Chart rank and review

FlixPatrol lists the series third with 442 points; it was second with 525 points on October 9. These are third-party chart points, not viewer totals released by Disney.

In his October 11 South China Morning Post review, Pierce Conran criticized familiar romcom situations and thin characterization. It is one critic’s assessment.

Story and cast

Korean spatial planner Lee Yu-bin loses everything and travels to a Japanese island, where he meets strawberry farmer Shirahama Karin. Ji Chang-wook and Mio Imada lead the cast, alongside Nam Yoon-su and Rinka Kumada.

The Korean-Japanese pairing and the contrast between city and island life anchor the series.

Where to watch

Disney+ Korea lists an October 7 release. Nippon TV names Disney+ and TVer for Japan, and Disney’s official U.S. lineup lists an October 7 premiere on Disney+ and Hulu.

Availability, subscription plans and released episodes can differ by territory.

What the 50,000 covers

The count covers October 6–10 and includes outdoor Open Talks, stage greetings and Talk-to-Talk sessions as well as indoor Cine Classes and Actors’ House events. It is separate from total screening admissions.

The release does not say whether people who attended several events were counted once.

Talk-to-Talk, Oct. 12–14

The Korean-language Talk-to-Talk series at Hanmac Smooth Lounge features Kim Guk-hee at 14:00 and Kim Jae-chul at 17:00 on October 12, and Gong Min-jeung at 14:00 and Park Ji-yeon at 16:00 on October 13.

Im Sung-jae appears at 16:00 and Kim Jun-han at 17:00 on October 14. Each conversation is scheduled for 30 minutes. All times are Korea Standard Time.

Shim Eun-kyung, Oct. 14

Shim will discuss her experience working in Korea and Japan from 19:00 to 20:00. The Korean-language session is in the fourth-floor Book Cafe Lounge at Dongseo University–Kyungnam College of Information & Technology’s Centum Campus. Tickets are KRW 10,000 under booking code 826.

Seating is unassigned, parking is not provided and only water in a capped bottle may be brought in. Availability and changes are posted by the official ticket service.

Red Thread screenings canceled

The film, withdrawn over a technical problem, has had its general screenings on October 12 at 15:30 (code 510) and October 13 at 10:00 (code 633) canceled. BIFF says those bookings are canceled automatically with full refunds.

The October 9, 23:59 Midnight Passion 2 slot (code 168) was replaced with Spirit Guardians: The Last Secret of The First Emperor, The Scar-Faced Cat: Way of Asura and L’Autre, with a full refund after the screening. Whether individual refunds have been paid was not confirmed.

Earlier schedule changes

Shin Min-a’s October 10 Actors’ House (code 806), at the ninth-floor Culture Hall in Shinsegae Centum City, was moved to 16:30–17:30 from 17:00–18:00.

For The Fire Within You, the October 10, 10:00 slot (code 273) and October 11, 15:30 slot (code 369) lost their audience Q&As, not their screenings.

Runs through Oct. 15

The 31st edition opened at 18:00 on October 6 at the Busan Cinema Center Roof Theater with its ceremony and The Table: Day and Night. The official overview lists 316 films: 247 official selections from 59 countries and 69 Community BIFF titles.

That programme size and the event-attendance figure measure different things. Changes for the remaining days are posted in festival notices.

Story and crew

Kim plays corporate heir Baek Ho-rang, who has an artificial heart, and Chae plays screenwriter Na Bo-bae. A deal to recharge his heart’s battery brings them together.

The series is based on a Korean web novel, directed by Park Soo-won and written by Song You-chae.

Ten episodes

Netflix’s Korean title page lists Episodes 1–10 with synopses and running times. The video is Netflix Korea’s official teaser, posted on September 10.

Cinecube schedule for October 9

Cinecube scheduled Screen 1 showings at 1:45 PM and 8:10 PM on October 9. The film runs 100 minutes and is rated for all ages.

These times apply to October 9 only.

The story

The film follows Fujino and Kyomoto, two girls connected through manga. The video is Megabox’s official main trailer.

Two title tracks

‘Puzzle Piece’ deals with the unfinished emotions of youth. ‘Kick Off The Wall (Feat. iann dior)’ is built around the idea of kicking through obstacles.

The pairing gives the EP both a reflective side and a high-energy one.

Credits and tracklist

JYP Publishing credits Kyehoon, Donghwa, Donghyeon and Minje with lyrics and composition on several tracks. The EP has eight songs.

The video is the official ‘Puzzle Piece’ music video released by JYP Entertainment.
