Park was the lead on Team Kim Mi-yeon which won the Pacific Curling Championships gold medal in 2001, earning the Korean team their first ever appearance at the World Curling Championships.[1] At the 2002 Worlds, the team finished last and without a single win, going 0–9.[2]

Park would only win the Pacific Championship one time, with silver medals in 2000, 2002 and 2003 and bronze medals in 2004 and 2007. Park Ji-hyun would skip the South Korean team in 2007, finishing with a 4–4 round robin record and losing the World Championship berth game to Japan's Moe Meguro.[3]
