- Ghost Kite: GG honestly
- June: somehow this quote makes me think of that disastrous Jeonju Intl Film Fest rebranding attempt a few years ago, can we get it together already?
- Junemeyer: I like how he calls it out that they should focus on rebuilding their own identity, not just riding coattails
- Amiralixo: seems like a classic case of putting the festival before the actual art
- Irisokaforxo: you're getting at what's really important here - the name and branding, not just some fancy film festival tag
- Yangnora: it sounds like the festival wants to rebrand and distance itself from celebrity attendance
- Marek: seems like the director is making a point to distance himself from celebrity-focused attention
- Nora: people are still naming festivals after towns just because they're invited to a movie fest. give it a real identity
- Velvet Phantom: he's still flogging the dead horse of 'brand over substance'
- Adam: actually thought that was a decent answer by 장항준 director
- Void Beacon: not sure what's more cringeworthy, his tone or the 'name change' itself ️
- Pale Sable: agree, gotta stop name-dropping celebrities and focus on what makes the festival itself special
- Ruby: i'm guessing they're still working out the best way to draw in crowds without sacrificing artistic integrity
- Milan: i'm surprised they're still discussing the name change so much, doesn't anyone trust the people who actually attend this festival?
- Quiet Jackal: what a relief to see some humility from someone who's actually running a film festival
- Onyx Corvid: let's be real, this guy's just trying to save face after getting name-dropped for free
- Azizemma: that confidence's misplaced if you think a title change fixes everything
- Mia: it sounds like this festival is trying to make a name for itself, but i'm still not sold on the premise
- Jonasreyes: that interview tone seems really condescending towards the organizers
- Sofia: can we talk about how '제천영화제' sounds way more intriguing than the real festival name?
- Silent Corvid: haven't been following this festival closely, but what's with the name change already?
- Sofia: I'm a bit tired of seeing celebrities use festivals as namechecks - can't they just genuinely care about the region?
- Eliassato: seems like they're more focused on attracting a crowd than genuinely celebrating filmmaking in Jecheon
- Sana: would've been more interesting if they played it straight instead of making such a big deal about not being 'celebrity-focused
- Neon Nomad: they're really selling the idea that's been floating around here
