[서울=뉴시스] Reporter Park Dae-ro = Korean badminton team players such as Ahn Se-young will compete in the China Open. The event, which will be held near Hangzhou, the host of the Asian Games, is expected to be a rehearsal for the gold medal hunt.

The Korean badminton team left for China on the 3rd to participate in the 2023 China Open Badminton Championships (total prize money of 2 million dollars) held in Changzhou, China.

Ahn Se-young and Kim Ga-eun will compete in the women’s singles. In the men’s doubles, Choi Sol-gyu and Kim Won-ho, Seo Seung-jae and Kang Min-hyuk, and Na Seong-seung and Jin Yong will compete.

In the women’s doubles, Kim So-young – Gong Hee-yong, Kim Hye-jeong – Jung Na-eun, Lee So-hee – Baek Ha-na, and Shin Seung-chan – Lee Yu-rim will participate. In the mixed doubles, Seo Seung-jae and Chae Yoo-jeong and Kim Won-ho and Jeong Na-eun will compete.

In the previous tournament, 2019, Korea did not win the championship. At that time, the women’s doubles pair Jang Ye-na and Kim Hye-rin ranked third, and the mixed doubles pair Seo Seung-jae and Chae Yoo-jeong ranked third. From 2020 to last year, the competition was not held due to Corona 19.

This competition is expected to be a rehearsal for the Hangzhou Asian Games. Changzhou, the site of the competition, is a city in the north of Hangzhou and has a similar climate. This tournament is expected to help the Korean national team prepare for the Asian Games.

The atmosphere is good. The badminton team achieved the best performance ever at the 2023 World Individual Badminton Championships last month. South Korea won gold medals in women’s singles, mixed doubles, and men’s doubles, and added a bronze medal in women’s doubles.

Ahn Se-young, the star of badminton, became the first Korean player to win the world championship in men’s and women’s singles. Seo Seung-jae and Chae Yoo-jung won the mixed doubles championship 20 years after Kim Dong-moon and Ra Gyeong-min in 2003. The men’s doubles pair Seo Seung-jae and Kang Min-hyuk won the gold medal nine years after Ko Seong-hyeon and Shin Baek-cheol in 2014. The three gold medals at the World Championships were the most ever recorded. Previous best results were two event titles achieved in 1985, 1991 and 1999.

Now, the eyes turn to the Asian Games. In the 2018 Jakarta/Palembang Games, Korea suffered a no-medal humiliation for the first time in 40 years since the 1978 Bangkok Games. Korea, which has the world’s top rankers, will seek revenge at the Hangzhou Games. The record for the most gold medals Korean badminton has set at the Asian Games is four at the time of the 1994 Hiroshima Games and the 2002 Busan Games.

The China Open final will be held on the 10th. After the China Open, the national team will return to Korea on the 11th and begin their final preparation for the Asian Games at the Jincheon National Training Center.
