The same exhibition in Korea will be held at the Cinema Center under the title, 'THE ACTOR IS PRESENT,' during the Busan International Film Festival, which will kick off on October 6. Kim Youngjin, the chairperson of KOFIC, explained the purpose of the exhibition, "We expect this exhibition to further solidify the status of the Korean actors who are already world-famous as well as to raise awareness of the Korean actors who have been less exposed to the global film industry by serving as a stepping stone for them to enter overseas stages."

Korean Actors 200 Campaign opened its official promotional page (theactorispresent.kr) in March and released 20 participating actors every week, and opened its official Instagram channel (@koreanactors200_official) last month. 『THE ACTOR IS PRESENT』, a book containing the photos and filmographies of the 200 Korean film actors, is being published in September and delivered to film officials around the world.
