Korea got 4 wins out of 7.
All Chinese players are world champion in 2013 and Guli 9Dan is with them. It looks like they are too strong for Korea to compete. And It seems that China has much confidence in team tournament, so they changed from 5 to 5 matches to 7 to 7 matches.
Therefore, Korea selected 3 players by having preliminary league and 4 players got seed and attend this Chosang Cup. According to the current rank in Korea, Park JungHwan, Kim JiSuk, Lee SeDol and Choi ChelHan 9Dan got seed and Lee JiHun, Na Hun and Byun Sangil are selected to compete against China dream team.
Three players seemed less famous than other like Jo HanSeong, Lee ChangHo etc, but they got through the severe preliminary league in Korea and got selected.
In the 1 Round, Korea got 4 wins and got the first round in the end. Lee SeDol, Park JungHwan, Na Hun and Byun Sangil won each against Mi Yuting, Juo Luiyang, Chen Yaoye and Guli.
From China, Shi Wei, Pan TingYu, Tang Weixing won each against Choi ChelHan, Kim JiSuk and Lee JiHun.
