On July 28， the friendly online go game between Chongqing， China and Gyeonggi Province， South Korea was successfully held at the Foreign Affairs Building. The friendly game was co-organized by the Chongqing Peoples Association for Friendship with Foreign Countries， Sports Division of Gyeonggi Provincial Government （South Korea）， and Foreign Affairs and Trade Division of Gyeonggi Provincial Government （South Korea） and undertaken by Chongqing Yubei Go Association， GABA （Gyeonggido Amateur Baduk Association） （South Korea） and Chongqing Kanji Go Club.

Before the game， Wang Guangcheng， vice president of the Chongqing People's Association for Friendship with Foreign Countries， delivered a speech and cheered for the players. He said that the key to sound relations between states lies in amity between the peoples， and closeness between the peoples holds the key to building sound state-to-state relations. Under the context of raging COVID-19 pandemic， restricted international travel and hindered personnel exchanges， holding an online friendly go game can strengthen the cultural exchanges between the two sides and convey the good will between the two cities with culture commonality. "I believe that the epidemic cannot stop the friendship between Chongqing and Gyeonggi Province. I sincerely hope that after COVID-19 is brought under control， the friendship between the two parties will be further deepened and exchanges and cooperation in various fields will be more active."

The friendly game took on-line form. Each of the two places sent 15 amateur players to form a lineup of high-level amateur players， staging a fierce competition. The oldest contestant is 65 years old and the youngest is only 10 years old. This friendly game took the opportunity of cultural exchanges between China and South Korea. Under the principle of friendship first and competition second， the players of both sides learned go skills from each other and exchanged experience， enhancing the friendship between Chongqing and Gyeonggi Province， and laying the foundation for the development of offline sports exchanges and cooperation between the two places and the establishment of a long-term exchange mechanism in the future.

Persons in charge of the Municipal Friendship Association Office and the Asian Division of the Municipal Governments Foreign Affairs Office participated in the event.
