GPFC (Gyeonggi Performing & Film Commission)
Introduction

Located in the central west area of Korea, Gyeonggi surrounds the cities of Seoul and Incheon and is bordered by the Yellow Sea to the west. It consists primarily of a fertile plain along the Han River, and maintains numerous historic legacies. Since it is in very close proximity to Seoul, it is the first place many filmmakers look to as a location and production site. GPFC was established in 2005 and since then has been providing one stop services for TV and film shoots in the Gyeonggi province. It has also been expanding its support into other areas including performing arts since 2009.
