The true story of South Korean Go grandmaster Cho Hun-hyun [Lee Byung-hun] who managed to break the hegemony of China in the 1960s and initially only finds a formidable competitor in Nam Gi-Cheol [Jo Woo-jin] in the 1980s. That changes when Cho clashes with 6-year-old Lee Chang-ho [Kim Kang-hoon], whom he subjects to a number of tests before taking on the “prodigy” as a pupil. Eventually, mentor and pupil face each other in a number of matches that have acquired legendary status among the fans. Just like with films about chess, for example, it helps if you know the basic rules, but it is not necessary. Especially recommended for people who are at least familiar with the prehistory of 'The God Of War' and 'Stone Buddha'.
