Golfzon to hold screen golf festival with W500m purse

Golfzon will host the 2026 Paldo Festival Season 2, a screen golf event with a total purse of 500 million won ($374,000).

The company said Tuesday the event will run from Monday through Nov. 29 at Golfzon Park stores nationwide, under the theme "Prize money stacks up with every swing — from par to hole-in-one."

Now in its ninth edition, the event is open to players who log in at Golfzon Park stores equipped with TwoVision NX Plus, TwoVision NX or TwoVision Plus systems. The three tournament courses are Basestars CC, Pine Ridges CC (Pine and Lake), and Blackstone Belforêt CC. Players who complete 18 holes on each course begin accumulating prize money from their fourth round onward, based on scores of par or better.

The amounts credited for par, birdie and eagle vary by course, while an albatross earns 1,000 won and a hole-in-one earns 5,000 won. Prize money will be paid out as G-Pass Money after the event ends. Players who complete their first round receive a 2,000-won mobile voucher, and those who finish all three courses receive an additional 3,000-won voucher.

Choi Su-young, head of Golfzon's GS project planning team, said the company hopes players "enjoy the prize money that builds up with every round, along with the various benefits on offer."
