Jecheon International Music & Film Festival
Jecheon International Music & Film Festival (제천국제음악영화제, JIMFF) strives to be both a celebration of film set in Jecheon City and music for all generations and musical tastes.[1] Jecheon is located in Chungcheongbuk province in central South Korea. It is the Jecheon Music Film Festival held in mid-August every year since 2005. Initially, it was a non-competitive film festival, but from the fifth episode, it is being held as a partial competition. The logo and the Korean logo type are the works of local resident Lee Cheol-soo. In line with the name of the music film festival, most of the films screened are music-centered works. Since some year, musicians have been invited to watch silent films every time. In addition, works such as Once and Kapping Beethoven, which have already been screened and succeeded, or have been officially distributed at the festival, are also coming out. During the festival, the Academy of Motion Picture Music is also held. Until the third episode, there was a seat even if I went and bought a ticket before the screening time, but as the word of mouth went viral, the tickets on the day were sold out immediately after the on-site release began. The 7th Jecheon International Film Festival featured 100 films and 70 performances from 26 countries for six days from August 11-16, 2011, and organized various genres of programs throughout the festival, recording a seat share of 82.1%, and a total of 63 films were sold out, with 130,000 audiences visiting Jecheon to share the festival of film and music. The 13th edition of JIMFF was held from 10 to 15 August 2017. "World Music Film Today", JIMFF's sole competition section, will present films from around the world. The jury members will award two outstanding films with the Grand Prize and Special Jury Prize among the most contemporary selections related to music regardless of genre. Other sections will introduce the various aspects of music cinema and a number of musical performances staged outdoors on the shores of Cheongpung Lake. The Jecheon Film Music Award honors film musicians who have had significant influence on Korean film and music culture and the Jecheon Film Music Academy is a program designed for specialized education about film music. Due to the coronavirus pandemic, which hit the world in 2020, the 16th festival was changed to 100% online screening, following the footsteps of the Jeonju International Film Festival. The 17th edition of The Jecheon International Music and Film was held from 12 to 17 August 2021.[2][3] The World Music Film Flow (International Competition) Best Picture Award was given to A Thousand Rockers, One Band by Anita Rivaroli.[4] The 18th edition of The Jecheon International Music and Film was held from 11 to 16 August 2022.[5] From the 19th Film Festival in 2023, music director Lee Dong-joon was appointed as executive chairman and screened 105 films under the slogan "Da Capo." The 20th film festival in 2024 will begin in early September for the first time, and a K-pop concert has been planned with a budget of at least 700 million won. Film program
