[스포츠서울 | 김경무 전문기자] Kim Min-seon (17, Wonju Chiak High School sophomore), the younger brother of the ‘shuttlecock twin prodigies’, is attracting attention as he is doing well by defeating his seniors one after another in the adult national team selection competition.
Kim Min-seon is in second place in the group with 4 wins and 1 loss as of the 24th in the women’s singles Group A full league for the 2024 Badminton National Team Selection Tournament, which has been held at the Citizen’s Gymnasium in Seosan, South Chungcheong Province since the 21st.
Shim Yu-jin (24, Incheon International Airport), ranked 36th in the world and the leading player in winning the 2023 Uber Cup (World Women’s Team Badminton Championship) held in Bangkok, Thailand in May last year, is first in the group with 6 wins.
Kim Min-seon only lost to Shim Yu-jin with a game (set) score of 0-2, but defeated four players, including Lee So-yul (21, Samsung Life Insurance), 2-0 each.

In the women’s singles, world number one Ahn Se-young (21, Samsung Life Insurance) was automatically selected, and a total of 27 players are competing this time, divided into 3 groups (9 players each) and competing fiercely in the full league.
After the full league, the 6 first and 2nd place players from each group will be selected, and the 3rd place players from each group will compete in the league and one additional person will be selected.
In the case of men’s and women’s singles, if you are in the top 16 in the world rankings, you can wear the Taegeuk symbol without having to participate in the national team selection match, and as of the time of the selection match announcement, Ahn Se-young is the only one who falls into this category.
Kim Min-seon’s older sister, Kim Min-ji (17, Wonju Chiak High School sophomore), recorded 1 win and 1 loss in Group C, but withdrew due to a worsening left knee injury. In Group C, Park Ga-eun (22, Gimcheon City Hall) is in first place with 4 wins, and current national team member Kim Garam (21, Cheong Kwan-jang) is in second place with 4 wins and 1 loss.

In Group B, Kim Ga-eun (25, Samsung Life Insurance), ranked 12th in the world, is struggling despite an ankle injury and is in second place in the group with 2 wins and 1 loss. Kim Joo-eun (26, Gimcheon City Hall) is in first place with 4 wins.
Kim Ga-eun also participated in the 2024 Badminton World Federation (BWF) World Tour Women’s Singles (16 world top-ranked players) held in Hangzhou, China from the 13th to the 17th, but her world ranking was not in the top 16 when the national team selection match was announced, so she had a difficult selection match this time. I had to take it.
The selection competition continues until the 27th. [email protected]
