Kim trailed Lee by 2.75 seconds at the half-way point, but reached the 1,500ｍ mark in 6:33.54, 4.43 seconds ahead of Lee. The South Korean then cruised to a comfortable victory.
There were more medals won for South Korea in rowing Wednesday.
The men's quadruple sculls team of Kim In-won, Kim Hwi-gwan, Lee Seon-soo and Choi Do-sub won the silver medal behind China. The quadruple sculls became an Asiad medal sport for the first time here.
Lee Hak-beom also claimed the silver in the lightweight men's single sculls, behind Lok Kwan Hoi of Hong Kong. (Yonhap)
