[KineJapan] East Asian films at the streamed A2 Film Festival

[U Kim]

Hi Markus,

Thank you for sharing the live stream link of the AAFF with everyone. I
just talked to Im Cheol-min, and he's extremely thankful to you for
advertising East Asian films at the AAFF, including his own, to the
KineJapan members. As you know, his visit to the U of Michigan
was unfortunately cancelled as the outbreak of COVID-19 does not show any
sign of abating. Cheol-min nonetheless expressed his delightedness as his
film was successfully introduced to the general audience through online
streaming. Hopefully, we'll be able to invite him again to Ann Arbor in the
near future.

Best,
Ungsan.
