The long-standing discrepancy between shell-model and experimental values of the mirror asymmetry in Gamow-Teller transition rates for $^{ 28}$Al($\beta^-$)$^{ 28m}$Si and $^{ 28}$P($\beta^+$)$^{ 28m}$Si is partially resolved by integrating the $p$-orbital contribution into the radial mismatch correction term. This approach offers a potential estimate of the radial mismatch-induced core-orbital contribution based on the French-Macfarlane sum rules, avoiding the need for heavy calculations required by the first-principle shell model. Additionally, the isospin-mixing contribution undergoes considerable improvement through scaling the calculated isospin-mixing correction with the experimental energy separation between the lowest two admixed states, in accordance with the result from the two-level model.
