Problem Statement

Acute triangle ABC\triangle ABC with AB<ACAB<AC, circumcircle Γ\Gamma and circumcenter OO is given. Midpoint of side ABAB is DD. Point EE is chosen on side ACAC so that BE=CEBE=CE. Circumcircle of triangle BDEBDE intersects Γ\Gamma at point FF (different from point BB). Point KK is chosen on line AOAO satisfying BKAOBK \perp AO (points AA and KK lie in different half-planes with respect to line BEBE). Prove that the intersection of lines DFDF and CKCK lies on Γ\Gamma.
