GigaEyes Video Contest Ends on the 7th
Switches to Ongoing Contest... Small Business Promotion Service to Launch Within the Year
"Will Continue to Expand Fields"

On the 10th, KT announced that it has completed the "GiGAeyes Video Contest," which showcased various videos captured by the intelligent CCTV GiGAeyes. The GiGAeyes Live TV YouTube channel streams real-time footage of famous locations in South Korea filmed with GiGAeyes. Representative sites range from natural landscapes such as Jeju Seongsan Ilchulbong and Gangneung Beach to urban spots like Seoul Station Plaza, Gyeongbokgung Palace, and Han River bridges.

The GiGAeyes Video Contest accepted submissions for four weeks from May 15 to June 11, focusing on themes such as fun, novelty, and emotional impact in videos captured by GiGAeyes. Ten outstanding works selected through judging were uploaded to the GiGAeyes Live TV YouTube channel, and the Grand Prize and Excellence Awards were determined based on the number of 'likes' received.


The Grand Prize went to a shorts video titled "Goodbye Everyone." It humorously depicts a man who slips on stairs due to rain after leaving his house, falling on his backside and sliding all the way down. The Excellence Awards were given to four videos, including a shorts video titled "Red Tray." The "Red Tray" video captures the moment red liquid in a container spills onto the floor from a table.


KT plans to convert the GiGAeyes Video Contest into an ongoing contest without restrictions on submission targets and expand it into a channel that communicates daily life with the public. Additionally, the scope of the YouTube channel will be broadened. Besides videos recorded directly by CCTV, a service will be launched within the year that allows small business owners to stream real-time footage inside and outside their stores for promotional purposes.



Kim Young-sik, Executive Director of KT’s DX Platform Business Division, stated, "GiGAeyes is expanding as a platform that provides various video content alongside the basic CCTV functions of safety and security. We will continue to expand areas where GiGAeyes can be positively utilized in the daily lives of the public."
