Well, it'd be pretty hard to beat Nichkhun since you'd be staring at him the whole time if you did, but he and Olympic gold medalist Lee Yong Dae got a chance to duke it out in a friendly game of badminton.
Nichkhun met with athlete Lee Yong Dae at the 2010 Victor Korea Open Super Series, hosted by the Korean Badminton Association.
As a top badminton player in his highschool himself, Nichkhun was delighted to play against Lee Yong Dae. He stated in an interview, "I really admire Lee Yong Dae. I watched his games on television, so I'm very excited to meet him in person. I am looking forward to having a good time with Lee Yong Dae."
The match was held at the Seoul Olympic Park Stadium 2.
Here's a tad bit history on Lee Yong Dae:
-He was born in 1988 and started playing badminton at 8 years old in his elementary school.
-He and his partner, Lee Hyo-jung won the Gold metal in badminton mixed doubles at the 2008 Beijing Summer Olympics, becoming the youngest gold medalists in Olympic badminton history!
-He is the cousin of the Korean-American movie star John Cho (who starred in Harold and Kumar)
