[3rd ChoSang Cup]

Korea team lost first round by 2 to 3 against China team.  

Choi ChelHan 9Dan won against Pan TingWei leading the game from the beginning. And Kim JiSuk 8Dan also won against Chen YaoYe 9Dan.

But Cho HanSeong lost against Thu SaShi, Park JungHwan lost against Tan Shao and Kim SeongJae lost against Jang WeiJie. To win the ChoSang Cup, Korea team should win 4 games in the second round.

This ChoSang Cup is really important for Korea team as they have lost last 2 times. China is confidence in team match against Korea meaning that they have stronger players more than Korea. It has been true half as Korea has won in NongSim Cup (team tournament) several times before. But If Korea lost this time as well, then it is acceptable to say that China is stronger than Korea in team tournaments.

Kim JiSuk and Pan TingWei are captine in the second round. But Kim JiSuk has very low winning rate against Pan TingWei. We expect him to overcome this and
