The pandemic affected festival organizers’ plans this year. For example, Busan created a hotline to the city’s quarantine experts in case of an outbreak and limited visitors to the opening ceremony to people who had received negative PCR test results within 72 hours or those who had completed vaccinations 14 days prior to the event. Busan’s opening ceremony was the first international event in Korea since the start of the pandemic — and more than 10,000 festival-goers attended.
In some areas, it was clear the festival was still getting back on its feet. The lack of training for festival volunteers made it difficult for some visitors to get necessary information on site, and two press conferences were postponed at the last minute. On Monday, the screening of Edgar Wright’swas interrupted two minutes after it started due to technical issues. It continued after 50 minutes, but the audience received a full refund.
