Today is Chow Yun Fat Day… From press conferences to hand printing ‘true colors of a hero’ [BIFF Preview]

With the 28th Busan International Film Festival opening on the 4th, let’s take a look at today’s major schedule to enjoy even more.

#. Yoo Seung-ho’s ‘Deal’ released on Wave

Wave’s original ‘Deal’ starring Yoo Seung-ho, Kim Dong-hwi, Yoo Soo-bin, and Joo-young Lee will hold a production presentation on the morning of the 5th.

‘Deal’ is a 10 billion kidnapping thriller about two young men who accidentally kidnap their friend. Wave’s original drama ‘Deal’ is raising expectations, heralding the birth of a new 10 billion kidnapping thriller with its unique subject matter and unpredictable development.

In particular, the explosive energy and acting chemistry of actors Yoo Seung-ho, Kim Dong-hwi, Yoo Soo-bin, and Lee Joo-young, who will realistically present young people entangled in a kidnapping drama, will add to the sense of immersion in the work. Of course, the ingenious setting of ‘trading friends’ and the scale growing out of control. It is expected to captivate viewers by raising the tension to the maximum with the reversal of the ever-changing relationship between yesterday’s friend, today’s hostage, and tomorrow’s accomplice.

#. Today is Chow Yun-fat DAY

On the afternoon of the 5th, a press conference for Chow Yun-Fat, who won the Asian Film Actor of the Year Award, and an open talk & hand printing ‘Chow Yun-Fat’s True Colors as a Hero’ will be held.

Chow Yun-fat, who won the Asian Film Actor of the Year Award at the opening ceremony of the 28th Busan International Film Festival, said, “I started becoming an actor in 1973. He turns 50 this year. 50 years is certainly a long time. When I look back, it feels like yesterday. Thank you Hong Kong TV station. Thank you for allowing me to become an actor. I am also grateful to the Hong Kong film industry. He expressed his feelings, saying, “Thank you for allowing me to go so far.”

In addition, to commemorate this, a corner titled ‘The True Colors of a Hero’ by Chow Yun-Fat was also prepared. This is a special program where you can see Chow Yun-fat’s representative works and new works. Open talks and hand printing events will be held together, and anyone can participate.

#. There will be open talks and outdoor stage greetings in the Busan Cinema Center area.

Open talk and outdoor stage greetings are audience participation programs that all visitors to the Busan International Film Festival can enjoy for free.

#. Buil Film Awards-Marie Claire Asia Star Awards

On the afternoon of the 5th, the ‘2023 Buil Film Awards’ and ‘2023 Marie Claire Asia Star Awards’ will be held.
