National women’s badminton doubles pair Pearly Tan-M Thinaah booked their spot in the 2024 Korea Open finals after beating top seeds Baek Ha-na and Lee So-hee at the Mokpo Indoor Stadium in Seoul, Korea today.

The Malaysians took 42 minutes to beat the home pair 21-18, 21-13 in their semi-final match today.

They will face another South Korean pair, Jeong Na-eun and Kim Hye-jeong in the final tomorrow after they beat their compatriots Lim Yu–lim-Shin Seung-chan 21-14, 21-11 in the other semi-final match.

Fourth-seeded Tan-Thinaah will have a chance to win their first Super 500 title this season after crashing out of the quarter-finals of the Japan Open last week.
