The Busan International Film Festival is struggling with whether to hold the event offline due to the resurgence of COVID-19 infections.

A representative from the Busan International Film Festival told Maeil Business STAR TODAY on the 31st,

"We are currently discussing internally the possibility and direction of holding the film festival. A final decision will be made at an extraordinary general meeting on September 11th," they revealed.

The Busan International Film Festival is reportedly struggling with whether to hold the event offline due to the resurgence of COVID-19 infections.

Currently, the Seoul metropolitan area has been raised to social distancing level 2.5.

Festivals such as the Jeonju International Film Festival, held in the first half of the year, were canceled offline and held online.

Attention is focused on what decision the Busan International Film Festival will make.

This year's Busan International Film Festival is scheduled to be held from October 7th to 16th.
