This competition was held as a selection event for the 2023 sports climbing national team, and the event was held in two events (combine (lead + bouldering) and speed).
On the first day of the competition, the men’s and women’s speed preliminaries and finals were held on the 7th, the combine preliminary on the 8th, and the combine final and award ceremony on the 9th.
As a result of the competition, in the men’s combine category, Lee Do-hyun (Jeonbuk, Legend Climbing Club), Cheon Jong-won (Gyeongnam, Central Gyeongnam Climbing), and Song Yun-chan (Gyeonggi, Doraeul High School) took 1st, 2nd, and 3rd places, respectively.
