Pusan International Film Festival (PIFF)'s fourth Premiere Star Summit event selected Soo-ae ("Sunny") as the female Rising Star and Ha Jeong-woo ("The Chaser") received the male Rising Star award. "Seven Days" director Won Sin-yeon took home the Rising Star award in the director category.

Jeong Kyeong-ho won the best actor nod for "Sunny". Jeong Ryeo-won ("2 Faces of My Girlfriend") picked up the best actress award in the presence of major stars, including Kim Ji-woon, Lee Byeong-Heon, and Jeong Woo-seong, and international stars Li Xioalu and Fan Wing.

HA cemented his name internationally through highly praised independent films which were selected throughout the world by film festivals. His breakthrough was "The Unforgiven" and he topped the box office this year with the sleeper hit "The Chaser", another film coveted by global film festivals.

Soo-ae played Lee Byeong-Heon's character's love interest in "Once in a Summer". In "Sunny" she transforms from a modest quiet young woman into a singer performing in front of soldiers during the Vietnam War while being in search of her missing-in-action husband.

The Rising Star winners were selected through a combination of popular votes and assessments of professionals. Experts of the Korean film industry selected through a poll while audiences were able to cast their vote online.
