Cho HanSeong 9Dan led the game smoothly from the beginning and when Lee DongHun tried to get over the game, Cho HanSeong 9Dan countered for it severely.
Cho HanSeong 9Dan won against Lee Donghun 1Dan by resign with black in the round 8 of the 18th GS Caltex Cup on 28th.
It was first game for both players. Cho HanSeong said about Lee DongHun 1Dan that he improved a lot last year, but he could not show it today. Cho HanSeong 9Dan said I am expecting to have games against hot players Shin JinSeo, Shin MinJun and Byen Sangil etc.
Cho 9Dan said in the interview that there were complicated variations on the right upper corner. I thought I had better positions, but it was not. I think I got better when I caught three stones on the left side. After that Lee DongHun had mistake and I could finish the game as I counted it well.
Cho HanSeong said the semi-final game that I know Kim JiSuk 8Dan is very strong and have very good condition recently. Only one thing he is weak now is his optimism even the game is very closed. But it is my weak point as well, anyway it will be very interesting.
