StatusOlympic
LocationChe-yuk-gwan, Seo-ul Dae-hak-gyo, Seoul
Participants64 from 35 countries
FormatRound-robin qualifying pools, followed by single-elimination tournament.

The story of the 1988 men’s singles tournament was the demise of the top five seeds prior to the semi-finals. The favorite was the 1985 and 1987 World Champion, Jiang Jialiang (CHN), but he lost in the quarter-finals. Also defeated in that round were the #2 seed, Jan-Ove Waldner (SWE), and #3 seed, Chen Longcan (CHN). The final came down to two Korean players – Yoo Nam-Kyu and Kim Ki-Taik – which was quite popular with the home crowd. In the final, Yoo, the 1987 Asian Games champion, lost the first game, but then came back to win in four games. The fourth-place finisher, Tibor Klampár (HUN), had been doubles World Champion in 1971.
