The vision of the TIMF Foundation is to grow a small port town, Tongyeong to the world's famous music festival city. Since its birth, TIMF has been trying to serve as a bridge connecting music from Western and
Eastern together. Furthermore, TIMF will also grow to become an international cultural event standing
as a core foundation for the world and Asian music world.
In the year of 2000, Tongyeong International Music Festival started with its name,
"Tongyeong Contemporary Music Festival" for two years. Establishing the Tongyeong International Music
Festival Foundation in 2002, the name has been changed to "TIMF" and TIMF was reborn to be the world
class festival. Since last year, TIMF has been evolved as a yearly based musical event
in a seasonal term and the foundation has expanded its role as an entity fulfilling its missions to
contemporary and classical music world with the name "TIMF."
Furthermore, the TIMF Foundation will be reborn as an operation principal of the new concert hall
in Tongyeong and the festival will definitely make prosperous results with the new hall under the name of
"TIMF" in the near future.

The TIMF does not stand for a festival held once a year for ten days anymore. A TIMF's year will be consists of several festival seasons presenting different styles and colors of music. The TIMF 2005 has two seasons, Spring Season & Autumn Season, and several Seasonal Events including International Isang Yun Academy.

TIMF remarks a brand integrating cultural projects and events presented by the TIMF Foundation and the foundation is a principal operating the brand, "TIMF."
TIMF Foundation will be a core of Asian market in the International performing arts market with its brand "TIMF" by;
1) Growing the city of Tongyeong as a Mecca of the music world.
2) Revitalizing the domestic performing market.
3) Overcoming the limitation of the recent Korean performing arts industry that tends to focus only on the import market in international music and culture exchanges by presenting young and talented musicians developed though Tongyeong International Music Festival and Gyeongnam International Music Competition to the International music market.

In the near future, the vision of TIMF Foundation will be carried out in a new concert hall which will be built in front of beautiful seaside of Tongyeong. By benchmarking a year-long festival such as Lucerne Festival in Switzerland, the foundation has applied seasonal term to the festival since 2004 and this could be understood as a trial with the intension considering seasonal operation of the new hall and festival.
