Pacific-Asia Curling Championships
In April 2016, Kim Eun-jung claimed her third national championship by beating a high school curling team skipped by Kim Min-ji in the final. At the 2016 Pacific-Asia Curling Championships, her South Korean team went through the round robin with a 6–1 record and once again won the semifinal over New Zealand. Then in the final, she defeated China's Wang Bingyu to capture her first Asia-Pacific title. This qualified her South Korean team for the 2017 World Women's Curling Championship, her first World Championship. They finished the round robin with a 5–6 record, failing to advance to the playoff round.
