The Busan International Film Festival started here in 1996. Hand-prints of film people are pressed into the pavement, with cinemas and food lanes down both sides. The star snack is seed hotteok, a pancake packed with sunflower seeds and nuts, handed over piping hot. Walk toward Gwangbok-ro and you reach a fashion strip and the gate of Yongdusan Park. In the evening, tent stalls line up for food and drinks.
