Problem Statement

Consider an acute triangle ABCABC and it's circumcircle ω\omega. With center AA, we construct a circle γ\gamma that intersects arc ABAB of circle ω\omega , that doesn't contain CC, at point DD and arc ACAC , that doesn't contain BB, at point EE. Suppose that the intersection point KK of lines BEBE and CDCD lies on circle γ\gamma. Prove that line AKAK is perpendicular on line BCBC.
