The contest will feature an eight-minute performance-style CPR demonstration, in which participants freely present the emergency response process based on a scenario involving cardiac arrest.

For the actual evaluation, teams will consist of two members, and their overall CPR skills in response to various situations will be comprehensively assessed.

Notably, this year a new category for foreigners has been added, and to improve participation convenience, the special category—which was previously operated as a single section—has been divided into northern and southern regions.

Outstanding teams will receive certificates from the Governor of Gyeonggi Province. In addition, the top teams in the student and youth category, as well as the university and general category, will be given the opportunity to participate in the national competition.
