Choi Jung's challenge is just beginning

[LG Cup]

Choi Jung 6P who is the first women player got through the preliminary league of LG Cup got into the round 16 in the end.

The round 32 of 21th LG Cup has been held in Korea, and many of Korean top rankers failed to survive including Lee Sedol, Kang Dongyun, Kim Jisuk, Lee Taehyun, Kim Myounghun and An Joyoung.

The last match up was between Choi Jung and Pan Yunle, and not many people expected Choi Jung's win as she was behind in the end game. But at that moment, Pan Yunle played asking move which was a losing move, Choi Jung didn't lose and made good exchange from the asking move and won in the end.

Interview with Choi Jung
It was so dramatic
I was about to lose as I played many strange moves in the lower center. I could win by Pan Yunle's mistake, but I could feel he would make that mistake somehow.

How was the game in a whole?
I had little hope until the end as I made reading mistake in the beginning.

Next opponent is Peng Liyao, how do you feel now?
As he won against Kim Jisuk 9P in the round 32, I hope to revenge directly.
