Park Min-gyo (Yongin Special City Hall) claimed the Halla Jangsa title in the Halla division (105 kg or under) at the "Withers Pharmaceutical 2026 Goesan Chuseok Jangsa Ssireum Tournament," securing his 10th career Halla Jangsa title.

Park defeated Kim Mu-ho (Ulsan Uiju County Hall) 3-1 in the Halla Jangsa (105 kg or under) final (best of five) at the tournament held on the 10th at the Goesan Culture and Sports Center in Goesan County, Chungcheongbuk-do, to claim the championship.

Park, who had not yet won a Jangsa title this season, shed his frustration by winning the tournament.

Park advanced to the semifinals by defeating Oh Chang-rok (MG Saemaul Geumgo Ssireum Team) 2-0 in the quarterfinals. He then made it to the Halla Jangsa final by consecutively executing a push-down and a hip throw against Son Chung-hee (Ulsan Uiju County Hall).

In the final, he faced Kim Mu-ho, who had maintained an undefeated streak this season.

In the first round, Park took the lead by winning with a collar tie. In the second round, Kim recovered one point with a hip throw, tying the match.

In the third round, Park regained the lead by successfully executing a push-down.

In the final fourth round, after a fierce battle, he secured a 3-1 victory by successfully executing a leg trip.

With this, Park avenged his disappointment at last year's Chuseok tournament and claimed his 10th career Halla Jangsa title, while also securing his first-ever Chuseok Jangsa title.
