The total prize money for the Inclusive Finance Video Contest is 6.7 million KRW. The judging criteria consisted of relevance to the theme, originality, applicability, and completeness, and evaluations were conducted by three experts from the agency and external professionals, along with a public online vote.

The grand prize-winning work, "The Answer is the Korea Inclusive Finance Agency!", focused on the Youth Sunshine Loan and Worker Sunshine Loan, creatively and entertainingly addressing financial concerns that young people, university students, and early career workers may face in daily life with a youthful sensibility.
