The Season Pick Film Club opened applications for its sixth cohort, inviting university students across Seoul to join a seasonal screening community focused on healing-themed cinema. The organization brings together film enthusiasts who prefer viewing movies with peers rather than alone, offering bi-weekly screenings, festival trips, and neighborhood explorations.
Sixth cohort focuses on healing cinematic works
Activities for the sixth cohort center on a seasonal theme of “healing,” featuring gentle and distinct cinematic works rather than intense conflict or suspense. The club organizes bi-weekly gatherings divided into two formats. Members attend theatrical runs of newly released films during October, November, and December. The group also gathers in rented screening spaces for curated seasonal picks.
Festival Attendance and Cultural Outings
Beyond standard screenings, the club coordinates group excursions to major industry events and cultural sites. Members participate in the Busan International Film Festival and outdoor screening events. Additional itinerary items include visits to film-related locations such as themed cafes, exhibitions, pop-up stores, and actual movie shooting sites. In October, the club’s schedule features theatrical movie viewings alongside a visit to the Animage and Studio Ghibli exhibition.
Seoul university students apply for 20 spots
Recruitment targets university students in the Seoul area, including those on leave or with graduation postponed. Organizers set the recruitment number at 20 participants, with enrollment remaining open until capacity fills. Members share costs evenly for venue rentals and ticket purchases on a 1/N basis. Interested applicants can submit their details through the official Google Forms application link provided by the organizers.
Student Leadership and Club Operations
The club is managed by student executives. Prospective members can review activity logs and visual updates through the club's official Inpock page.
