The winning works will be announced in June. The grand prize is 30 million KRW (including one MacBook Air), and the excellence awards are 5 million KRW each. If the winning works are later published as books, royalties will be paid separately from the prize money. In general contests so far, prize money has been considered an advance payment, and royalties were only paid if they exceeded the prize amount.



The awarded works may also be adapted into films or videos after consultation with publishers. According to Nexus Publishing, 3 out of the 5 winning works from the 1st and 2nd contests have signed adaptation contracts. The works with adaptation contracts are the 1st contest grand prize winner 'Nae Saeng-ui Majimak Diet' (My Life's Last Diet), excellence award 'N-bun-ui 1-eun Bimilro' (One Over N Is a Secret), and the 2nd contest grand prize winner 'Speed'.
