There are two event listings with some duplication of data. IMDb should probably decide how this festival should be listed.

Hi Upload YF and Peter -

When a festival/event changes their name, we will list the event on the site separately under the old name and the new name, the awards and nominations will then be listed under the event that they pertain to.

So in this case, it is correct that we have event listings for:

Pusan International Film Festival  and   Busan International Film Festival

If there is award data listed under the old event that belongs to the new event, that information will need to be removed and submitted to the correct new event listing.

Let us know if you have any questions!

@Michelle Festival editions before 2011 should be deleted on the Busan International Film Festival page, and post-2011 editions on the Pusan ​​International Film Festival page, as many films have double nominations/awards at the same festival on their individual pages.

Another 2 months.

Btw, Busan International Film Festival is one of the largest film festivals in the world (probably in Top 15).

Hi plur62 -

My sincere apologies for the delayed reply.  There is a ticket filed for the clean-up of all the pre-2011 data to be removed from the Busan International Film Festival page.  As soon as I have an update on the status of the clean-up I will relay that information here.

Thanks again!

Hi All -

Thanks again for reporting - I wanted to provide an update on the festival data clean-up.  We are so sorry it has taken this amount of time to resolve, due to our backlog we don't have the resources to work through the clean-up at this given time, for this reason we are closing this thread but know that we are still tracking the issue and will pick it up when we have the bandwidth to handle it.
