As Lee Wonyoung said in his recent interview: "I am very weak in yose".
Kong Jie, 9-dan was lucky - he played better than Lee in yose and won by 0.5 point!

Few weeks ago Lee Wonyoung became 1-dan pro - as best Korean Baduk Association insei. We will see him soon in pro tournaments. How do you think, how soon will he fight for big pro titles?

Kong Jie went on to win this tournament though, despite this early scare. He even lost to Lee Changho, and had to beat Lee Wonyoung twice to qualify for the knockout rounds due to the new repache format. He did defeat Yamashita Keigo, Park Younghoon, Gu Li and Qiu Jun to take the world title, but maybe he was lucky not to bump into Lee Changho a second time? ^^
