Korean Go World declining?
If you keep track of the Full of Surprises blog, you’ll have already realised the decline in Korea’s Go scene.
The first post related to this topic which amused me was the one called my two teachers, where she talks about how she learnt go and some possible reasons on why children don’t learn it nowadays.
Yesterday she wrote a new post: Only a matter of TIME, talking about the differences on time settings among the main go playing countries. It is a like a punch in my stomach to see how time settings are arranged to suit TV broadcasting. Amazing. Obviously, decreasing the time given for each move has dramatic consequences, but you’d better read them by yourself. I really recommend reading this post as I can’t really transmit all the fustration and pity you can read between her lines.
