[Asia Economy Reporter Hyunseok Yoo] Blockchain specialist company Galaxia Metaverse announced on the 30th that it will issue and sell the first-ever KLPGA pro golfers Park Hyun-kyung and Lim Hee-jung's rounding products as NFTs in Korea.


Galaxia Metaverse will open its auction service, originally scheduled for the first quarter of next year, ahead of schedule and apply it to sell the rounding NFT with pro golfer Park Hyun-kyung.


Pro golfer Park Hyun-kyung won her first KLPGA Tour victory in 2020 and achieved a historic feat by defending the title of the Chris F&C KLPGA Championship, a major tournament on the Korean Women's Professional Golf Tour, with a comeback win in 2021?the first in 39 years.


The first NFT of Park Hyun-kyung, titled ‘The First Win,’ which will open via auction on the 31st, is differentiated from other NFTs in that it provides a physical product allowing participation in a rounding event with Park Hyun-kyung. The physical package includes a digital art piece capturing Park Hyun-kyung’s first victory moment, a companion rounding ticket to play together at Wellington CC, Korea’s top golf course, clubhouse meals, and Park Hyun-kyung’s signed ball and signed cap. All proceeds from sales will be donated.


Ko Kwang-rim, CEO of Galaxia Metaverse, said, “Meta Galaxia is expanding the market by issuing rounding products with professional golfers as NFTs for the first time in Korea, satisfying users’ needs with high-quality and differentiated content. We expect active transactions through various user-based services, including the auction function to be opened this time.”



Starting with pro golfer Park Hyun-kyung, Galaxia Metaverse plans to open differentiated NFTs linked to events that can only be experienced on ‘Meta Galaxia,’ including preparing to issue NFTs for player Lim Hee-jung in January next year.
