■ What is the Daydreaming Tournament?
Participation is especially meaningful for busy people
In today's world, where the spread of social media has led to information overload and many people losing their peace of mind, this tournament provides an opportunity to rediscover the value of time spent daydreaming and experience the value of time that may at first glance seem worthless.
A tournament that sounds a warning to modern society
In modern times, time spent daydreaming is defined as worthless and wasted time.
Many modern people believe that they should only immerse themselves in productive and valuable activities and not waste their lives. However, in order to survive in today's world where we are overwhelmed with information and unable to keep up with processing it every day,
It is also important to "space out your thoughts" (i.e., leave some space in your mind).
A movement that is rapidly expanding both domestically and internationally
The tournament began in Korea in 2014 and is now held in six countries around the world, including Taiwan, Hong Kong, and the Netherlands. The first tournament in Japan last year recorded 17 million impressions on X (formerly Twitter) and was broadcast on 13 terrestrial TV programs. The global response is growing every year, with the Korean tournament being featured on the globally influential CNN news in May 2024.
The world is paying attention to this "daydreaming" sport
The competition is a "spaced-out" contest in which participants compete to see who can relax their mind and body the most for 90 minutes. Participants wear attire that represents their occupation or position, and are judged based on both their artistic and technical ability, with heart rate fluctuations and relaxation levels being measured.
