Korean idol band INFINITE will meet Japanese K-pop fans through the new concert film at the upcoming Focus on Asia Fukuoka International Film Festival [FIFF].

The idol stars' concert-turned-movie, “INFINITE CONCERT SECOND INVASION EVOLUTION THE MOVIE 3D," has been invited for Special Screening at the 22th FIFF, which runs between September 14 and 23 in Fukuoka, Japan, according to the band’s PR company Lune Communication’s press release Wednesday.

The seven members will attend the greeting session for the first screening of their film, scheduled at T-JOY Hakata theater on Saturday at 6 p.m. in local time, without Japanese subtitles.

The 98-minute 3D movie has also confirmed its release dates in two countries, October 18 in Korea and two days later in Japan, and more opening dates in Hong Kong and Taiwan are to be revealed soon, the officials added.

The film is drawn from hours of their group and solo performances, never-before-seen backstage clips and making-of scenes filmed during their Seoul concert attended by
some 15,000 fans at the Olympic Gymnastics Stadium on April 1.

FIFF, known for introducing outstanding films from Asia since 1991, will kick off its ten-day run with Korean commercial film “Dancing Queen” (2012), starring Hwang Jeong-min and Uhm Jung-hwa.
