Early in the morning, the Bae household is very quite, people would think that everyone is still asleep, but the two man that was punished by their partners is already up

Jinwoo and Irene's father is playing a game of chess, and it seems that the older man is winning after taking Jinwoo queen

"So... how are you going to win this?" Mr Bae asked, because from his point of view there's not much that Jinwoo can do to turn the game around

Jinwoo smile and move his chess piece around to castle "well... it's possible, we just have to wait and see"

The two men continue their play with Irene's father continues attacks trying to check mate Jinwoo and Jinwoo defending and moving his pieces around the board

Irene's father is confused at how is Jinwoo defending so well and soon he saw that his pieces is slowly but surely thinning down, but he realized it too late

"Check" Jinwoo move his knight claiming the black rook

In doing so he have the black king, queen and rook pinned

Irene's father looks in disbelief because no matter what he do right now it will only prolonged the game to his eventual loss, he moves his king and Jinwoo take his queen and by this time the game is pretty much over

Jinwoo still have so much pawn that he can develop while Irene father only have 4

Irene's father sat back and recall his play during the game when he realize that Jinwoo move his king when he knows that he will get checked and defend it by trading pieces

"You lead me on a wild goose chase didn't you, hoping that i take the bait and we trade pieces to secure your king" Mr Bae said

Jinwoo smile and nodded "well technically i just move things around so i can even out the playing field, but knowing how aggressive you play i just took advantage of it and play around it"

Irene's father can't help but laugh at his explanation "hahaha~ no wonder you're called the master tactician, now that i have experience it on my own i feel sorry for your lane opponents" Mr Bae said while resetting the board

"Wait... you watch me?" Jinwoo asked surprised

"It was on the tv one day, Jihyeon was watching your game and since i have nothing else to watch i watch it with her, i think it was 2015 worlds final when you got the MVP, she explain to me about everything throughout the game, she talked about the mechanics and roles, even about you, about how you play aggressive at the start of your career but now you more of a pillar for your team, playing defensive by outsmarting your opponents and shot calling for a play
