Learn from Korea's professional and pro-level players
For two decades the top of world Go has spoken Korean. Korea's professional system, built on the dojang, is a fighting culture: deep reading, sharp tactics, and a refusal to be pushed around on the board. Learning from that lineage means absorbing how those players think, not just copying their results.
Every teacher on this page plays at professional level. Some hold professional certification (rank 1p–9p); others are high-dan amateurs strong enough to trade games with pros. Each profile shows the exact rank, so you always know who you are booking.
Through live translation, their language stops being a barrier. A Korean teacher coaches in Korean while you read along in your own language on the shared board, so you can study with the tradition that produces the world's strongest players without speaking a word of Korean.
Common questions
Do I need to speak Korean?
No. Live captions translate the lesson into your language as your teacher speaks, and translate your questions back.
Are these teachers certified professionals?
Some hold professional certification (rank shown as 1p–9p); the rest are high-dan amateurs who play at professional level. Every profile shows the exact rank, so the distinction is always visible.
How is this different from the Korean lessons page?
The Korean lessons page is about the language your lesson is delivered in. This page is about the teacher's strength and tradition — the lineage that has led world Go for twenty years — available to you in any language through translation.
