The film 'Focus' has been selected for the official competition section of the 30th Bucheon International Fantastic Film Festival.

'Bucheon Choice Korean: Feature' is the festival's flagship competition section, which annually selects and showcases the most notable Korean genre films. This year, only 10 out of numerous submissions were chosen as competition entries.

I-O Content Group has entered the same competition section for two consecutive years, following last year's 'Gangryeong: Ghost Play' with 'Focus'. 'Focus', making its debut at this festival, is being hailed as a promising new K-horror title.

'Focus' is a mystery horror film depicting bizarre events surrounding an unidentified entity captured on camera. The film goes beyond traditional horror featuring ghosts, prominently presenting the original concept of 'the horror that cannot be escaped once seen'. By using the familiar device of a camera, it transforms 'the gaze' itself into an object of fear, offering a sensibility distinct from existing Korean horror films. The cast includes Andong-gu, Cho Hye-jeong, Lee Kyu-hoe, and Lee Seok-hyeong.

'Focus' is scheduled to meet audiences for the first time through the Bucheon International Fantastic Film Festival on July 3 and July 12.
