The kifus of the final games do not seem to be published anywhere yet. KBS in recent years has been rather strict enforcing its right to the game records (which is considered controversial by some other media players). Even some Asian TV Cup games played last September are not available - it was KBS's turn to hold the 2016 edition.
well that's a shame. But I'm assuming that the KBS will finally publish these kifus at sometime somehow, like, in their TV programs? It's hardly to image a Broadcasting System company will keep these kifus never published just to insist their rights to the game records
I can understand the holding back of the kifu as long as the games have not been broadcasted yet. After that, of course it is a piece of cake, whether the kifu is handed over or derived from the broadcast. I guess there is no point in holding back the broadcast for several weeks or months. In the meantime, Lee Sedol apparently isn't playing that much lately.
