Busan Postpones Appointment of Festival Director, Sets Pak Dosin in Deputy Role
Lurching from last year's crises, the Busan film festival has postponed the appointment of a festival director and put Pak Dosin in a deputy role.
“This decision aims to allocate resources effectively by reducing the administrative processes and time needed to elect the festival director and enabling undivided attention towards successfully organizing the 29th Busan International Film Festival. However, after the second round of open recruitment, the committee announced the absence of sufficient candidates and consequently submitted a statement to the secretariat notifying their dissolution,” the festival said. “Although many individuals who have achieved outstanding works in various fields, including the film industry, participated in the first and second rounds of recruitment, given the Busan International Film Festival’s aspirations for a new leap and strategic direction, it has been challenging to identify suitable candidates at this time.”
