Cute moment at Ing Cup Finals 8 years ago: during Q&A after the matches, someone asked Choi Cheol-han if he had any marriage plans. He answered, "I'll wait for Lee Changho (who's older) to get married first, before considering it for myself." Known as the Stone Buddha who never showed any expressions, Lee Changho replied, "I haven't considered marriage yet," You could see it in his eyes though, as he started to smile, and then tried to hold it in, before continuing, "but I am currently in love." The room exploded in cheers and laughter. Photo @zemotion #바둑 #围棋 #gogame #goblogstories #baduk #weiqi #igo #囲碁 #leechangho #choicheolhan

Walkway in Ichigaya JR station in Tokyo, the subway stop nearest to Nihon Kiin. There was also a poster that's still congratulating Iyama Yuta on his 7-title accomplishment. Very cool. ❤️ #바둑 #围棋 #gogame #baduk #weiqi #igo #囲碁 #japan #tokyo #ichigaya
