The 2024 Korean Curling Championships, (branded as the 2024 KB Financial Korean Curling Championships), Korea's national curling championships, were held from June 9 to 17 at the Uijeongbu Curling Stadium in Uijeongbu, South Korea.[1] The winning teams on both the men's and women's sides became the Korean National Teams for the 2024–25 curling season. They will represent Korea at the 2024 Pan Continental Curling Championships, the 2025 Asian Winter Games and later the 2025 World Curling Championships. Both the men's and women's events were played in a round robin format which qualified four teams for the page playoffs.[2]
The men's reigning champions Gangwon Province (skipped by Park Jong-duk) entered the championship as the top ranked team.[3] During the 2023–24 season, the rink led Korea to a silver medal finish at the 2023 Pan Continental Curling Championships and a twelfth-place finish at the 2024 World Men's Curling Championship.[4] On tour, they reached one final at the 2023 Hokkaido Bank Curling Classic. 2022 champions Seoul City Hall (Jeong Byeong-jin) and 2021 champions Gyeongbuk Sports Council (Kim Soo-hyuk) rounded out the top three men's teams prior to the event.
2023 women's champions Gyeonggi Province (skipped by Gim Eun-ji) had a historic 2023–24 season as they became the first Korean team to rank inside the top three in the world. During their run, the team won gold at the 2023 Pan Continental Championships and went on to claim bronze at the 2024 World Women's Curling Championship.[5] [6] They also won Korea's first Grand Slam of Curling title at the 2023 National and also won the 2023 Curlers Corner Autumn Gold Curling Classic and the 2024 International Bernese Ladies Cup on tour.[7] Rounding out the pre-event favorites on the women's side were Gangneung City Hall (Kim Eun-jung) and Chuncheon City Hall (Ha Seung-youn), the 2021 and 2022 national champions respectively.
