Actress Kim Min-ha has been selected as the sole host for the opening ceremony of the 31st Busan International Film Festival.

On the 31st, her agency Sun Company announced that Kim Min-ha had been chosen to serve as the MC for the festival's opening ceremony.

Having introduced a competitive section last year, the Busan International Film Festival selected Kim Min-ha as the solo host for the opening ceremony to embark on a new journey of growth together.

Since her debut in 2016, Kim Min-ha has steadily built her own filmography across both screen and television. She gained significant attention for portraying the young "Sunja" in Apple TV's globally acclaimed series Pachinko (2022, 2024), delivering a delicate and dense portrayal of a character living a resilient life amidst turbulent times, and went on to win the Newcomer Award in the Television category at the 2022 Asian American Awards.

Following that, Kim Min-ha has continued to expand her filmography across diverse genres, appearing in dramas such as The Light Shop, One Week Before My Death, and Typhoon Company, as well as the film Han Korea.

This selection of Kim Min-ha as host reflects recognition of her unique career path, marked by her ability to faithfully represent the inner lives of characters through in-depth interpretations in each work.

The 31st Busan International Film Festival will be held over ten days from October 6 to October 15 at the Busan Cinema Center.
