A graduate of North Korea’s youth system, he has been in and out of the squad over the last three years. He made just two appearances during qualifying, against Mongolia in 2007 and in a 0-0 draw with South Korea in March 2008.
He played three matches at the Under-20 World Cup in 2007 as North Korea drew with Panama and the Czech Republic and lost to Argentina.
A press release from North Korea’s official news channel, KCNA, said that Ri was selected as the Best Go Player for 2009 following his performances at the 2009 'Business Cup' International City Go Tournament held in Hangzhou, China in October 2009.
