Busan is a second largest city in Korea. As a major port city, there is a myriad
of sea routes offering gateways to Japan and to the rest of the world. Busan
also boasts scenic visions of nature with Nakdonggang River flowing in the west
adjacent to the ocean at the south. Its landscape includes a coastline with fine
beaches, scenic islets and tall mountains. The Pusan* International Film
Festival (PIFF) is held annually and attracts movie buffs enthusiasts from all
over the world.
* Under the new romanization system promulgated in 2000,
Pusan is now spelled Busan. The film festival was established before the system
took effect, thus the original spelling "Pusan" is still employed (i.e. Pusan
International Film Festival).
