베네치아영화제 오늘 개막 황금사자상 노리는 가능한 사랑
Lets start with a Korean film competing at one of the worlds major film festivals!
The 83rd Venice Film Festival kicks off Wednesday local time, on the island of Lido in Venice, Italy. A total of 20 films are competing for the festival’s top prize, the Golden Lion, including Lee Chang-dong’s latest film, “Possible Love”.
It marks the second consecutive year that a Korean film has been selected for the festival’s main competition, following Park Chan-wook’s “No Other Choice” last year.
The Venice Film Festival will run through September 12th with the awards ceremony taking place at the closing ceremony.
“Possible Love” follows two couples who meet while working on a film project. It stars Jeon Do-yeon, Sul Kyung-gu, Jo In-sung and Cho Yeo-jeong.
The film will open in select theaters in Korea on September 23rd before streaming on Netflix on November 6th.
Please keep us updated on the results. Our next story is on BTS!
Los Angeles has officially declared September 1st through the 8th as “BTS Week” to celebrate BTS and their upcoming world tour, “ARIRANG.” To mark the occasion, Los Angeles City Hall was lit up in red, the key color of BTS’s fifth album, “ARIRANG,” on Tuesday. According to BIGHIT MUSIC, the lighting was meant to officially welcome concertgoers visiting the city and symbolize friendship between Los Angeles and BTS.
The Mayor of LA, Karen Bass, said the city is proud to celebrate BTS’s remarkable contributions to global culture and their special connection with Los Angeles.
Previously, El Paso County in Texas, the state of Illinois, and the city of Toronto, Canada, have created a “BTS Week” or “BTS Day” to celebrate the group and their concerts.
An exciting week for BTS fans in LA. And well end with a rookie boy group, AND2BLE.
AND2BLE are making waves, winning seven awards within just four months of their debut. The group won the “Rookie Male Idol of the Year” award at the 2026 Brand of the Year Awards held on Tuesday.
Since their debut in May, AND2BLE have taken home a total of seven trophies from major award ceremonies in Korea and overseas.
The group stood out for their strong performances in fan-voted categories, winning three awards at the Hallyu Expo, where all awards were decided entirely through fan voting.
For a rookie group, turning early buzz into a loyal fanbase is crucial and AND2BLE seem to be doing just that. The group’s debut mini album, “Sequence 01: Curiosity,” sold 730-thousand copies in its first week, placing it among the highest first-week sales figures for a debut album by a K-pop group.
That’s impressive. Looking forward to their activities.
