PETALING JAYA: World No. 1 Lee Chong Wei should have no problems getting off to a flying start in 2014 as he has been given a relatively easy draw for the Korean Open from Jan 7-12 in Seoul.

The 31-year-old who bagged seven Super Series titles this year, including the season ending Super Series Finals title, will start off against South Korean Son Wan-ho in the first round.
