The 2025 Goseong-gun County Cup National Tournament, which marks its fifth anniversary this year, will be transformed into a family-friendly festival-type billiard competition. It will be decorated as a festival venue full of food and entertainment, away from the simple center of the game, to provide visitors with a different experience.
Free snacks such as popcorn and slush will be provided to visitors visiting the site. Along with this, 'Photo Card Booth' is operated, enabling the production of commemorative photo cards that can record the site of the competition as a memory. In addition, various events such as giveaways using local specialties and pro-am friendly matches with professionals will be held at the site of the competition.
In particular, from 6:30 p.m. on the 20th, a live music talk show 'Little Lakes' will be held to create a new culture of billiard rooms in collaboration with SOOP, Korea's largest livestreaming platform. Famous and popular streamers 'Bamyanggang' and 'Melonty' will participate in the small rakes, breaking away from the existing billiard room and transforming it into a new sports and cultural complex space.
Meanwhile, a total of 1,514 people, including 936 sports athletes and 578 professional athletes, will participate in the competition for five days. Carom, snooker and English Billiard events will be held at Goseong-gun National Sports Center, and pocket ball events will be held at Goseong-gun Indoor Gymnasium.
In addition, top Korean players such as Cho Myung-woo (Seoul City Hall), the world No. 1 carom 3 cushion, Heo Jeong-han (Gyeongnam Dang-gu Federation), and Kim Haeng-jik (Jeonnam Dang-gu Federation) are participating, drawing keen attention from fans to the top-ranked competition.
In addition, Kim Haeng-jik, who won last year's Carom 3 Cushion General Doubles, and Heo Jeong-han and Lee Jong-hoon, who finished second with Choi Hota, will play as the same team again this year, drawing keen attention to the direction of winning the doubles match.
The competition is free to watch all games, and the main games will be broadcast live on the channels 'SOOP' and 'SOOP TV'. Detailed game schedules and on-site event information can be found on the official website of the Korean Basketball Association and on-site SNS channels.
