Many actors leading Korean films, dramas, and stages, including actor Park So-dam, Lee Je-hoon, Park Jung-min, Byun Yo-han, and Kim Go-eun, are also from this school.

The "Han Ye-jong Film and Graduation Film Festival" has been a meaningful place where the fruits of education and creation meet the world for the first time, and where young creators' experiments and possibilities can be seen closely. The festival will introduce a total of 71 works submitted in the film and art history and professional history courses of the Korea Film Institute, bringing together various eyes and challenges from future filmmakers.

Park So-dam's participation on this stage is expected to be symbolic support and motivation for junior artists. Park So-dam also has a deep meaning to participate in this experience, recalling that this experience in school was a moment that broadened her perspective as a creator.

Park So-dam said, "The time I spent at Han Ye-jong was the most important foundation that made me what I am now," adding, "I want to add even a little help to this film festival where my juniors can tell their own stories to their heart's content."

"Actor Park So-dam's participation is exactly in line with the value of 'the possibility of young creators' that the festival aims for," the festival said. "It will deepen the meaning of the festival by adding not only his influence as an actor, but also his sincerity and respect, which is a model for his juniors as a senior artist."

In response, Park So-dam will participate in various programs such as posters and opening ceremonies as a role of announcing the film festival, empowering young people in the Korean film industry.
