Lol. He even did the back bending pose which is exactly what Harimoto does.

Chinese B/C men with a poor performance this tournament. Only Liang Lingkun was able to go through the Quali. Not only the young players, also the more experienced like Fang Bo or Yan An lost.

all the strong Chinese women at the top half. what a draw !!!!

Your king we'll have a hard battle with koreans prince youngsik . It will be a great match if youngsik plays his real game ..

And if he wins next round (probably) against Liang Jingkun. I don't think he can do it this time without home advantage.

It says "ZJK pulled out due to a back injury on July 18. The studio thanks the people for their concerns over ZJK's health.

ZJK has been working his butt off since HK Open. This time at Korea Open, however, the draw has been changed 3 times, which has destroyed the fairness of the competition.

They hope the netizens will seek the truth and the studio condemns any fake news."

More on the draw controversy:
http://k.sina.com.cn/article_1490187717_58d275c502000agb6.html?from=sports&subch=osport

On the morning of July 18th, the 2018 ITTF Korea Open men's singles group match was over. According to the new rules of the ITTF, the group stage entered the knockout round without re-lotting, and automatically entered the corresponding position according to the corresponding group and row publicity. . But somehow, the ITTF suddenly decided to conduct a round of draws. The results of the first draw showed that Zhang Jike’s opponent would be Guo Pingpeng’s Liang Jingkun. The result also caused questions from the people concerned, so the draw ceremony was re-run. In the second draw, Zhang Jike, Yan An and Liang Jingkun were all foreign players in the qualifiers of the National Table Tennis Team. However, after coordination and communication, the organizing committee decided the latest match results: Liang Jingkun played against Daga period, and Zhang Jike's opponent was replaced by teammate Yan An.

At 3:24 pm Beijing time, the ITTF also released the results through official Weibo.

Just ten minutes after the start of the game, according to news from Chinese sports reporters, Zhang Jike retired from the Korean Open due to a recurrence of a waist injury.

So he pulled out of the tournament because of the controversial draw? Sometimes the draw is really strange I have to say. On the women's side almost all big chinese names are placed in the upper half of the draw.

Its nice of u zeio . Thnks . Its strange that they changed it 3 times .....

It is almost certain ZJK retired due to draw. Almost all qualifiers had to play one prelim knockout but ZJK was scheduled to play two. This is ridiculous.
