Asia's leading cinema event is embracing the streaming era with the all-new 'On Screen Section,' which will premiere three highly anticipated original Asia series, two from Netflix and one from HBO.
In a coup for U.S. streaming giants, the first edition of the section will showcase just three series — two from Netflix and one from HBO., from A-list Korean director Yeon Sang-ho , will make its Asia premiere at BIFF after prior showing at the Toronto International Film Festival.
The Busan International Film Festival runs Oct. 6-15. Organizers have yet to announce to what extent the festival will be a physical event or an online function.
