On the 10th, a press conference was held at the Korea Go Association in Seongdong-gu, Seoul, with about 30 reporters in attendance and a question-and-answer session with Shin Jin-seo (9th dan).
They also interacted with fans through questions submitted in advance via social media Q&A events and a live broadcast on YouTube, which received a huge response.
Shin Jin-seo 9-dan said, "It was very painful when I lost at the world championships recently, but I kept on studying despite the difficult times and I am grateful for this honor.
I think that moment has come. With the finals approaching, I sometimes can't sleep because of the pressure and tension, but now I'm starting to enjoy these competitions little by little. I hope to show good performances in the remaining tournaments this year.

"I hope that we will be able to hold a world tournament in Japan in the future," said Shin Jin-seo 9-dan, who played against China's Gu Zihao 9-dan at the 2nd Quzhou Lanke Cup World Go Open on August 21.
He defeated Shin Jin-seo 2-0 to take the championship. In particular, this final was the return match of the last tournament, where Shin Jin-seo 9-dan won one match and then lost two painful matches, but in this tournament, he played perfectly.
Shin Jin-seo (9-dan) joined the Korea Go Association in 2012 and became the youngest player to be ranked number one at the age of 18. He has been ranked number one in Korea for 57 consecutive months.
He is a representative Go player. Along with the news of his victory, he published his first essay, "Go: From Basics to the Best," which became a hot topic.
