4th-grade girl to make debut as youngest pro go player in April

- Elementary schoolgirl Sumire Nakamura will debut as the youngest professional go player ever in Japan in spring, when she turns 10, carrying Japanese hopes for a return to world supremacy in the board game.
The Nihon Ki-in (The Japan Go Association) announced Jan. 5 that it will accept Sumire, an Osaka fourth-grader, as the first pro under a special program for elementary school go players “with the potential for becoming the world’s No. 1.”
She will set a new record as the youngest professional go player in Japan for the first time in a decade.
Previously, Rina Fujisawa, 20, held the mark when she turned pro at 11 years, six months in 2010.
Starting from April 1, Sumire will become a member of the association’s Kansai branch, based in Osaka, playing in various competitions, including female-only ones.
“I want to win a title while I am in junior high school,” Sumire, accompanied by her parents, said at a news conference in Tokyo on Jan. 5. “I am aspiring to become a go player like Yuta Iyama.”
Iyama, 29, currently holds the titles of five of the seven major go competitions in Japan. He received the People’s Honor Award last year.
Sumire challenged Iyama in Higashi-Osaka, Osaka Prefecture, on Jan. 6, but the two left the match unfinished.
When Cho U, one of the leading players, faced off against Sumire last month to gauge her skills, the child prodigy stunned association officials by holding the 38-year-old pro to a draw.
“I have heard of her reputation before, but she proved to be a lot stronger than I had imagined,” said Cho after the game. “I played with Iyama when he was in elementary school, but I am under the impression that she is better than he was back then.”
Cho added that he has great expectations for her to successfully compete on the global stage.
Sumire’s feat is not unexpected, though, given her family background.
She is the only child of professional go player Shinya Nakamura, 45, holder of the ninth-dan, and wife, Miyuki, 38, a former go instructor.
When she was 3, Sumire was introduced to the game by her mother.
When she was 7, her family moved to Seoul for Sumire to undergo go training, traveling back and forth between Japan and South Korea since.
South Korea, along with China, has spawned an army of formidable players since 1990s, eclipsing Japan, which was once the world’s strongest.
Sumire won the championship for children in the lower grades of elementary school in South Korea in 2017.
Last year, the Korea Baduk Association accepted her as a candidate for a professional go player.
After Japanese players had lost world titles by 2005, an alarmed Japan Go Association set up a special program to allow extremely gifted children to play as a professional without requiring them to pass a pro test.
The association is hoping that Sumire will land a world title in the future.
She is so cute, kawayi. Good luck for your new life.
かわいい💞
うむ。負けん気の強そうなお子さんだ。目付きを見たら分かる。逸る気持ちを内に秘め、対局する様になれば、素晴らしい棋士となるだろう。末恐ろしいとは言ったものよ。それにしても、彼女と対局した方も素晴らしい。ちゃんと引き分けにし、彼女に華を持たせ、我が身も安泰。やはり大人の指方に感服致しました。
すごいよね9齢でプロになるなんてすごいよね
あらぁ、可愛いのねぇ🥰💕
仲邑菫ちゃん、めっちゃ可愛い!! ”天は二物を与えちゃった”んだね。でも、まだなにせ10歳？、特にマスコミの皆さん、あまり大騒ぎせず、長い目で温かく見守っていきましょう。
Astonishing, how geniuses are born. But hopefully the pressure of being a professional will not get in the way of happy childhood.
凄い才能だ。
見た目が完全に子供、完全に小学生の女の子なのにプロなんだ、これは凄い。
An extremely talented little girl. I understand she is conversant in both Japanese and Korean languages.
42:32～
凄い貴重なお話
お父さん、お母さんが、可愛がっているのが、瞳ちゃんの表情からわかる・・・
プロで可愛くて最強(*´-`)
女流棋士は 謝依旻から藤沢里菜と上野愛咲美の新時代かと思ってたけど、この子が出てきて盛り上がるね。
学業も優秀なんだろうな 可愛い
가와이!
한국와서 많이 배워서 세계 일인자가 되기를 바래.
가장중요한 시기에 한국으로
바둑유학을 결정한것은 신의한수였다 스미레일본서 맘껏재능을펼치기를 바란다
I just worry she is getting too much attention when she is young. I hope this does not affect her in learning gogo.
強いのは間違いないが特例というのはな。必ずツッコまれる。何より強いから勝てる、タイトルを取れるとは限らない、状況やコンディションで変わってくるこらな。
前々から10代でプロは普通の事とは聞いてたけど、とにかく凄い
이 아이는 너무 사랑스러워서 응원하지 않을 수 없다.
偉いなあ。笑顔で
스미레 앞으로 세계를 제패할 천재소녀, 너무귀엽고 사랑스럽네, 이런딸을둔 부모는 전생에 복을많이 지었습니다. 스미레의 무궁무진한 발전을 기원합니다!!

일본인의 한 좀 풀어줘, 요즘 일본 바둑계보면 안스럽다. 한국과 중국기사들 다 이기고 최고가 되렴.
진서오빠가 제일 힘들거야~~
so cute ~
I really feel sorry for her. She could just enjoy her childhood (as much as that's possible in Japan) but her father being already Go player certainly forced her to share passion of his and put enormous pressure on her.
Please stop judging people life...
cute and sweet .
스미레 귀여운거보소 ㅋㅋㅋ
将棋の藤井プロのように若い才能が出れくれば業界が活性化するが、それを狙った大人たちの思惑に利用されるのでなければ良いが・・
gilzer2000jp 言うてまだ藤井七段活躍出来てないけどね
しっかりしてるだろうな
超かわいいポニテの少女だね
Wow so cute!
可愛い女の子がプロ棋士の仲間入りして、大変嬉しいです。タイトルを、取る棋士になって欲しいです。機会が出来れば、こんな可愛い女の子から指導を受けたいです。
可愛いね
１つ抜けていました、世界で勝てる棋士になり世界戦で優勝して欲しいです。
프로 입단은 진심으로 축하하는 바이지만 한편으로 한창 기력이 성장할 시기에 강한 상대가 없는 환경이 도움이 될까 솔직히 살짝 걱정이 되지 않는 바도 아닙니다 하지만 천재라면 어디서도 송곳처럼 꿰뚫고 나올 수 있으리라 기대하고 있겠습니다
彼女、韓国語流ちょうなのね^^
やっぱり聡明な顔つきしてるなぁー。
She is pretty & cute

こんな堅苦しい会見してるから囲碁人口なんて伸びないんでしょ。インタビュアー高圧的すぎない？
かわいい😍❤️💕
긔요미^^
귀여웡 (*´꒳`*)
将棋より囲碁のほうがグローバル・ゲームだけど、記者会見での皆さんのお話が口下手。世界に伍していけるかしら。口下手というだけでなく、まず制度の説明をきっちりすべきなのに、なんだかズルズル。
目のクルクルが止まらないのは9歳そのもの。活躍したら人気沸騰必至だ。
うちは8歳
귀엽긴 한데 천재는 아닐 듯,,,,,,,
우리나라 아그들한테 거시기 될듯//////
両親が京大教授の家庭で英才教育を受けたような家庭環境だな
スゴい
採用？って言うの？
스미레 기여워
바둑왕되세요~^^

高評価、ありがとうございます。
스미레양 너무 귀엽다. sm yg 연습생으로 가자~ㅋ 우주최초 바둑돌ㅋ
いやいや性格がキツイとは素晴らしいです、精神が強力だということでしょうから。

めっちゃこの子大人っぽい‼精神年齢めっちゃ高そう!タイトルとれるように頑張ってください❗
일상속에서도 수를 얼마나 내다 보고 있을까..
무서운 녀석
스미레 앙증맞게 귀엽네 : )
圍棋高手憑得是實力，不是靠年齡和賣萌，不能因為在同齡人中佼佼出眾就任意冠以天才的頭銜，如此一來豈不是貽笑大方。
这是值得鼓励的。。何必嘲讽。。
카와이
중국에서두 인기 엄청나다함

もう１つのコメントにも高評価を頂き、大変ありがとうございました。

カワイイ、カワイイんだがジュニアサイズの柳原可奈子にも見える（ｗ
일본 언론들 그리고 부모도 문제인것 같다 좀 편안하게 바둑을 공부하고 배워야할 나인데 너무 극성이네 이 아이가 한국 어린이 바둑 대회에나와 16강에서 탈락하고 울면서 두는것을 보면서 생각한것은 자기 또래와 어린 아이에게 한번도 진적이 없다가 한국에서 그것도 상대가 안될 정도록 대패를 한것이 감당이 안된것 같아 안타까워다 지는것도 알아야 하는데 일본 언론이 호들갑을 떨며 영웅처럼 대하니 어린 아이가 무엇을 생각 했겠는가 좀 자유로운 생각으로 인생과 바둑을 배워야 좋은 삶을 살것 같다
少女塔矢亮？？？
카와이 스미레상 :)
