Cunningham, hailed as the future of the sport by two-time GB bronze medallist Bianca Walkden, came through a cagey fight against Cuba's Rafael Alba to win 2-1.
It had been 0-0 in the last round of the best-of-three fight, but Cunningham picked up four points in the final 10 seconds to secure victory.
He will face Cheick Cisse of the Ivory Coast from 15:36 BST for a shot at the gold-medal match.
McGowan, also making her Olympic debut, was outclassed 2-0 by Svetlana Osipova of Uzbekistan in the women's +67kg.
Great Britain have won a taekwondo medal at every Olympics since Athens in 2004, but have struggled in Paris.
Favourite Bradly Sinden had to withdraw injured before his men's -68kg bronze medal match, while two-time gold medallist Jade Jones suffered another early defeat in the women's -57kg.
