The Korean Mixed Doubles Curling Championship (branded as the KB Financial Korean Mixed Doubles Curling Championship) are the annual Korean mixed doubles curling championships, organized by the Korean Curling Federation (KCF). The winners of the championship qualify for the Korean National Team.

Until 2019, the winning pair automatically earned the right to represent South Korea at the World Mixed Doubles Curling Championship. Beginning in 2020, the World Curling Federation reduced the World Championship field to twenty teams with the bottom four teams being relegated to the next years World Mixed Doubles Qualification Event.[1] Based on the results of the previous year, the winning team now either qualifies directly for the World Championship or is sent to the Qualification Event where they need to place in the top four to qualify.[2]

Every four years, the winners also qualify to represent South Korea at the Winter Olympic Games if the country received a berth through world championship points.[3] Starting in 2024, the championship also qualifies the winners for the Asian Winter Games if it is held during the season they are the national team.

The national championship is usually held in July or August following the Korean Curling Championships team competition.

History

[edit]

In 2020, a rule change in eligibility allowed men's and women's team players to also compete in the mixed doubles discipline, resulting in a thirty-one team field for the 2021 championship.[4]
