According to Busan, the host of the World Table Tennis Championships, due to the severe local situation, the organizer postponed the draw ceremony of the World Table Tennis Championships, and the specific recovery time will be notified separately according to the control situation. However, during this period, the first team to quit the competition appeared, that is, the North Korean table tennis team, which is known as the "mysterious teacher" in Asia. In fact, as early as a month ago, the North Korean team revealed its willingness to refuse to participate.
However, the reasons at that time were different from those now. Han Ping and ITTF had hoped that the North Korean team would appear in the World Table Tennis Championships, so they gave the green light, saying that they would reserve the places for them until the draw ceremony. At the same time, Han Ping also hopes that they can reproduce the classic scene of "merging into one" with the North Korean team in the World Table Tennis Championships.
Refuse to take part in the competition
Unfortunately, it was once again unilaterally rejected by the other party. Now that the draw ceremony is just around the corner, the North Korean team has reiterated its position that it will no longer participate in the World Table Tennis Championships held in Busan. Unlike Han Ping, the North Korean team is called the mysterious teacher because it basically does not participate in major events organized by ITTF, but its strength can even compete with Guo Ping.
In the past, sports meetings were an eye-opener. Senior coach Wang Tao led Fan Zhendong, Mu Zi and others to play. As a result, in the face of the mysterious teacher's repeated defeats, the mixed double fairy swam into a car and even reached the final all the way. Although Fan Zhendong/Mu Zi won the championship, the process was not easy at all. After the game, Fan Zhendong said that he played every ball very hard and was very cautious.
