The 'superstar' Aryna Sabalenka (28, Belarus), who captured the attention of tennis fans worldwide with her powerful presence on the court as well as her radical fashion, is finally stepping onto Korean courts.

Semasports Marketing announced on the 22nd that it will hold 'Hyundai Card Culture Project 32: Naver X Hyundai Card THE SIX (hereinafter The Six)' for three days from December 25 to 27 at Inspire Arena, Yeongjongdo, Incheon, in collaboration with Hyundai Card and Naver.

This tournament, with a total prize pool of $1.1 million (approximately 1.47 billion won), is a large-scale invitational tournament where six top-tier female tennis players who dominate the global women's tennis scene will gather and compete. This is the first time such a large-scale women's tennis event has been held in Korea.

The name that draws the most attention is undoubtedly Sabalenka. With her explosive serve and powerful game, she has maintained the world No. 1 ranking for 99 consecutive weeks, reigning as a champion who represents an era. Although she recently relinquished the top spot to Kazakhstan's Elena Rybakina, who won the 2026 US Open, dropping to world No. 2, she remains one of the most threatening and talked-about players on the women's tennis stage.

In particular, Sabalenka is famous not only for her skills but also for her unique personality and star power. Ahead of this year's French Open, she unveiled a radical sheer-style Nike uniform featuring a bold red and black gradient, sparking global attention. At the time, Sabalenka introduced it as "my super suit," borrowing a famous line from the movie 'The Incredibles,' and received explosive praise from global fans, including 'the best uniform ever' and 'a suit fit for a queen.'

Another 'global icon' Naomi Osaka (29, Japan), who is no less than Sabalenka in terms of fashion and buzz, is also drawing intense interest with her visit to Korea. Osaka, who has frequently sparked controversy and headlines with unique outfits that resemble runway shows at every major tournament, is a star who became the first Asian male or female player to reach world No. 1 after winning four Grand Slam titles. With both players known for their on-court performances as well as their striking fashion sense, they are now visiting Korea side by side.

In addition to them, the lineup of participants is dazzling. Leading the field is Rybakina, who reclaimed world No. 1 from Sabalenka and won the 2026 US Open, followed by Iga Swiatek (Poland), a dominant force with six Grand Slam titles; Mirra Andreeva (Russia), the youngest Roland Garros women's singles champion of the 21st century; and Jasmine Paolini (Italy), gold medalist in women's doubles at the Paris Olympics. A total of six players will compete.

The tournament will be held in a knockout format where defeat leads directly to elimination. On Christmas Day, December 25, four players other than the top two seeds (Rybakina and Sabalenka) will play two quarterfinal matches. Then on the 26th, the two winners of the quarterfinals will each face one of the top two seeds in semi-final matchups, with the final on the 27th deciding the inaugural champion.

Tickets for this event can be purchased exclusively by Naver Plus members and Hyundai Card holders, with an additional 10% discount offered to those holding 'Naver Hyundai Card.' Reservations will begin on Tuesday, October 27, via Naver.
