Cho Nam-chul, Kim Yin, Cho Hyun-hyun, Cho Ji-hoon, Seo Bong-so, Lee Chang-ho, and Lee Sedol were selected as the "national players" (non-national hand-to-hand champions) who led Korean modern Go to the top of the world. Go Magazine, the monthly magazine of the Korean Chess Academy, serialized a special feature for the seven people.

Everything starts with him, everything starts from him
What kind of person is the "national hand"? Or what does the "national hand" mean for our generation?
Dafan "national hand" refers to the artist or "first person" who is at the highest level in a country in the fields of chess, singing skills, musical instruments, martial arts, calligraphy and painting. And the "real national hand" will give people the sadness and joy of the times, and even in a subtle way, it will suddenly give you a mournful and spiritual touch.
In this sense, Zhao Nanzhe is the national hand in the hands of the state, which can be called the "hand of the big country".
Born on November 30, 1923 in Bu'an County, North Jeolla Province, Cho Nam-cheol will know that cho nam-cheol experienced the shackles of modern history such as the Japanese Emperor's invasion and occupation, the 8.15 Restoration, and the Korean War, and silently walked the road of Go in the midst of social upheavals.
During the Korean War, Cho Nam-chol's baggage of fleeing was stuffed with chess pieces, not necessities. Without Cho Nam-cheol, there would be no Korean Go today.
Cho Nam-cheol's turbulent life is a historical portrayal of modern Go in Korea. He lit the lamp of modern Go on the barren land of Korea. In order not to extinguish this fire, he sacrificed his body until the last day of his life.
Through his body, Korean Go gained nourishment, and his blood penetrated the blood of Korean Go. It can be said that everything about Korean modern Go started from him, from him.
The groundbreaking ceremony of the Korean Chess Academy in The Iron Cave
In 1968, the new building of the Korean Chess Academy broke ground in the Accustomed Iron Cave, and Cho Nam-chul finally shed tears in his speech. After Zhao Nanzhe hung the "Seoul Chess Academy" plaque in the South Cave in that year, the subsequent "Central Chess Academy" moved home sixteen times due to financial difficulties, which was the first nest that Zhao Nanzhe built with sweat and tears.
Before moving to Hongik-dong in 1994, the Korean Chess Academy brewed countless novel-like Go stories in the Habitual Iron Cave.
"If Go can get paid, it is the highest"
"Is it here?"
The gentleman asked in his characteristic voice, which was hoarse and slightly vibratory. I was out to meet my husband who had come to record the show. The gentleman was dressed in a light gray formal dress, silver hair with his back to his head, his cheeks sunken deeply, and the wrinkles on his forehead were deeply ploughed. At the age of 72, mr. Body is originally very dry and thin, coupled with silver hair and dry legs, Mr. does not seem to be a person standing on the ground.
The gentleman walked towards the door of the TV station with a slightly dangling figure-eight step, and I looked at his back, and suddenly a realization flashed through my mind: it was clearly a crane. Even in retrospect, it is indeed a crane.
Instead of walking on the ground, the gentleman glided on the surface of the water with his wings outstretched. And the sun in the middle of the sky shone brightly on his silver hair.
It was the late summer of 1995. Behind the huge Daewoo Building at Seoul Station, there is a small 4-story building. In the studio on the basement floor of the building, Go TV, which is preparing to start broadcasting in December, has entered the final stage of commissioning. As the world's first special Go television station, Go TV has attracted the attention of the Go community, but the situation before the launch of Go TV was really bad and unremarkable.
The necessary link before the START of the broadcast of the TV station is the trial broadcast, and only through the trial broadcast can it test its own preparation status. Although it is a pilot broadcast, the production must be broadcast at the designated time, so the tension is no less than the official start.
At that time, the biggest problem facing Go TV was the studio, because the studio in the wooden cave where Go TV was going to move in was still under construction. Because the pilot broadcast was imminent, Hyun Jae-hyun, then chairman of the Korea Chess Academy, asked Kim Woo-jung, president of the Daewoo Group, to borrow the studio of the Daewoo Group Movie Channel (DCN). The condition is that DCN station does not produce programs in between can be borrowed.
I remember that although the conditions were bad, the morale of the film crew was high, and the booths for the pilot show were quite large. Although it is impossible to accurately recall what the title of the pilot program is, it is roughly the meaning of "national hand column biography". That is, starting from Cho Nam-chul, the pioneer of modern Go in Korea, Kim Yin, Ha Chan-seok, Cho Hwan-hyun and other national players were called to the studio one by one to review their lives and even Go. Sir is the first guest on the show.
When the gentleman came to the studio, he immediately sat down in a chair, then took something out of his suit and put it on the table. It turned out to be 3 or 4 pages of A4 paper-sized paper, which was full of words written uprightly, leaving almost no white space.
The gentleman said: "I spent a few days looking for information from the past, and now my memory is completely weak. ”
Mr. Li's words certainly eased the tension at the scene, but the problem was that after the show started filming, large and small accidents broke out one after another, which should be that the film crew business is not very familiar. Even the microphone stuck to the chessboard dropped several times, leaving the film crew's liver and intestines broken.
At this time, the recording could only be interrupted, and the gentleman could only make room to leave the studio and let the film crew take care of the equipment. So off the chain, the 72-year-old even if he gets angry, there is nothing to say.
But the gentleman remained quiet, showing no dissatisfaction at all, silently enduring the unbearable time. The gentleman even comforted the film crew and said, "The first time everyone is the same, huh," "I can just go out and smoke a cigarette." The mood of the film crew was eager to drill into the cracks in the ground.
Even if the chain is dropped, in the end, if the show can be finished, it is still lucky. After an increase of more than four hours in filming, the decisive accident finally broke out at 5 p.m. The shooting equipment was finally stopped due to overload, and it was all white for an afternoon.
The equipment that is stopped can be repaired, the problem is sir. After being tossed around for most of the day, I had to come to the studio the next day to reshoot.
When I took my husband to the taxi point, my back was sweating coldly. The gentleman said, "Won't you come again tomorrow?" and walked out of the studio, and the silence after that weighed heavily on my heart. Soon taxis came by, and I desperately shook my hand to get a ride.
At this time, the gentleman, who had been silent, suddenly asked me: "Do you receive a salary?"
Of course, I have to pay for work, and I feel a little puzzled when I hear it. At this time, the taxi stopped, and I hurried to open the back door for my husband. The gentleman buried himself deep in the back seat and said a phrase that I would never forget in my life: "If Go can be paid, it is the highest." ”
