Ha Jung-eun ( Korean 하정은 ; born April 26, 1987 in Busan ) is a badminton player from South Korea .

Athletic career

Ha Jung-eun won the Norwegian International and Canada Open in women's doubles in 2003 . At the Asian Junior Championship in 2005, she won mixed gold with Lee Yong-dae . In 2007 she was successful again at the Asian Junior Championships. Two years later, she took second place in the prestigious All England . In the Uber Cup 2010 she was world champion with the South Korean team. At the 2012 Olympic Games , she and her partner Kim Min-jung were disqualified from the Games by the World Federation for match-fixing. In the last group game, the two clearly did not show the will to want to win the game, as they would have met supposedly weaker opponents if they were defeated in the subsequent knockout round.
