Korea Indonesia Film Festival (KIFF) Again Held

 

After the success of the Korea Indonesia Film Festival (KIFF) 2020, this year KIFF will be held again. This annual event organized by the Embassy of the Republic of Korea for the Republic of Indonesia and carried out by the Korean Cultural Center (KCC) Indonesia and CGV Cinemas aims to strengthen Indonesian and Korean cultural exchange activities in Indonesia. KIFF was first held in 2013 and later became an annual event with an average seat occupancy of 70%, taking part in the 'Korean Wave' in Indonesia.

This year's KIFF will take place from October 27 to October 31, 2021. It will be held in two cities, namely Jakarta (CGV Grand Indonesia) and Bandung (CGV Paris van Java). In addition, film screenings are also held on online platforms, in collaboration with Vidio. The series of KIFF events began with an opening held at CGV Grand Indonesia on 27 October and continued with a special screening of the film <Sinkhole>.

The lineup of Korean films that are ready to be screened throughout KIFF are <Hostage>, <Escape from Mogadishu>, <The Box> and others. In addition, for Indonesian films, one of them is <Mekkah I'm Coming>. The lineup of films will be screened at the CGV Grand Indonesia (Jakarta) and CGV Paris Van Java (Bandung) cinemas and on the Vidio platform. However, some titles are only shown in one location/platform.

At the time of writing this article, the government's regulation restricts cinemagoers to those over 12 years old and having a Yellow or Green color status in the CaresLindung application. While in the cinema, visitors are required to wear masks, maintain social distance and comply with health protocols.

In the future, the Embassy of the Republic of Korea to the Republic of Indonesia, KCC Indonesia and CGV Cinemas will be committed to holding cultural activities like this, including the Indonesian Korean film festival to carry out the mission of cultural exchange and friendly relations between the two countries.

Gerakan silhak pada dinasti joseon di korea selatan

Sejak awal abad 17, sebuah gerakan yang menganjurkan Silhak, atau pembelajaran mengenai hal-hal praktis, memperoleh momentum yang cukup banyak diantara cendekiawan-pejabat yang berpikiran liberal sebagai alat untuk membangun suatu bangsa yang modern. Mereka sangat menganjurkan dilaksanakannya perbaikan-perbaikan dalam bidang pertanian dan industri, sejalan dengan dilakukannya reformasi-reformasi menyeluruh dalam hal pembagian tanah. Namun bagaimanapun juga, para bangsawan dari pemerintahan yang konservatif belum siap untuk melakukan perubahan yang sedrastis itu. Pada paruh kedua masa pemerintahan Dinasti Joseon, administrasi pemerintahan dan kaum kelas atas ditandai oleh faksionalisme atau pembentukan golongan-golongan yang muncul berulang-ulang. Untuk membereskan situasi politik yang tidak diinginkan, Raja Yeongjo (1724-1776) akhirnya mengambil kebijakan yang tidak berpihak. Dengan demikian ia mampu memperkuat kembali kewenangan Raja dan menciptakan stabilitas po...

One of the specialties during spring is Jjukkumi. This dish is a dish made from small octopus. Jjukkumi is a favorite in spring, because during this season the octopus is at its fullest and the head tastes delicious due to the abundance of eggs. The egg shape is almost the same size and color as rice, but tastier. Although they both come from octopus, according to their type, Jukkumi is usually processed into 2 dishes, namely Jjukkumi Samgyeopsal Bokkeum and Jjukkumi Shabu-shabu.
