Ma Xiaochun was interviewed just after the first game of this match. Please read H.L.Hu's translation posted on the newsgroup rec.games.go. The interview mentions a best-of-ten match to be played between them since Ma and Lee meet in this Samsung final but will also meet in the 3rd LG Cup final (also played over a best-of-five match as is the Samsung Cup).

In another article translated by H.L.Hu Ma outlines his plans for 1999 concerning his Go.
