> The Kuksu Rui Naiwei 9 dan
The 44th Kuksu title sponsored by Donga Daily News and the Daewoo Group, with a prize fund of 180 million won of which 20 million won goes to the winner, is the most prestigious title. The main tournament is a seeded knockout of eight players (winner' s section) with the losers going across, according to the stage at which they lose, into a parallel repechage knockout (loser' s section); the winners of the two sections usually played a three-game match to challenge the holder in a five-game match (which is now a three-game match). Rui Naiwei, who is the undisputed women' s world champion, beat Cho Hoon-hyun two games to one in the final, having overcome the world number one Lee Chang-ho on the way.
