I have played many card games, from Magic(The gathering), poker, etc. Yesterday, a common friend which was a former ESL teacher for Koreans introduced this card game, it is called Go Stop.

Go-Stop (고스톱) is a Korean card game. Go-Stop is played with Hanafuda cards using a different point system. The cards are referred to as hwatu (화투) in Korean. In addition, a deck of Korean hwatu cards usually includes bonus cards. Typically, there are two or three players. The general point of this game is to score points, usually three or seven, and then call a “Go” or a “Stop.” When a “Go” is called, the game continues, and the amount of points or money is first increased, and then doubled, tripled, quadrupled and so on. If a “Stop” is called, the game ends and the winner collects their winnings.

The game is more of a luck game cause you got to have to pair the cards according to the images. Though at first I am a bit slow in recognizing some of the card images. The point system is a bit complicated because there are certain groupings of the cards after it is paired and each with their own equivalent points. It is a very good past time especially when you are with your friends. The game is really simple to learn and it is also fun, in fact I download the app in my mobile though I am still having difficulty adjusting the settings because it is in Korean :/ .

The card game is for everyone who wants to learn something new, and of course a way of knowing Korean culture, with all the popular Korean films, actors/actresses and TV shows in our screens today, a knowledge on their traditional card game can add something to your credentials as a Korean fan. :D
