Baduk Made Fun And Easy
This is a set of columns being written for the Korea Times, giving an introduction to the game of Baduk. These are available from
The Korea Times Arts & Living page. The articles are linked starting about half-way down this page, and are also listed individually
in a separate section
Because the box to link these articles is small and older links may be lost, the links to all articles are also below:
Intro A: How Baduk went International
Intro B: History Tells Baduk's Passion
Intro C: Korean Stories about Baduk
Lesson 1: Comparing Baduk and Chess
Lesson 2: The Fundamentals (Part 1)
Lesson 3: The Fundamentals (Part 2)
Lesson 4: The Capturing
Lesson 5: Connecting and Cutting
Lesson 6: Efficiency of Moves
Lesson 7: Life and Death (1)
Lesson 8: Life and Death (2)
Lesson 9: Life and Death (3)
Lesson 10: Life and Death (4)
(I am also archiving these locally to avoid what happened with The Magic of Go Yomiuri Shimbun)
Comments
ChiyoDad: Thanks for your initiative on this Malweth. The Korea Times has not created a specific subfolder for these articles so listing them individually (and storing them) is the best current action.
Steve: This column uses unusual names for the unsettled eye shapes introduced in column # 9. Specifically, he uses "Flowery Four" for the farmer's hat, "Flowery Five" for the cross shape, and "Flowery Six" for the rabbity six. To confuse issues, he calls the bulky five the "Rabbity Five".
