The main reason we went was that one of the students at the IBA needed to buy a go board and stones.
To be Honest, I was a little bit disappointed with what I saw. Sure there were professionals, and Yonguseng (Korean Insei) but the place seemed a little empty. I guess I was expecting a bunch fanatics studying, but I was later informed that most of the pros i was expecting to see study in small groups around the Hankuk Kiwon. I have not had a chance to visit them, I will ask my friend if she could take me along one day.
I took a few pictures, so take a look.

Also, I will be buying many books in Korea, so that we can sell them at the New York Go Center.
Expect a really good problem series, as well as Jungsuk in Our Time.

Cool! First off, you REALLY don't know who I am? It's me Jesy, makes sense now?
I forgot, my blog is only use for my English class, so I get graded on it.
Looks cold in there, everyone is wearing coats.
very cold place...
Even though it looks cold, the place looks epic nonetheless. The equipment and playing area looks comfortable enough. Again, glad to see a lot of pictures :P I'm sure you're enjoying yourself.
Update!
how do you reach Hanguk Kiwon by subway
