2011 Swiss Open GPG: Korea is happy at the Semi-Finals . Yes, Korea is happy at the Semi-Finals. There are 16 seeded players/pairs out of the 20 remaining; and the other 4 (unseeded) are all from Korea. .
Looks like Korean team DOMINATE this tournament! Look at each match at ts website. From 9/10 matches that will be played today, there will be Korean players in! AMAZING.

The Quarterfinals have started with the match Lee Yong Dae/Ha Jung Eun [8] vs. Joachim Fischer Nielsen/Christinna Pedersen [4]. The Danes are ranked 8th in the world, while the Koreans are unranked as of yet. The pairs have never met in a tournament before. The score atm is LYD/HJE - Fischer Nielsen/Pedersen 4-5 I'm hoping for an Asian win as well
