Then the combo of Shruti Mishra and Simran Singhi was no match to the world number two pair of Lee Sohee and Shin Seungchan, going down 13-21, 12-21 in 39 minutes only. Thereafter, Aakarshi Kashyap then was sent packing 10-21, 10-21 by world number 19 Kim Ga Eun as India surrendered the tie 0-3.

There was no fight by the Indian team in the next two matches as well as Kim Hye Jeong and Kong Heeyong beat Tanisha Crasto and Treesa Jolly 21-14, 21-11, while Ashmita Chaliha lost 18-21 17-21 to Sim Yujin as Korea completed the 0-5 drubbing of India.
