Busan Film Fest kicks off amid foreseen, unforeseen complications

[1] The 21st edition of the Busan International Film Festival, Asia’s largest, kicked off Thursday amid a number of complications both unexpected and long-standing -- outdoor facilities damaged by Wednesday’s Typhoon Chaba and local filmmakers’ ongoing boycott over BIFF’s artistic autonomy.

*kick off: 시작하다
*complication: 합병증, 문제
*long-standing: 오랫동안에 걸친 drawn out
*outdoor facilities: 외부 시설 (vs indoor facilities)

*venue: (콘서트, 스포츠경기, 회담, 파티) 등의 장소
*host: 주최하다. 동사로도, 명사로도 쓸 수 있음.
*sweep through: (바람, 유행, 역병 따위가) 휩쓸고 지나가다
*estimated to take: 예상 소요 시간

[3] All events scheduled to take place at BIFF Village, including outdoor interviews and hand-printing ceremonies, have been moved to the Busan Cinema Center, BIFF’s central venue. Festival organizers, breathing a sigh of relief that the typhoon narrowly missed BIFF’s opening day, are currently working to ensure all events will occur according to schedule, a BIFF official said. All international guests have arrived safely and will be attending events as scheduled, the official added.

*breathing a sigh of relief: 안도의 한숨을 내쉬다
*narrowly missed: 아슬아슬하게 빗나갔다
