not many photos but there is this video of his match with Park Wan Ho. There is an old magazine article from 2006 with some photos of him.

There are 3 photos of him from Yeosu, though.

It was reported in the Victor chinese website that there was a selection trial last week for the Korean men and women singles players who were split into two groups in their respective category.

I couldnt figure out the chinese names of the Korean players in the charts below who came out tops in their groupings except Hwang Hye Youn

(surprised she didnt top her group). Perhaps event can provide us with the names? Many thanks.

VICTOR韩国之队2009年单打选手选拔结束朴成奂位列B组第一
7月5日-9日，由韩国羽协主办的2009年VICTOR韩国之队的男单、女单选手选拔赛在泰陵选手村举行。本次比赛选拔了12名男单选手和10名女单选手。
本选拔赛是VICTOR韩国之队世锦赛之前的热身赛。本次比赛设男单和女单两项，每个单项又分A、B两组，一组十人，实行轮赛制。队员的选拔不仅要看队员在小组赛各轮的成绩和表现，还要综合韩国羽协以及韩国竞技力向上委员会的意见。
对已经在韩国羽坛出道10年的朴成奂来说，打国内选拔赛并不是一件容易的事情，然而在这次选拔赛中，朴成奂轻松地以9战全胜的战绩位列B组第一。
另外，CHOI Ho Jin, HWANG Jung Woon, HWANG Jong Soo三位男单选手在选拔赛中表现突出, 他们获得了竞技力向上委员会的首肯成功进入了韩国国家队男单；女单方面，LEE So Yeon凭借着细腻的技术获得韩国国家队女子单打中宝贵的一席。韩国队凭借着此类选拔赛，每年都会获得新鲜血液来保持自身的活力。注重球员的选拔，以及新老更替是VICTOR韩国之队平稳上升的重要因素。
原定于8月1日——8月6日的双打类选拔，因与VICTOR韩国之队出征世锦赛的冲突，暂时推迟。随后，韩国国家羽协将根据韩国国内外的赛事日程另行安排双打选拔。

These are new articles showing the faces of those who just made the cut for the national team in men's singles and women's singles.

**george@chongwei** · 07-15-2009, 01:18 AM

**Ricardo Lopez** · 07-15-2009, 06:21 AM

SUNG.Ji-Hyun,any info and pics?

**event** · 07-15-2009, 06:50 AM

Well, the romanized names in the article you sent...

MS: CHOI Ho Jin, HWANG Jung Woon, HWANG Jong Soo

WS: LEE So Yeon

...are the names of the players who have been newly selected for the national team. Three of those are joining the national team for the first time ever while the fourth, Hwang Jung Woon, has been invited back. They had a round robin competition in two groups. Jang Young Soo and Park Sung Hwan were both undefeated while Hwang lost only to Park and won his other 8 matches. The other men's singles players selected were Lee Cheol Ho, Rah Yeh Wook, Shon Wan Ho, Park Wan Ho, Han Ki Hoon, Hong Ji Hoon, and Kim Sa Rang. Two teenagers - Lee Dong Keun and Park Sung Min - appear to have been dropped from the team and the new high school champion, Choi Young Woo, didn't make the cut, as he won only one match.

In the women's, the players are Hwang Hye Youn, Kim Moon Hi, Bae Seung Hee, Lee Yun Hwa, Lee Hyun Jin, Wi Jin Ah, Kang Hae Won, Jang Soo Young and Sung Ji Hyun, in addition to Lee So Yeon. The big surprise there was the youngest player, 17-year-old Sung Ji Hyun, beating all but one opponent, Jang Soo Young. Sung wasn't even high school champion this summer. She lost to Eom Hye Won in the final.
