    I just read from KIMDONGMOON's homepage, that kim and ra are seperated as mixed doubles pair for this sudirman cup.... the new pairs are kdm/lee hyo jung, and lee jae jin/ra kyung min.

    A surprising move... but what's the deal here man?????? I WANT TO SEE KIM/RA play again!!!:crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying:

    Are the coaches in their right minds to do this??

    This is probably a way to put less pressure on their shoulders...

    Bad news for fans, but that might be a good choice for Korea... :rolleyes:

    i'm not sure about KDM and lee hyo jun... i think they just put it there for fun. KDM will just partner Ha for MD?

    but lately, i have been impressed by Lee JJ... him partnering the legendary RKM will indeed be deadly!

    i guess it's because they've just officially announced that they're a couple off-court.. (see www.worldbadminton.net) - to prevent mixing up problems (?!?) with their personal / love lives with their professional lives.. hehe

    Lee/Ra just beated Robertson/Emm. So maybe the coaches have enough confidence on Lee, and let Kim have some more rest and concentrate on MD.

    It's spread the powers evenly to win as much as they can. This is expected of a mixed team event.

    mmm Ha TK really needs to be back playing with KDM rather than anyone else (no offence to Yim but Kim is a level above)

    The reason why Korea coach split Kim/Ra probably because they don't have enough stamina to play two matches.

    In the past Ra can play XD and WD for a day. Kim can play XD and MD in a day without a problem. But cause they just come back after 9 month off court, I guess their fitness and endurance are not 100 % yet.

    If the coach play Kim/Ra they can only give one point to Korea. But if Ra play XD and Kim play MD, they can get two point for Korea instead of one point.
