Let's Take a Look at the Portraits and Achievements of An Se Young, the 'Wonder' Child from South Korea who Won Consecutive Indonesia Master and Open 2021!

An Se Young successfully achieved an impressive achievement in Indonesia yesterday (28/11/2021). She became the champion in the Indonesia Open S1000 event and defeated the second seed, Ratchanok Intanon, in straight games 21-17 and 22-20. She also defeated Indonesia's representative, Ruselli Hartawan, in the round of 32.

Not only that, a week earlier, An Se Young also became the champion in the Indonesia Master event by defeating the top seed from Japan, Akane Yamaguchi, 21-17 and 21-19. She avenged her defeat against Akane in the previous match, which was the French Open 2021.

An Se Young herself has earned the nickname of 'wonder kid' because at her young age, she has already managed to defeat her seniors. An Se Young has even been able to defeat her fellow countrywoman, Sung Ji Hyun, since 2019.

She has also managed to improve her world ranking, starting as a non-seeded player and now sitting at the 6th rank in the world in just two years. She has also defeated top players from other countries like Pusarla Sindhu, Akane Yamaguchi, Carolina Marin, and many more.

Thanks to her impressive achievements at such a young age, An Se Young received the Most Promising Player of the Year award from BWF in 2019. She managed to defeat three other competitors from various countries, including Leo Rolly Carnando and Daniel Marthin from Indonesia.

Even at the age of 19, An Se Young has already qualified and made her debut in the world's biggest and most prestigious sports event, the Olympics. She even became the youngest player in the event. Although she lost in the quarterfinals against Chinese player Chen Yu Fei, this achievement is already impressive for her debut in the Olympics.

Due to her impressive and proud achievements for South Korea, she also got the opportunity to grace the pages of Vogue Korea magazine. She did a photoshoot and appeared stylish like a model.

Currently, this athlete born in Gwangju, South Korea, is the number one women's singles player in Korea. Even her ranking is far apart from her fellow countrywoman, Kim Ga Eun.

Her achievements in 2021 have been excellent, earning her enough points to qualify for the 2021 World Tour Finals. She is the only representative from South Korea in the women's singles category who managed to qualify for the event.
