Miss Grand Korea 2017 was the first edition of the Miss Grand Korea pageant, held on July 6, 2017, at the EL Tower (엘타워), Seocho, Seoul.[1][2][3] Twenty-seven contestants from different cities and provinces of South Korea competed for the title.[2] At the end of the event, Park Ha-yeong of Suwon was announced the winner, while Ahn Eun-saem of Namyangju was named the vice-miss.[1][2][4] Ha-yeong later represented the country at the international parent stage, Miss Grand International 2017, held in Vietnam on October 25, but was unplaced.[5]
The event was hosted by Moon Yong-hyeon (문용현) and Park Ga-hee (박가희).[6]
After finishing the Miss Grand International 2016 in Las Vegas, Nevada, the Miss Grand Korea committee launched the regional auditions to select the finalists for the first Miss Grand Korea contest in November 2016.[7][8] The auditions was organized in several provinces throughout South Korea, including Seoul, Incheon, Gangwon, Chungcheong, Daegu, Busan, and Honam.[1][9][10][11][12]
The finalists who qualified through preliminary screenings then entered the training camp arranged from June 30 to July 5,[10] before competing in the grand final round on July 6.[1]
