	FAQ on Prize Payment
이미지 1. Must the prize money be received in a Korean bank account? - No. Winners may choose one of the following methods: 1) Korean Bank Account: A personal account held at a bank in South Korea. 2) International Remittance (SWIFT): A US Dollar (USD) denominated account capable of international transfers. * Note: Transfers are only processed in USD. Accounts denominated in other currencies (e.g., EUR) are not supported. * Detailed payment instructions will be provided to winners via email. 2. Must the winner receive the prize money through his/her own account? - We strongly recommend receiving the prize money through your own bank account, as this is the fastest and most convenient method. However, if you are a minor or are unable to receive international transfers due to international banking restrictions, you may appoint a representative to receive the prize on your behalf. Requirement: The designated representative must hold a valid, SWIFT-capable foreign currency account (USD). Procedure: All necessary documentation, including a Power of Attorney, will be provided to the winners separately. 3. When must the documents for prize payment be submitted? -The documents must be submitted within 3 weeks after the announcement of winners (the exact deadline will be nnounced separately), and detailed instructions will be provided by email together with the winner announcement. -If you do not reply within the deadline, or if you fail to respond to requests for additional documents, please note that your prize payment may be cancelled. 4. Guidelines for Submitting a Copy of the Alien Registration Card -The Alien Registration Card is an identification card issued to foreign nationals residing in Korea, and currently there are three types of Alien Registration Cards in use. -A copy of the Alien Registration Card must include both the front and back sides. > The information written on the back of the Alien Registration Card (Duration of Stay/Card Expires and Address) is required for tax withholding. > If the “Duration of Stay/Card Expires” or “Address” written on the back of the Alien Registration Card does not match your current registered information due to visa extension or moving, there may be problems in tax calculation. In that case, please use the “HiKorea” website (https://www.hikorea.go.kr) or visit a relevant administrative office to obtain official documents proving your current legal address and period of stay, and submit them together. - If you have recently entered Korea and have not yet been issued an Alien Registration Card, you may submit a copy of your passport instead.

	What is the difference between the two caegories (Hangeul / Nuri Hangeul) ?
이미지 The Hangeul category is for transcribing your own language in a way that is as close as possible to the current Korean writing system. The Nuri Hangeul category is for participating by utilizing the "Nuri Hangeul Transcription System" proposed by Hangeul Nuri Foundation. In the Hangeul category, you are generally expected to use a method similar to modern Korean orthography. However, to represent pronunciations that cannot be written in modern Korean, it is permitted to use Old Hangeul (Hunmin Jeongeum), which utilizes 28 letters, and historical Korean writing conventions. The Nuri Hangeul category involves transcribing your language based on the various features reflected in the Nuri Hangeul Transcription System. Hangeul Nuri Foundation proposed this system, based on the original creation principles and shapes of Hunminjeongeum, to transcribe the sounds of various languages around the world. Try writing your native language in your own Nuri Hangeul by referencing the currently proposed Nuri Hangeul transcription systems for English, Chinese, Spanish and Japanese. In both categories, participants are free to propose their own Hangeul transcription methods. However, in the Nuri Hangeul category, entries that actively reflect the principles and features of Nuri Hangeul may receive a more favorable evaluation.
