Whoa. This company looks like it has awesome potential... Too bad I can't read Korean... Be sure to keep us posted if you find out any more information about this place. Would love to read about their products.

bengozen, you can be sure of that.

Actually a friend of mine already traslated and it seems that they are just setting up the online sale but thru retailers.

It would be interesting to see if Go Game Guru gets into this.. I know they have people in South Corea!

Oh, I'm sure Go Game Guru is aware of their wares ;-) as GGG already carries the massive kaya board with a cinnamon base for about $4k less than CYHY.

All the boards are most likely coming from the same source: Six Brothers Baduk Board Company, which reportedly makes ~70% of all the boards in South Korea.

Oh my, and with a little more exploration via MetaCrawler, I find that CYHY and Six Brothers Baduk Board are one in the same! Here's the relevant snip from http://gosensations.com/?id=2&server_id=1&new_id=1385:

"Paek Youngcha is the selling manager of "6 brothers baduk" - the biggest company in Korea, producing Go equipment for more than 40 years. His ID on Ebay is 'cyhy202'"

His email: 백영자 <bak202@hotmail.co.kr>
But we had some problems before, so I will not recommend this source. Difficult to get money back and they cannot pack items well - some boards arrived damaged.
