Broadcaster Jang Do-yeon and actor Moon Sang-min will serve as hosts for this year's 'JIMFF' opening ceremony.

The 22nd Jecheon International Music & Film Festival (JIMFF), chaired by Executive Director Jang Hang-jun, announced on the 28th that Jang Do-yeon and Moon Sang-min have been selected as hosts for the JIMFF opening ceremony scheduled for September 3. Jang Do-yeon, who led last year's 21st opening ceremony with witty and stable hosting, will continue in the role for a second consecutive year, while Moon Sang-min joins newly.

Jang Do-yeon said, "I remember laughing much more than expected when I hosted the opening ceremony with Executive Director Jang Hang-jun in Jecheon last year," adding, "It's a relief to be invited again this year."

Moon Sang-min, making his debut as an opening ceremony host, stated, "It is an honor to be able to join many people who love movies and music," and expressed his ambition, "I will do my best to show great chemistry with senior Jang Do-yeon."

Jang Do-yeon has showcased her hosting skills across various programs including web variety 'Salon Drip,' MBC's 'Radio Star,' KBS 2TV's 'Secrets of the Celebrity Soldier,' SBS's 'The Story That Followed Its Tail,' tvN's 'Gugidong Friends,' and ENA's 'Directors Arena.' She won the 'Entertainer of the Year' award at the 2025 MBC Broadcasting Entertainment Awards.

Moon Sang-min, who left a strong impression playing 'Seongnam Daegun' in the 2022 tvN drama 'Shrew,' has displayed broad appeal through appearances in Tving's 'After-School War Activities' (2023), tvN's 'Wedding Impossible' (2024), and Coupang Play's 'Cinderella at 2 AM' (2024).

Recently, he received critical acclaim for his acting as Crown Prince Lee Yeol in KBS 2TV's 'Beloved Thief' (2026) and showed a new side on the big screen through the Netflix film 'Pavane' (2026). He won the Best New Actor award at the 59th Baeksang Arts Awards for TV for 'Shrew' and the Best New Actor award at the 46th Golden Cinematography Awards for 'Pavane.'

Executive Director Jang Hang-jun stated, "With Moon Sang-min joining Jang Do-yeon's proven hosting skills, we expect this year's opening ceremony to be an even more enjoyable time."
