The Korea Open (Korean: 코리아오픈) is an annual badminton event that is commonly held in Seoul, South Korea. The tournament used to be known as Korea Open Super Series because it became one of the BWF Super Series tournaments beginning with 2007. BWF categorised Korea Open as one of the seven BWF World Tour Super 500 events in the BWF events structure since 2018.[1]
The tournament has been organised since 1991. However, the 1998 tournament was canceled due to the poor economic conditions in the country.[2]
