapper returning to fly half after recovering from a swollen knee in place of Demetri Barrett. Both Hylton and Barrett drop to the bench, while Sebastian Stewart returns at full back.
"I really hope they will do themselves justice. They are such a talented side and I really hope they will do well, displaying all their skills in tomorrow's match," Jamaica coach Victor Hyde said.
