BEMANI MASTER KOREA

BEMANI MASTER KOREA (BMK) is a biennial competition hosted by UNIANA, the publisher for BEMANI in Korea.

The DANCERUSH STARDOM Korea Championship (DANCERUSH STARDOM 한국 최강자전) was held alongside BMK 2019. DANCERUSH STARDOM Korea Championship is considered a sub-event rather than a part of BMK 2019, as the participants are different from the main matches and therefore the scores are separately aggregated.

BMK SPECIAL STAGE

  • Qualifying Round: July 1st - 6th, 2021
  • Final Round: July 17th

BMK SPECIAL STAGE sees many changes to its format due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The final stage was supposed to be held in PlayX4 2021 conference at Goyang with an audience of only 50 people (chosen by lot), due to restrictions by the South Korean Government. However, as the nationwide pandemic situation got worse, especially in the Seoul Capital Area, the final stage was changed to be held without an audience, pre-recorded and aired via PlayX4's Twitch channel.

Unlike the previous competitions, in BMK SPECIAL STAGE winners are chosen for each participating game.

The winners of this BEMANI MASTER KOREA competition were the following:

Two sub-events are held alongside BMK 2021: GAMECENTER Team Battle and DANCERUSH STARDOM Korea Championship Season 2.

GAMECENTER Team Battle is a competition between teams, each representing either a single store or an alliance of stores. No store or alliance can have more than one team. Qualification will be held in each store by its own rule, and a proposal should be sent to UNIANA to hold it.
