Wang Chu-chin, who is ranked No. 1 in the world, is the strongest man who no one doubted winning this tournament. The panicked Wang Chu-chin's misdeeds continued and he self-destructed.
Oh Jun-sung turned North Korea's inclusion, which was also a opponent in the round of 16, to 3-1 (11-4, 12-10, 8-11, 11-9) and became the biggest surprise of the tournament with a brilliant performance in the quarterfinals.

Oh Jun-sung's opponent in the semifinals is "Japan's ace" Tomokazu Harimoto. Harimoto, who is ranked ninth in the world, is as strong as Wang Chu-chin, who is a fierce opponent of fast attacks. Oh Jun-sung faced off in the round of 16 of the WTT Champions held in Incheon this year and lost after a close game of full games. But sports are momentum. Fans are paying keen attention to whether Oh Jun-sung, who caught Wang Chu-chin, will be able to cause another accident. The semifinals and finals of the men's singles will be held on the 13th, the last day of the competition.
