July 19, 2010

CJ CGV, the largest theatre chain in Korea, recently converted 58 additional screens to 3D with MasterImage digital 3D cinema systems. In addition to supplying systems for all of CJ CGV's 160 3D theatres, MasterImage 3D has also installed four systems in Korea's Lotte Cinema in Suncheon.

These installations, combined with existing systems at Primus Cinema, Ya Woo Ri Cinemas and more theatres across Korea, bring MasterImage's total to 175 of the country's estimated 250 digital 3D screens, more than 70% of Korea's total 3D exhibition market share.

MasterImage 3D has nearly doubled its worldwide installations in the past 18 months. The company has installed more than 1,800 systems in 40 countries worldwide (approximately 400 in the U.S., 770 in Europe, and 700 in Asia and the rest of the world).
