Hi everyone! I recently discovered the traditional Korean game Gonggi and I’ve spent the last 24 hours trying to master it.

I didn't have the official stones, so I used 10-cent Euro coins. I tried playing on a wooden table, then I even tried parchment paper (baking paper) to reduce friction, but in the end, I found it com fortable on the sofa.

It’s incredibly hard because the surface is uneven and the coins are flat and slippery, but I managed to:

Capture 4 coins at once (All-in) in about 480ms.

Balance 5 coins on the back of my hand

I know my technique isn't perfect and I'm not using the traditional pieces, but I have so much respect for this game! It’s way harder than it looks.

Greetings from Naples, Italy!
