The Jeonju International Film Festival is offering a cinema package program it's calling “Jeonju Tour With a Movie,” featuring a guided tour of the much loved Jeonju Hanok Village in Jeonju, North Jeolla Province.

The package is part of the “Jeonju Cinetour With Falling in Jeonju,” an event that rescreens a selection of films from the Jeonju IFF that took place in the spring.

"Jeonju Tour With a Movie" will screen three films from the festival for 15,000 won ($11) each.

Meanwhile, Lee Joon-ik’s “The Book of Fish” will screen Saturday at the Jeonju Korean Liquor Museum. While the movie is being screened, traditional alcohol and snacks will be offered.
