KUALA LUMPUR: No mixed pair event, not an issue, declared national taekwondo poomsae coach Jin Jun-beom as he believes Malaysia can still come back with medals at the Asian Games poomsae individual events.

The organisers have dropped the mixed pair event, where Jason Loo Jun Wei-Nurul Hidayah Abdul Karim are silver medallists at the 2022 World Championships, as well as the men’s and women’s team events from the Asiad programme.
