JAKARTA - Bryan Domani was appointed as the ambassador festival for the Korea Indonesia Film Festival (KIFF) 2023. In addition, one of the films, When Stopping Here directed by Umay Shahab will be aired again for fans of Korean and Indonesian films.
"Obviously it's honorable but nervous because I know there are many actors who are greater than me. But the matter of sustenance is different and certainly happy to be able to represent my film here," said Bryan Domani today, Thursday, October 12.
It was revealed that the offer to become an ambassador had occurred last year, but Bryan, who was busy with other activities, only accepted the offer this year.
Last year I was invited but not a match because of the schedule. When offered then check the date and everything, deal. Okay, go straight away," said Bryan.
Talking about Korean films, Bryan Domani admitted that he had the opportunity to watch South Korean films several times. He also recalled when he starred in the film Miracle in Cell No. 7 which was adapted from the country of ginseng.
"It's a bit biased, but (the favorite Korean film) is Miracle in Cell No. 7. Every time I watch the Korean version until now it's a bit crazy and I think I fell in love with Korean films," said Bryan.
The Moon I also watched because I was forced to watch it because there was an EXO member. Then when I watched it oh I thought it would be about romance, it turned out to be about being stranded on the moon and that's something new. His acting is also cool, and yes, it turns out that Korean films are not just romance," he explained.
Bryan Domani also explained that Korean films and Indonesian films have little resemblance between stories. By joining as an ambassador, he hopes to bring KIFF 2023 to be increasingly known to the public.
"It's a bit difficult to distinguish because the process is different, but I think Korean films and Indonesian films have similarities, the jokes come in, there are only a few elements that are difficult to match," said Bryan Domani.
"As an ambassador, I hope that apart from being able to voice this festival through social media, I will also be open to explaining in detail in person to new audiences," he said.
KIFF 2023 presents 16 Korean and Indonesian films that will air from 19-22 October 2023 in CGV cinemas in four cities: Grand Indonesia - Jakarta, 23 Paskal - Bandung, Marvell City - Surabaya, and Jwalk - Yogyakarta.
