The 24th edition of the festival set to run from April to May 2023.
South Korea’s Jeonju International Film Festival has appointed two co-directors – veteran actor Jung Joonho and former vice director Min Sungwook.
Former festival director Lee Joondong’s three-year contract ended earlier this year after he wrapped the festival’s 23rd edition, which was the first to be held as a fully fledged event since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic.
Organisers stated that Jeonju is aiming to build on its solid cinephile following for its independent and alternative cinema programming but also lower the barrier for wider mass audiences.
