Event Detail

World Vision Korea's HONGJOONG Global 6K Virtual Run combines a self-directed running challenge with its clean-water fundraising campaign. Participants choose their own routes rather than travelling to a shared start line. This Korean registration is separate from World Vision Singapore's longer Global 6K campaign and its Hongjoong-themed satellite activity.

Running and recording your participation

Complete 6 km and post your participation on social media during 1-7 November 2026 using the required hashtags #GLOBAL6K #HONGJOONG6K #G6K_KR. The event overview highlights 7 November, while both its detailed verification period and current poster cover the full week. There is no announced common flag-off.

The event-specific rules accept individual entrants aged 14 or older. Entry is confirmed on a first-paid basis, with a published capacity of 11,700. Registration closes on 16 October, well before the November running period; remaining places should be checked at the official entry page.

Digital rewards and optional reward conditions

Access the downloadable materials through the website's My Page and Virtual Run Rewards section. Pre-event downloads are advertised from 20 October at 10am Korea time, with the later digital materials available from 1 November at 10am. The published reward images are examples, not evidence that a physical shirt or medal is included.

The autographed sports towel requires participation in a separate Instagram event. An additional video is conditional on the campaign exceeding 5,000 participants. Neither item should be treated as an unconditional finisher entitlement.

Before entering from overseas

Confirm international payment access, participation eligibility and any physical-reward delivery arrangements with World Vision Korea. The site's generic precautions and several FAQ entries concern its physical races, including old refund dates, so they should not be assumed to govern this virtual edition. A compulsory GPS app, cumulative-distance permission, exact final verification hour and event-specific refund deadline were not established in the reviewed instructions.

World Vision states that entry contributions support its water and sanitation work. This listing does not certify a completed charitable transfer or promise a meeting or shared run with the campaign ambassador.
