    Comment: In this Chinese historical romantic drama there is a whole episode (episode 52) 
        on Go. The heroine Bai Ping Ting goes to a gambling house to seek help, where she is
        challenged to a game. Her lover and adversary Chu Bei Jie is secretly in charge there, but
        believes Bai is dead. The proprietress, Thirteenth Lady Yan, ensures the game is played 
        blindfold, the players having to remain in their rooms, so the opponents do not recognise 
        each other. The two players gradually recognise each others style from their moves. For the
        viewer the game is played out on a huge Go board set with ninja fighters acting out Go moves.

    Comment: This live action Japanese sci-fi series sees the battle fought against
      shape-shifting "orphnocs" created by the evil Smart Brain Corporation to 
      replace feeble humans. In episode 1 (9:20 minutes in) we see a Go ban and 
      bowls in the foreground of a shot in Yuji's uncle's house. This is followed 
      by the uncle playing through tsumego problems from a yellow book he is holding.
      While he is doing this he discuses his late brother's business with his son.

      We see close ups of white and black stones being placed on the first line of
      the board and also the uncle rearranging the position on the board. As each
      stone clicks on the board the sound echoes through the head of Yuji, despite
      him being elsewhere, who has just recently been resurrected from the dead.

    Comment: This popular Korean drama is about an insei, Jang Gue-Rae (played by Yim Si-Wan), who
      has failed at Go and given it up to work as an intern in a large international trading company. 
      He uses his Go skills to get ahead in the company. Various scenes in flashback show games being 
      played and tournaments (episode 1 at 48:50 in). A lot of the later plot-action is filmed in 
      Jordan. It is based on the webtoon and manga by author Yoon Tae-ho. 
         

Q1) Qi Hun (Hikaru no Go)
    Year: 2020

    Comment: This is a 2020 live adaption of the manga/anime Hikaru no Go. It has been
        changed from Japan to China of the 1990s, with a few plot developments but faithful
        to the original in many areas. 36 episodes chart out the relation between Shi Guang
        (Hikaru) with his friendly Go ghost (Chu Ying) and the rivalry with the pro's son (Yu Liang).
        As can be expected there are special effects with the ghost being see-through, but also
        animated moments such as the Divine Move.

      Go Board?" The other scenes two show men placing opening stones on an ornately
