The '2024 Perfect Korea 8th Competition and the Phoenix Cup 4th Competition to wrap up this year' was held in hot heat at KINTEX Exhibition Hall 2 in Goyang City on the 15th.
Hosted by the Korea Soft Darts Association (Chairman Bang Jun-sik), this season's final game was a fiery race from start to finish amid a booming situation involving 112 professional and 832 amateur players, the largest since COVID-19.
In Perfect Korea, where professional players participate, a breathless drama took place until the end. After a series of turnovers, Kim Yong-seok (Zerodat) ranked first, followed by Han Young-joo (Zerodat) and Lee Se-hyun (Pinix Stars) respectively.
Meanwhile, the Ladies Tournament was also held separately on the same day. The Ladies Tournament will be promoted to a regular tournament next year and will be held as a women's tournament along with the Phoenix Cup.
The competition, which began at 11:30 a.m., didn't end until 8:30 p.m. It was a festival of darts who were constantly cheering and encouraging due to the nature of soft darts that emphasized friendship and harmony as well as fierce competition. Various prize events were also accompanied to match the year-end atmosphere, heightening the festive atmosphere.
Perfect Korea and the Phoenix Cup, which started the season's first competition on March 10, will hold eight and four competitions, respectively. With Goyang KINTEX as the main stage, competitions were held at BEXCO and Jeonju Indoor Gymnasium in Busan to spread local dart culture, and small professional competitions were also held at Dartplex in Mapo, Seoul, a dart stadium. Busan (March), Daegu (May), Jeonju (September) and Goyang (December) are also scheduled next year.
