This episode is from All Things Go, a podcast about the board game Go, also known as Baduk in Korea and Weiqi in China.

Travis speaks with Korean professional Go player and content creator Eunkyo Do about her unusual path from childhood prodigy to finance professional, broadcaster, and eventually professional player. She reflects on failing the pro exam as a teenager, returning to Go years later, broadcasting Lee Sedol’s historic win over AlphaGo, and training alongside much younger students before finally becoming a professional. The episode also includes a short segment from TelegraphGo explaining why Park Junghwan is his favorite professional player and how Park successfully adapted from the pre-AI era into modern Go.
