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).
