Lim Jong-hoon (28, Korea Exchange) and Shin Yoo-bin (21, copyright) smiled broadly after winning their first medal together at the World Table Tennis Championships.

The two lost to Wang Chuqin-Sun Yingxia (China, world No. 8) in the semifinals of the mixed doubles at Lusail Sports Arena in Doha, Qatar, on the 23rd (Korea time) and confirmed the bronze medal. The two accepted the bronze medal at the awards ceremony held shortly after the final match between Wang Chuqin-Sun Yingxia and Yoshimura Maharu-Odo Satsuki (Japan, 21st).

Wang Chu-chin and Sun Ying-sa won the gold medal, and Yoshimura Maharu-Odo Satsuki won the silver medal. The World Championship doubles awarded bronze medals to both teams that were eliminated from the semifinals without the third-place match, and Wong Chun-ting and Du Hoicem (Hong Kong, 3rd place) also received bronze medals on the same day. 온라인바카라

Lim Jong-hoon and Shin Yoo-bin, who won silver medals in men's and women's doubles with different partners (Jang Woo-jin and Jeon Ji-hee) at the Durban Games in South Africa two years ago, joined forces for the first time at the World Championships.

They bowed their heads in disappointment when they lost to Wang Chuqin and Sun Ying-sha. The two players, who tied for bronze in mixed doubles at last year's 2024 Paris Olympics, received medals and bouquets on the podium and organized each other's medal strings, drawing attention.

It only rebounded from the appearance or movements of Chinese fans, who occupied most of the stands, and at this moment, they cheered loudly for the friendly appearance of the Korean players. Eight players later took selfies on the podium, and Lim Jong-hoon was applauded for his sense of bending down when he was not seen behind him.

Meanwhile, after the awards ceremony, Shin Yu-bin was paired with Yuhan (Posco International) and immediately entered the women's doubles semifinals.
