Gideon/Sukamuyo (Indonesia) 0-2 Kim Min-hyuk/Su Seung-jae (South Korea)
Gideon/Sukamuyo is currently ranked first in the world. They have dominated the world's first for 191 consecutive weeks, and have also set a record in the history of men's doubles. They have been at the top level of men's doubles for many years. Although Gideon recovered from his injury this year, they still reached the semi-finals of the All England Championship and Indonesian Masters, which shows that their strength is still very strong. Kim Min-hyuk/Seo Seung-jae is the new combination of South Korea this year. They are good at strength, but there is still a certain gap with the top men's doubles combination. Before the game, we were unanimously optimistic about the world's No. 1 Gideon/Sukamuyo combination.
However, the game is completely different from what everyone predicts. The Korean combination played very fiercely. Through the suppression of the backcourt offense, the line blocked in front of the net was also perfectly blocked, gaining an absolute advantage, defeating the opponent 21-14 and 21-12, and advancing to the quarterfinals in a flash.
