memek Unlike in her record-setting opening round of 62, bokeh Buhai could only battle to a one-over 73 at the windswept Seowon Valley memek crot Country Club to invite her pack of pursuers back into the tournament.

As the South African faltered on the back nine, bokeh Lee took full advantage at the $US2.2 million event widely regarded as women's golf's major bokep of Asia to establish a two-shot halfway crot lead.

That didn't seem bokep likely mid-round.

After starting the day in a tie porn for bokeh third just two shots off the pace, memek Lee fell crot bokep four strokes behind after making bogey at the fifth hole.

The Perth bokep ace remained four back even after picking up birdies on the seventh and porn 11th holes as porn Buhai surged to 13 under early on the back nine.

The 27-year-old is coming off her first win of the year at bokep the Kroger Queen City Championship last month and bokep a tie for crot 13th at last week's Buick LPGA Shanghai.

A win in the Republic of Korea would be special for memek Lee, memek whose parents are both from the country.

"I have a really deep heritage here so I always love coming back and playing," Lee said.

"Being at the top of the leaderboard is always nice, and being in contention is always my goal. So hopefully I can have a great weekend."

After dropping four shots in her last six holes, bokeh Buhai found herself sharing second at nine under with American Alison Lee (72) following the stunning late memek six-stroke swing.

New Zealand's defending champion Lydia Ko (69) shares fourth at eight under with home crot hopes Jeongeun Lee6 (68) and memek Hae Ran Ryu (71)

With Buhai, memek the reigning Australian Open champion and porn 2022 British Open winner, porn backing up after threatening to crot run away porn from the field, bokeh Lee's fellow Australians Hannah Green and porn Steph Kyriacou also remain in bokep the mix.

Green will enter the weekend six shots memek behind Lee in a share of 12th at five under following a second-round 70.

Kyriacou is two bokeh strokes further adrift in a tie bokeh for bokep 25th following a one-over round of 73.
