Golf Magazine Korea Announces Top 10 Courses in Korea
Chairman Wang Wol: "Completion of a New Golf Platform Vision"

Club Nine Bridges has been selected as the number one golf course in Korea.

Pacific Links Korea (PLK), a global premium golf lifestyle platform, and Golf Magazine Korea recently held the Golf Magazine Korea Reboot Top 30 Courses Awards at the Josun Palace Seoul Gangnam in Gangnam-gu, Seoul. The evaluation was based on six criteria: shot value, difficulty, design diversity, memorability, aesthetics, and course management.

Club Nine Bridges, located in Seogwipo, Jeju Island, ranked first, followed by Haesley Nine Bridges in Yeoju, Gyeonggi Province in second place, and Jack Nicklaus Golf Club Korea in Incheon in third. Anyang Country Club (Gunpo, Gyeonggi Province), Woojeong Hills Country Club (Cheonan, South Chungcheong Province), Trinity Club (Yeoju, Gyeonggi Province), Jade Palace Golf Club (Chuncheon, Gangwon Province), Wellington Country Club (Icheon, Gyeonggi Province), Pine Beach Golf Links (Haenam, South Jeolla Province), and Whistling Rock Country Club (Chuncheon, Gangwon Province) took the 6th to 10th spots.

Last month, Pacific Links Korea signed a licensing agreement with EV Golf, an affiliate of 8AM, which operates Golf Magazine, the world's top golf publication, and Golf.com, the largest golf platform. To publish the magazine, Pacific Links Korea established Golf Magazine Korea and is now operating the publication.

Chairman Wang Wol stated, "We plan to maintain Golf Magazine Korea as an offline media outlet with rarity, prestige, and collectible value, while developing it into a comprehensive media platform by integrating digital content, community, and events in collaboration with Golf.com and others."

Golf Magazine Korea plans to expand and refine its evaluation system by launching additional series, including the Top 10 Golf Clubs, Top 10 Resorts, Top 10 Golf Communities, Top 10 Gourmet Golf Courses, and Top 10 Member Experience Golf Courses, in addition to the national representative course selection.
