Yes. Seemed straightforward to be honest. Key concept here is distant opposition - which, granted, even some grandmasters don't seem to know (Alireza) - so maybe it's straightforward only to us old people.
definitely didn't calculate all the lines from the starting position, but I tried to avoid the losing moves after each play from black. Nice position as always! :)
Have you managed to find all the correct moves?

3:33 My answer is king b6, it achieves everything that king c6 would but stays off the diagonal and the pawn still blocks the e7 square
Positions like this is why chess is my favorite game.
Indeed, this shows the true beauty of chess
3:19 why does black play h4 instead of Ke7 (and then blocking white's pawn at Kd8)?
White will play Kd4 and cut back to pick up the black pawn

I am glad you like the position
How does this puzzle show whether one has chess talent? I call BS
I did not find all moves from the beginning, but I've found this move Kb6!! which draws a game.
I believe I have already seen it, but again I didn't find the solution just a few moves
This is why it's important to see some puzzles more time
Being lazy, I only got the first two moves.😢
That is good as well
