Dong-A Otsuka Cancels 'Pocari Sweat Sangju Tennis Tournament'
Disaster Declared Due to Large-Scale Wildfire
Relief Supplies to Be Provided to Wildfire-Affected Areas
Dong-A Otsuka announced on the 28th that it has decided to cancel the '2025 Pocari Sweat Sangju Open Tennis Championship,' which was scheduled to be held in Sangju and Mungyeong, Gyeongsangbuk-do, from the 29th to the 30th.
This decision was made in consideration of the recent large-scale wildfire in the Gyeongsangbuk-do area, which led to the declaration of a disaster situation, with the local community focusing on damage recovery and ensuring the safety of residents. In particular, it was deemed inappropriate to proceed with a festival-like event as planned, out of respect for the victims and to support a swift return to normalcy.
