PETALING JAYA: Two years on from shuttlers Seo Seung-jae-Chae Yu-jung’s stunning triumph in the World Championships, South Korea are struggling to fill the void left by the duo in the mixed doubles.
Seung-jae had decided to fully focus on the men’s doubles with Kim Won-ho with their partnership yielding great success while Yu-jung announced her retirement from the sport last month.
