A total of 264 submissions were made from 21 countries including the U.S., France, Canada, Italy, Spain, Iraq, Israel, Iran, South Africa, Romania and Indonesia.

Sixteen works have been selected to be displayed and screened at the ninth annual Culture Communication Forum Night at the Grand Salon of Grand Hyatt Hotel in Seoul on Aug. 29.

The Excellence Award went to Oh Kweon-yeol's "Morning Walk," a photo of the stonewall walkway of thatched-roof houses at Naganeupseong; a Korean fortress in Nagan-myeon, Suncheon, South Jeolla Province; and to Min Kyoung-chan's "Alley Talk," showing an alley in Incheon, where grandmothers sit under a mural of sunflowers.
