Support Program for Hub-Library for Korean Film Studies
The Korean Film Council provides Korean film-related materials published in domestic or foreign countries as well as Korean film DVDs to major libraries overseas in order to support Korean Film Studies scholars and students. It also hopes that this support program will help broaden the base of ordinary audiences overseas for Korean films.
A library or research center of a university or college overseas that offers both Film Studies and Korean Studies are most eligible to apply for this program, and other institutions related to Korean film studies also can apply for the support program. After receiving applications, KOFIC will review each application and decide which libraries or institutes to support, in careful consideration of : geographical importance, activities regarding film studies, value of the University, and the prospects for development of Korean Film studies as well as management & usage plan of the provided materials.
