On the other hand, Baek/Lee themselves went through the first round of the tournament without the need to sweat. The couple went straight to the second half because they got an empty draw.
Clashes with Baek/Lee will be a tough challenge for Apri/Fadia. On paper, the South Korean representative has a 5-1 win-loss record advantage against Apri/Fadia.
"The next day we fought Lee So-hee/Baek Ha-na, the host's mainstay. We have met them several times and won. That experience will be our capital," said Apri.
The only Apri/Fadia victory over the seventh seeded pair took place in the round of 16 of the BWF World Championships in 2023.
This is Apri/Fadia's second tournament after being reunited by PBSI in early August 2025. They previously played together in Hong Kong 2025 earlier this month and immediately lost in the first half.
