Baduk an ancient Chinese board game (called GO in Europe and America, Baduk in Korea, Wei-chi or Weiqi in China) is shown on KBS1 S.Korean TV channel...it doesn't really matter if you don't know the Korean language, all you need to know is the game.

Anybody know where i can watch this online? I would really love to watch more 9 dan players.

@bauisakim If you have access to South Korean TV - KBS1 then you can. That was where I captured this video clip from. Good luck!

@bauisakim There are tons of references online, try Goggling...If all fails, take a trip down to your local pub and have a few pints.

is this more interesting to watch than football or is it just me?

[djgukfan]

@Salocin27 Haha! Nope, I am with you. This world football competition is very poor and boring!

[JerryKitich]

[BlackSN8K]

And this game is much much more boring than chess.

I know the rules to this game. I still don't know 90% of the time why they are putting their stones in the places that they do. It like a mile off from where the action is and commentator saying "whooo perfect move" 0.o

[Liam126122]

I agree

[polychronio]

@greenghost2008 this game is much much more complicated than chess(which also come from east asia)...

Awesome game, but it can be very addictive and be deleterious to individuals health if overplayed
