Endgame problem Lee Chang Ho against Lee Sedol

Post by dtslife »

I was stumbled upon the Lee Chang Ho Facebook fanpage (it has not been updated recently), and found this game between Lee Chang Ho and Lee Sedol that is from the Myeongin League according to the page. This end game resignation surprised me because originally it appeared that black was connected. After pondering for awhile, I finally arrived on the answer. Enjoy solving this!
Scroll to the end of the game for the question.
Question: At the end of the game, if If white cuts, how does black stay connected?

We don't know who we are; we don't know where we are.
Each of us woke up one moment and here we were in the darkness.
We're nameless things with no memory; no knowledge of what went before,
No understanding of what is now, no knowledge of what will be.
