‘The 21st Busan International Film Festival (BIFF)’ was kicked off in Haeundae, Busan on October 6.
Sets at BIFF Village, the venue on Haeundae Beach which was to host many of the festival’s outdoor events, were almost completely destroyed when the typhoon swept through the southeastern tip of the Korean Peninsula on Wednesday, with repairs estimated to take several days.
Meanwhile, ‘The 21st BIFF’ will be held until October 15 starting with its curtain raiser movie ‘A Quiet Dream’s premiere.
