Comments & Reviews

This is a Hankuk Kiwon publication in English. It has lots of nice pictures of Korean pros, tournaments, and contains some advertisement.

There’s some good history on Sunjang Baduk and how baduk evolved in Korea since then. A lot of the book is about what the KBA does. If want to learn more about, say, the LG or Wangwi tournaments, it’s here.

There are a lot of phone numbers, addresses, maps, and web links associated with Korean baduk. I would definitely take this book with me were I to visit Korea.
