The Korean Cultural Centre (KCC) in Nigeria and the Korean Film Council (KOFIC) from Sept. 17-19 co-hosted the Korean Film Festival at Silverbird Cinemas in Abuja.

The festival opened on Sept. 17 with "The King's Warden" and the opening ceremony. Israel Kashim Audu, director of the Nigerian event Kaduna International Film Festival, spoke about cinema's broader role, describing film as more than entertainment and highlighting its ability to transcend boundaries, connect people, preserve culture and tell stories.

The three-day program on Sept. 18 continued with the historical drama "The Book of Fish" and the comedy "Move the Grave." The next day, audiences watched works from the KCC's Short Film Contest alongside Korean shorts, followed by the fantasy romance film "Lucky Chan-sil."

On the final day, viewers attended an interactive session to share their reactions to the films, concluding the three-day event.
