Who can take part
The 2026 Chungcheong University Unification Golden Bell is organized by Korea University Sejong Campus's unification-education project, with support from the national unification-education institute. The university's official announcement schedules the competition for Saturday, November 21, 2026 at 13:00, at Public Policy Building, Room 409, Korea University Sejong Campus. It is open to students of universities in the Chungcheong region, including those on leave or with deferred graduation. Teams contain two or three members, and they need not study at the same school or in the same department.
Quiz format and awards
The preliminary and main rounds are team competitions; qualifying finalists then compete as individuals. Advertised prizes include KRW 1,000,000 for the Peace Golden Bell, KRW 400,000 for the Unification Prize, KRW 200,000 for the Democracy Prize and KRW 100,000 for the Leading Prize. The number of winners may change. These are prizes for winners, not payments to all entrants. A topic/question guide is scheduled for distribution to confirmed teams.
