As the first festival in Korea to celebrate films about music, the Jecheon International Music & Film Festival (JIMFF) aims to expand this genre of films and contribute to the diversification of film festivals. The main program shows music-themed films and documentaries from around the world, while the music program stages multiple concerts featuring various popular and alternative musicians. In addition, up to 30 aspiring music film directors are accepted into the Jecheon International Music & Film Academy for a chance to learn about music film composition and production from expert music film directors. Moreover, a wide array of local dining experiences, sightseeing options and accommodations are available nearby for an enhanced JIMFF experience.
