Park Beom-jin, a junior in the DSU Film Department, has made the final selection for the ‘Shorts Division for Supporting Independent Artistic Film
Production’ for its first 2022 iteration.
Hosted by the Korean Film Council, this ongoing support project has been running since 2013 in order to help develop and bring out a diverse film
culture through supporting the creation of original and experimental visuals, as well as to diversify and revitalize the domestic video production environment.
For this iteration for the first half of 2022, a total of 482 works were submitted to the Council’s production support short film contest, from amongst
which 25 works made the selection on April 27 after document screenings and final interviews.
Park’s winning entry is entitled Super Hero, and is about an elementary school student who often loses in baseball matches with his neighbors who bully him, but who dreams of becoming a baseball player and getting his revenge. In acknowledgement of its high quality and innovation, Park will now
receive financial support of 12 million won through the council
