Naver is participating as an official sponsor of the 31st Busan International Film Festival, which runs from October 6 to 15, expanding the festival experience both online and offline through various services including streaming, short-form content, restaurant recommendations, and on-site payments.
On October 6, Naver announced its sponsorship of the festival, providing live broadcasts through the streaming platform Chijijik, on-site content via Naver Clip, restaurant information through Naver Map, and payment options with Naver Pay.
Chijijik will exclusively live stream the red carpet and opening ceremony of the Busan International Film Festival on October 6. The closing ceremony on October 15, along with major outdoor events such as stage greetings and open talks during the festival, will also be broadcast live.
Additionally, Chijijik will feature 'watch together' content, allowing users to view the opening and closing ceremonies and outdoor events in real-time with other film fans, enjoying key moments together.
Naver Clip will showcase short-form content capturing the festival atmosphere. Clip creators will visit Busan to introduce key festival locations and review films being screened at the Busan International Film Festival.
Naver has been supporting content creation by expanding opportunities for clip creators to participate in major domestic and international events, including the Busan International Film Festival.
On Naver Map, a special section called 'BIFF Staff Recommended Restaurants' will feature 49 eateries in Busan recommended by festival staff. Visitors who reserve and review these restaurants through Naver during the festival can earn rewards of up to 4,000 won. Information about key event venues will also be available on Naver Map.
To enhance on-site payment convenience, an integrated offline terminal called 'N Pay Connect' will be available at the official merchandise shop, market, and major event venues, allowing the use of Naver Pay's facial recognition payment service, 'Face Sign.'
