'World Class Mixed Doubles Group' Shin Yu-bin (Korean Air) and Lim Jong-hoon (Korea Exchange) defeated Germany to advance to the quarterfinals of the Paris Olympics.

Shin Yu-bin and Lim Jong-hoon won the game score 4-0 against the German ace team and Nina Miteldam team in the round of 16 mixed doubles in the first game of the Paris Olympics at South Paris Arena 4 on the 27th.

After a close game of deuce, they came from behind to win 12-10. With two games losing 7-9, Shin Yu-bin and Lim Jong-hoon's eye-to-eye coordination worked, leading the game score 2-0 with four points down and 11-9. In the third game, the German team also dominated the early stage, but Shin-Imjo, who has been working together for more than a year, was strong. Lim Jong-hoon's three-ball attack following Shin Yoo-bin's serve was excellent in a situation where they were losing 9-10. In the 10-10 deuce game, Lim Jong-hoon and Shin Yoo-bin's attacks alternately succeeded, bringing three games to 12-10.



The power of the German team, which lost its momentum in four games, was lost. Lim Jong-hoon and Shin Yu-bin led 4-0, 7-2, 8-4.

After confirming his advance to the quarterfinals with a perfect victory, Shin Yu-bin smiled. In the quarterfinals, they will compete with the winner of Romania-Australia to advance to the semifinals. He will try to win a medal for the first time in 12 years since the men's table tennis team's team silver medal in 2012.
