Originally, the winner of the contest, Park Serim, was expected to representSouth Korea at theinternational parent stage held inVenezuela on October 25,[1][4] but withdrew due to the deteriorating political situation and safety concern in the host country.[5] Park was then sent to compete at the Miss Global 2019 pageant instead.[6] After being unable to send a delegate to join the international contest, 1L2H Company later lost the franchise to the Korea Marriage Bureau and Korea Premium Brand Association the following year.[7]
