While the 'Canneseries X Busan' event of the 20th Busan Contents Market (BCM 2026) was held yesterday (10th) at Exhibition Center 1 of BEXCO, Busan, actress Bae Yoon-kyung attended the round interview and pink carpet event for the film Genfluencer, adding to the heat of the scene.

Genfluencer, starring Bae Yoon-kyung, is an AI hybrid feature film that depicts the story of the protagonist, Lee Jin, who dreamed of becoming an idol but suffered a devastating accident, as she connects to the 'Genfluencer' system to reincarnate the K-pop idol Gina. The work was officially invited to the 'Cannes International Series Festival' (hereafter Canneseries) held in Cannes, France, last April, proving its global competitiveness by receiving passionate interest from local audiences.

In an interview held prior to the official event, when asked if AI could completely replace actors, she expressed her opinion, saying, "AI is one of the many tools used to complete Genfluencer." She added, "AI cannot completely replace humans; it merely serves to deliver the story of the work more effectively."

During the pink carpet that followed, Bae Yoon-kyung's presence stood out. Completing her elegant charm with a beige halter neck dress and long wavy hair, she colored the atmosphere of the venue with her bright smile. Revealing a different charm from her appearance in the work, Bae Yoon-kyung captured the undivided attention of the audience at the event.

As such, attention is focused on the performance Bae Yoon-kyung, who has made her presence known to global audiences by garnering the attention of domestic and international content markets even before its release, will show in Genfluencer.

Meanwhile, the film Genfluencer, starring Bae Yoon-kyung, is scheduled for release this year.
