The 22nd Busan International Film Festival was held from October 12 to October 21, 2017 at the Busan Cinema Center and hosted by Jang Dong-gun and Im Yoon-ah. A total of 300 films from 75 countries were screened at the festival, including 100 world premieres and 29 international premieres.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]
On October 15, 2017, President Moon made a surprise visit to the festival, promising noninterference and support for the festival. He also hopes BIFF will restore to its former glory and into a more prominent international film festival.[9]
A new Kim Jiseok Award was setup to commemorate the late Kim Jiseok, the Deputy Director and Program Director of Busan International Film Festival, who died in May 2017. Kim, also a founding member of the Busan International Film Festival, had since 1996, devoted himself to developing the Busan International Film Festival into a world-renowned film festival in Asia.[10][11]
