It's been quite a while since Lee Changho had won a world title. His
last title may have been the Zhonghuan Cup in 2007.

This year he had a chance to grab a world title three times, landing
in the finals of the Ing Cup, Chunlan Cup and Fujitsu Cup. But he
could only finish as the runner-up in all of them.

In this year's Samsung Cup, he is now the only Korean that has reached
the semis. He'll be playing against Qiu Jun of China. The other slot
for the finals will be contested by Kong Jie and Gu Li. The matches
will be held from Nov. 2 to 5 in a best-of-three series.

Will the jinx be broken soon?
