Congratulations!

So a different kohaku than last years runner up! Any idea why they bought/entered this one instead of last years runner up?

Just found that the runner up is also a kohaku from Sakai Fish Farm. I heard that the maruten kohaku is no longer alive.

Being dead makes that Kohaku even more expensive

So seems like this is the first time non-Japanese holding this honor AJS title. Is that correct?

Congrats to Mark and Martin....

Non-Japanese GC winner

Dinh,

I believe that a gentleman from Taiwan owned a kohaku that took Grand Champion at Shinkokai's All Japan a couple of years ago. Name evades me at this time, just remember seeing pictures of him, wife and daughter at award ceremony and later at home.
