Summary
- Kim Minha will be the sole host for the Busan International Film Festival opening.
- She is recognized for her role as young Sunja in the Apple TV series Pachinko.
- BIFF runs from October 6-15 in Busan, South Korea.

South Korean actress Kim Minha has been selected to host the gala opening ceremony for this year's Busan International Film Festival (BIFF). The event, set to commence on October 6, will feature Kim as the sole host, a departure from the customary practice of having two Korean stars.
Kim Minha gained global recognition for her performance as young Sunja in Apple TV's "Pachinko," a role that has positioned her as a prominent young talent. She has since appeared in several other productions, including "Light Shop" and "Hana Korea." BIFF organizers cited her 'depth and emotional precision' and 'poised yet spirited presence' as reasons for her selection.
The 31st edition of BIFF is scheduled to take place from October 6 to October 15 in Busan. The festival continues its efforts to build momentum for its main competition section, aiming to establish the Busan Awards Grand Prize as a premier cinema honor in Asia.
