In the move 'The Divine Move' based on Baduk, there are 18 records in the movie, and all of them are directed by Seonho Kim 2P.
We've got the 18 records from the movie maker and introduce 7 of them in this article with an interview with Seonho Kim 2P.
[Prologue: in the playing room]
This is a game between the main character, Taeseok and his opponent.
Taeseok tried his style of Baduk with pressing the opponent strongly, but it was maybe too much. He made a big mistake that can't be recovered, so he lost the game by resignation.

Black: Taeseok White: Mr. Lee Sabum
Result: 166 moves. White wins by resignation.
Comments:
W40 is a good asking move. Black choose to exchange by B41 and press by B51~55 not to give the initiative.
B65 is a big misreading about W66, the cutting move. If black played W80 instead of B65, it could be playable. Until W92, black is caught, and the game is good for white.
Black made a pae by B99~111, but it was not enough.
[Prologue: a game of Taeseok's brother]
Taeseok kibitzes his brother's game and the opponent also did that with Salsu. However middle of the serious game, Taeseok couldn't connect to his brother who is away weaker than him, and then they lost the game.
Black: the opponent, White: Brother of Taeseok
Result: 185 moves, Black wins by resignation
Comments:
Black 31 looks strong, but white can handle this. After B51, white arranges the shape by W60~72. After B89, both of them play big points fast.
B115~117 is a good sequence. White is not good with that. W128 is the first mistake; it should have been blocked and fought by W130. After B129 and 131, white is behind.
White makes a chance by W138~144, but W156 is the last mistake. If white played B159, it was favorable for white. By B185, black wins the game.
[Prologue: a game between Taeseok and Salsu]
When Taeseok got caught for kibitzing, Salsu suggested him for a betting game.
Taeseok played the game in confusion seeing his brother got tortured, and he slipped a stone down by a mistake. However, Salsu just took it a move and played his turn. Finally Taeseok lost the game.
Black: Taeseok, White: Salsu
Result: 166 moves. White wins by resignation
Comments:
White plays aggressively by W16~18. It is a complicated game until W58, but it is good for both.
B77, making a pae is the only choice for black. White gets a big territory capturing by W84, but with B85, it is playable for black too.
However, B87 is the mistake. After W88, black has no way to win.
Black tries with B93, but white handles it clearly.
[Game between prison governor and gangster]
The gangster always loses against the prison governor.
This game also looks not good for the gangster, but he could win if he survives the big group. However, he couldn't find it and lost the game.
Black: gangster, White: prison governor
Result: white wins by resignation
Comments:
In the movie, white makes a living shape by W14. Now it is black's time to save its big group. How can it be saved?
B1 is the good move. It looks easy after knowing it, but it is not easy to find. With B1, black can live by 6 or 9. The gangster couldn't find this move.
[1st game between prison governor and Taeseok]
The prison governor has never lost a game in the prison, and he doesn't know about Taeseok's strength.
Taeseok plays the game easily making the game win by a few points. The prison governor thinks that he lost the game by mistake and asks Taeseok for another game.
Black: Taeseok, White: prison governor
Result: Black wins by 2 points
Comments:
There are many exchanges with lots of fights. It can be really fun to read for all. So we didn't put the comments about the game to give a space to enjoy fun reading.
[2nd game between prison governor and Taeseok]
The prison governor did his best, but Taeseok easily won against him. Now the prison governor knows how strong Taeseok is.
Black: prison governor, White: Taeseok
Result: 190 moves, white wins by resignation
Comments:
Good for black until B15. W28~64 are professional moves.
B65 is an over play. It should have been just 74. Because of that, the game is good for white.
Black tries an exchange with B105.
B179 is a big mistake. Now there can be a pae in the upper left corner.
This game black lost by his fast style.
[Game between Taeseok and Guisoo in the prison]
Taeseok gets a message from someone. "Do you want to play a game?"
Then he plays a game with someone who he doesn't know by drawing a Baduk board and stones with chalk.
Taeseok tries all he can do, but he loses the game.
Black: Guisoo, White: Taeseok
Result: 169 moves. Black wins by resignation
Comments:
Until B41, it was okay for both of them. W48 is possible but too fast. After that until W106, it is the only way.
Black takes the last big spot by B109, and the game is good for black.
White challenges with 132~136, but it was not enough. Black defends perfectly and wins the game.
This is the first part of the movie. Next is a revenge of Taeseok after coming out of the jail. It will be introduced with the gibes in the next article.
