Yoo Changhyuk 9-dan is one of Korea's top players, and probably about third in world.

Yu was born on 25 April 1966 and is South Korean. It is said that he is mainly self-taught and never had a proper master (like Yi or Cho). He became a 1-dan professional in 1984, was promoted to 9-dan in 1996, and has won numerous international titles including the Ing Cup, LG Cup, Chunlan Cup, Samsung Cup, and Fujitsu Cup (twice).

Charles Matthews: He is presently the best thickness and attacking player. His style is to play for influence, his strength in the conversion of attacking positions into advantage in the endgame.
