Miss Grand Korea (Korean: 미스 그랜드 코리아) is a lower concept of Miss Grand International that is held annually as a national female beauty pageant in Korea since 2020. This pageant is to select the representative for Korea to Miss Grand International, which is a pageant promoting World Peace and is against all violent conflicts.[1][2]

The current Miss Grand Korea titleholder is Lee Ji-ho of Seoul. Lee was crowned Miss Grand Korea on October 22, 2021.

History[edit]

From 2013 to 2015, the Korean representatives at Miss Grand International were determined by appointing Korean-Canadians that competed in the Miss Earth Canada contest. Later in 2016, the 1L2H Company chaired by South Korean businessman Hyun Dae-Gon franchised the license for Miss Grand International in Korea. The 2016 titleholder was appointed with the first contest being held the following year 2017.[3] In 2020, the marriage bureau company, Purples, and the Korea Premium Brand Association (KPBA), with Kim Ho-Seong as the president, purchased the Korean license for Miss Grand International and held the contest later that year with it airing on OBS Gyeongin TV.[3][4]

There was a lawsuit between KPBA and the 1L2H Company about the use of the brand name for Miss Grand Korea. Still, the court rejected all the arguments from both sides since the court considered the brand Miss Grand International belongs to the CEO of Miss Grand International, Nawatt. The court arbitrated that the name Miss Grand Korea could confuse participants, so only those with a current license should use the brand name which caused the old organization to change its pageant name to Miss Glorize Korea in late 2020.[3]
