Seoul International Film Festival,

About the event

This September, filmmakers & film lovers will gather in one of the world’s most dynamic cities to honor the craft.

The Seoul International Film Festival is a global celebration of films and filmmaking in the heart of Korea.

It is operated by a non-profit organization dedicated to sharing art and culture with the world. If you appreciate what we're doing, please consider sponsoring. There are many fantastic opportunities to promote your business while supporting the arts. 

This year, the Seoul International Film Festival returns for a 10th year in Korea’s capitol. The original incarnation fell victim to hard times in 2008, but SIFF is back & better than ever. Born as SENEF (Seoul Film and Net Festival) in 1999, the original SIFF ran for 9 seasons, attracting more than 30,000 people to the city to celebrate hundreds of films. A decade of Seoul International Film Festival will be marked by a week-long celebration of films, filmmakers, and the people that love them. It will span across the city and feature international showcases, industry panels, social events, cultural exchanges, and a lot of really good movies. We look forward to partnering with your company to ensure the festival will be worth the decade-long wait.

Seoul is the capital and largest city in South Korea. The official name of the city is the Seoul Special Metropolitan City. Metro Seoul is home to 25.6 million people – the 5th most populous in the world. Seoul’s population density is almost twice that of New York and eight times greater than Rome. It is the 4th largest metropolitan economy in the world. Fashion- and technology-forward but also deeply traditional, this dynamic city mashes up temples, palaces, cutting-edge design and mountain trails, all to a nonstop K-Pop beat.

 

Last year, more than 13.5 million foreign tourists visited Seoul. The Seoul Capital Area contains five UNESCO World Heritage Sites: Changdeok Palace, Hwaseong Fortress, Jongmyo Shrine, Namhansanseong and the Royal Tombs of the Joseon Dynasty
