With large and small concerns in the world and everyday life,
we sail again for Asia's best film festival.

The festival is not about forgetting anxiety and lack for a moment,
but about sharing the wisdom of accompanying it and the willingness to laugh in the midst of it, just like truly great films do.

A film festival where you can smile face to face again,
and a film festival where you look at a distant yet beautiful dream shared together.

I hope the 27th Busan International Film Festival will be such a venue for you.
Again, we invite you to the ocean of cinema in fall.
