South Korean badminton team members Kim Won-ho and Jeong Na-eun pose with their silver medals around their necks at the mixed badminton doubles awards ceremony held at La Chapelle Arena in Paris, France on the 2nd (Korean time).

Kim Won-ho (25, Samsung Life) and Jeong Na-eun (24, Hwasun County Office) won a valuable silver medal

in the badminton mixed doubles. On the 2nd (local time), the Kim Won-ho-Jeong Na-eun pair lost 0-2 (8-21 11-21) to the Chinese Zheng Siwei-Huang Yachong pair in the final of the mixed doubles held at La Chapelle Arena in Paris, France.

World No. 8 Kim Won-ho and Jeong Na-eun struggled against China, but the wall of the world No. 1 was high. Korea, which lost the first set 8-21, tried to recover in the second set, but it was not enough to make up for the gap.

It was a disappointing loss, but it was still a valuable silver medal. Korea won its first medal in mixed badminton doubles in 16 years since Lee

Yong-dae and Lee Hyo-jung won gold at the 2008 Beijing Olympics. Meanwhile, the other Taegeuk warriors, Seo Seung-jae and Chae Yu-jeong, who lost to Kim Won-ho and Jeong Na-eun the day before, played the bronze medal match against Japan’s Watanabe Yuta (27) and Higashino Arisa (28), but lost 0-2 and failed to win a medal. 안전놀이터
