Kim Ki-duk was appointed as the head of the jury of the 41st Moscow International Film Festival.
The organizers of the festival announced on the 11th (local time) on its website that Kim was the chairman of the four competition competition committee.
Kim said, "In 1996, Kim made his debut as a crocodile. He is now the most famous Korean film director, and his films continue to attract the attention of audiences and critics."
He added, "The intense and enigmatic protagonist and the stunning visual element," he said, "his film 'actual situation' was screened at the 2000 Moscow Film Festival."
Last year, Kim stopped actors from actresses as a sex offender.
That's why the appointment of Kim's co-chair of the judging committee is also expected to be controversial.
Last February, Kim's film "People, Space, Time and Humanity" was invited to the opening film of the Yubari Festival in Japan, and a women's organization asked the film festival to cancel the opening film.
Kim recently demanded damages from a media company that reported about the actress who exposed her sexual assault.
The Moscow Film Festival was a historic international film festival that was held in 1935, the old Soviet era, but was not opened to World War II and resumed in 1959.
It is divided into major competitions, documentary and short films.
Thirteen movies were shown in France, Iran, Turkey, Italy, and Russia in the major competitions of the festival this year.
In the film festival, Kang Su-yeon won the Best Actress Award in 1989 for 'Azeezer Barajase' and in 1993, Lee Duk-hwa received 'Best of Best Actor' for 'Living Liladha'.
