South Korean player Hyun Jing-wha can be called one of the most outstanding female table tennis athletes in the foreign association. She was born in 1969 and can be said to be the pride of Korean table tennis in recent decades. Hyun Jinghe has won the women's team, women's singles, women's doubles and mixed doubles championships at the World Table Tennis Championships, and is also one of the first table tennis Olympic gold medalists in history (women's doubles with Liang Yingzi). Her achievements are beyond the reach of today's younger generation of players such as Ito. After retiring, Hyun Jinghe once coached the Korean women's team and fought with the national table tennis for many years. Despite her advanced age, she continues to contribute to the development of Korean table tennis by mentoring young players such as Seo Hyo-won and others behind the scenes. Xuan Jinghe has a wide influence in the table tennis world and is highly respected by the younger generations.
Kim Taek-so is a table tennis legend, and his straight-shot style poses a great threat to the Chinese team. Kim Taek-so, who was born in 1970, has defeated the main players of the Chinese team many times, including Liu Guoliang, Kong Linghui and others. He has won the men's team and men's doubles gold medals in the World Cup, and is known as "the world's first continuous shooting". Unfortunately, Kim Taek-so has never won a singles world championship in his career, so he is known as the "uncrowned king" of table tennis by fans. After retiring, Kim Taek-so served as the coach of the Korean men's team for a long time, and led the team to compete for medals in the Olympic Games and other competitions many times. At present, he has left his post and moved to a leadership position in the Table Tennis Association. Despite the competitive relationship with the national table tennis, Kim Taek-so maintained a very good friendship with Liu Guoliang, Ma Lin and others. On and off the pitch, they are rivals and friends.
Yoo Seung-min is a table tennis legend born in 1982, he is Kim Taek-so's **, and he also uses a straight slap style. Although Yoo Seungmin did not threaten the Chinese team as long as Kim Taek-so, he defeated China's Wang Hao at the 2004 Olympics to win the men's singles gold medal. After retiring, Yoo Seungmin was gradually promoted to the chairman of the Korean Table Tennis Association and became the general leader of the Korean table tennis industry. He has been committed to promoting the development of table tennis in South Korea and bringing new vitality to the Korean table tennis scene. Although the 2020 World Table Tennis Championships in Busan was postponed and suspended due to the epidemic, Yoo Seungmin won South Korea the opportunity to host the World Table Tennis Championships again in four years. This is also the first time in history that the World Table Tennis Championships have settled in South Korea. As the tournament approaches, fans are looking forward to seeing if the host country's players can replicate the brilliant results of their predecessors.
