Hello, this is SERNO.
This September, MBC will host the **2025 Seoul Global AI Film Festa (SGAFF)** —
an event dedicated to building a new creative ecosystem where generative AI meets culture and art.

I only heard about it a few days ago, right in the middle of rebuilding my website.
Since then, my life has been nothing but frantic preparation.
The festival’s slogan — *“AI and Human in Harmony, Dancing Media”* —
couldn’t align more closely with my own beliefs.
For me, AI is no longer just a tool;
it is a creative partner — one that stands beside me, not behind me.
The only regret is timing.
I learned of the event too late to enter the film category,
so I’m pouring everything into the music video section instead.
Day and night, between my other commitments,
I’m secretly editing, cutting, and building every frame.
Today, the organizers announced that the submission deadline
has been extended from August 17 to August 20.
I had been racing toward the 17th,
so the news came as both a relief and a strange emptiness —
like crossing a finish line only to find out the race isn’t over yet.
Still, I resonate deeply with the spirit of this festival.
It reflects exactly where the world is heading.
I believe that one day,
the music ZEST and I create will find its way into many hearts.
Until August 20, I’ll be giving everything I have
to bring that vision a little closer.
