Kim Taek-soo

Racket Sports

Kim Taek-soo is a former table tennis player from South Korea, born on 25 May 1970. He played in a one-sided penhold style, which contrasts with the reverse-backhand looping that has become the standard among Chinese penhold players. In 2010 it was announced that he would succeed Yoo Nam-kyu as head coach of the South Korean national table tennis team, although the date of the change was not given. In 2000 he married the archer Kim Jo-sun. His entry in the encyclopedia is short, and it points to the Olympedia and Olympics.com profiles for his Olympic record.
