Bae was a doubles bronze medalist for South Korea at the 1987 Summer Universiade in Zagreb and was a member of the silver winning men's team at the 1990 Asian Games in Beijing. [1] He featured in three Davis Cup ties for South Korea, between 1988 and 1990.

His Davis Cup debut came against Indonesia in 1988, where he partnered Yoo Jin-sun to a loss in the doubles. In 1990 he returned for a tie against India and teamed up with Yoo Jin-sun to win the doubles rubber over Zeeshan Ali and Leander Paes, which secured the tie. This gave South Korea a spot in the World Group qualifiers and they came up against Belgium in Brussels, but they were unable to progress, with Bae losing two singles rubbers. [2]
