The draw (updated 20th December 2011) as released thorugh BWF website : http://www.bwfbadminton.org/file_download.aspx?id=41087
There's big points for LD to defend so i think LD wont let CL or CJ....in the final....
Can anyone predict if this would be a replica of either the Hongkong or China 2011 SS tournaments. I am sick and tired of watching Team China dominate the finals. I hope the Koreans defend their turf very well this time around including the other seeded players to help make BWF SS and SSP tournaments not as boring as it used to late in 2011.
.Draw analysis for Ina :
XD : Bad draw for Rijal/Debby & Nova/Vita but Ahmad/Lily should be go to SF
WD : Bad draw for Anneke/Nitya, Vita/Nadya......Anneke/Nitya should be sent to GP or GPG more often
WS : Q Barring any upsets Firda and Linda should progress to md
MS : Simon has to face Taufik as early as 2nd rd, Taufik has lots pts to defend here so.......
MD : Bad draw for Kido/Hendra or Chai/Guo ??Bona/Ahsan should face Ko/Yoo again in QF, good draw for Rian/Angga though
.Remember that the Super Series now has a corps of international line judges as well. That said, there will be so many matches on Thursday involving Koreans and there aren't enough imports to call every line in every match. Last year, the biggest complaints came from Sung Ji Hyun and I believe the one judge who caused her the most grief was Korean, though I don't remember exactly.
She complained because they didn't help her enough as she expected maybe...Remember that the Super Series now has a corps of international line judges as well.

This article, out today, quotes Sung Han Kook as saying Jung/Lee are still being counted on to reach the final, even though Jung's shoulder is not 100%.There's a speculation that JJS/LYD will withdraw because of JJS's shoulder injury. Hope anyone especially Korean BCers will shed some light on this matter. No fun if these duo won't compete.
