The South Korean women's national ice hockey team (Korean대한민국 여자 아이스하키 국가대표팀; RRDaehanmingug Yeoja Aiseuhaki Guggadaepyotim) is controlled by the Korea Ice Hockey Association (KIHA). In 2017, the team was promoted to Division I, Group B of the Ice Hockey Women's World Championship after winning the Division II, Group A tournament. As of 2022, the team was ranked 18th in the world.[2]

The South Korean women's national team competed in the 2018 Pyeongchang Winter Olympics after being granted automatic entry as the host country by the International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF).[3] In an effort to boost their competitiveness for the Olympics, the program has recruited several North American players with Korean ancestry.[4] In January 2018, it was announced that a unified Korean team would take part in the games, including players from North Korea.[5] KIHA president Chung Mong-won hired Sarah Murray to coach the team.[6]

A movie about the South Korean women's ice hockey team was released in South Korea in August 2016.[7]
