Kakao VX will co-host a month-long screen golf tournament with the Korea Golf Influencer Association (KGIA).
The company said Monday it will run the "Quantum 9X Autumn Championship with KGIA" at Friends Screen Quantum stores nationwide from Monday through Dec. 9.
Anyone can enter by logging in at a Friends Screen Quantum store, accessing the official tournament through the Grand Prix menu and selecting the event. Participants must complete at least one full 18-hole round on each of two courses — Songnisan CC and Monarch CC.
The tournament name "Quantum 9X" is drawn from the swing plate technology of Friends Screen Quantum, which uses nine axes to simulate three-dimensional slope variations.
Prizes include golf lesson vouchers from KGIA professionals Kim Ji-min and Cha Jeong-u, prize money of 1 million won ($745), a putter and a stand bag. In addition to rankings-based awards, lucky draw prizes will also be available.
"We organized the tournament so that people can enjoy screen golf with friends during the late autumn golf season," a Kakao VX official said. "We hope everyone visits a nearby store, gets some exercise and takes home some great prizes."
