Contributing to the Revitalization of Independent Films: "Creating a Rich Forum for Discussion"
Online video service (OTT) Watcha announced on the 18th that it will provide key information about the films screened at the Jeonju International Film Festival through WatchaPedia. By focusing on detailed information such as synopses and production staff, it plans to contribute to the activation of not only the Jeonju Film Festival but also independent films. WatchaPedia is a movie recommendation service. When users rate movies they have watched, it analyzes their preferences and introduces movies they might like. Seo Yuri, head of the WatchaPedia content metadata team, said, "We will introduce various works that are difficult to encounter outside the Jeonju International Film Festival and create a rich forum for discussion through comments and ratings." Kim Suhyun, director of the Jeonju International Film Festival Content Media Office, said, "The significance lies in allowing movie fans to conveniently find the screened films."
