South Korea defeated Japan 3-0 in the semifinal of the Uber Cup
on Thursday, while China did not drop a game on the way to beating
Thailand 3-0 for a place in the final.
South Korea's Sung Ji-hyun
and Bae Youn-joo won their singles in straight games but the pair of Kim
Min-jung and Ha Jung-uen dropped a game before beating Japanese Fuji
Mizuki-Kakiwa Reika 21-13, 17-21, 21-14.
China — desperately
looking to win back the title from South Korea — was impressive with
Wang Yihan and Wang Xin facing no problems in winning their singles.
Wang Xiaoli and Yu Yang then combined well to win the doubles in
straight games.
