Busan Market Chief Plots Year-Round ACFM 365 Amid Funding Stalls
Ellen Y.D. Kim, director of the Asian Contents & Film Market (ACFM), has unveiled a vision to transform the four-day event into a year-round digital platform named ACFM 365. The initiative aims to provide continuous networking and database support for the film industry. However, Kim warns that public funding has stalled despite significant growth in attendance and international participation. She stresses that industry infrastructure investment is vital as producers navigate economic challenges and seek to retain global intellectual property rights.
