Busan World Table Tennis Sighs Over ‘Table Tennis Gate’… Players say, ‘We are One Team’

Men’s national team wins 3-1 over Poland in opening match of tournament

The staff of the BNK Busan Bank 2024 Busan World Table Tennis Championships Organizing Committee have one thing to worry about.

This is none other than the so-called ‘Table Tennis Gate’ in the soccer world. 파워볼게임

Table Tennis Gate is an incident in which conflict erupted while some players were playing table tennis on the eve of the semifinal match between the national soccer team and Jordan at the 2023 Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Qatar Asian Cup, leading to physical conflict.

The Busan World Table Tennis Championships organizing committee has put a lot of effort into promoting this tournament as it is the first world championship to be held in a home during the 100th anniversary of Korean table tennis.

However, after the table tennis scandal broke out, when you search for ‘table tennis’ on an internet portal site, only the names of soccer players such as Son Heung-min (Tottenham) and Lee Kang-in (Paris Saint-Germain) and coach Jurgen Klinsmann come up.

This is the case even after the Busan World Table Tennis Championships opened on the 16th.

The organizing committee’s public relations officer sighed heavily, saying, “This is a really difficult situation.

There is no way to do anything”

However, if the table tennis national team shows a good performance in the competition, sports fans’ interest will gradually shift to ‘real table tennis.’
