Second Chance for Movieโ Discounts: Remaining Tickets โฃto be Re-distributed
Moviegoers have another โฃopportunity to enjoy discounted tickets,as the Ministry of Culture,Sports and Tourism (MCST) and the Film Promotion โCommittee (FPC) announced aโฃ re-distribution of approximately 1.18 million โขremaining 6,000 wonโค discount vouchers starting at 10:00 โขAM on September 8th. This initiative followsโ a accomplished initial distribution on โJuly 25th, โfundedโข by a second additional budget of 27.1 billion won aimedโ at bolsteringโ public interest and revitalizing the film industry.
The first distribution period, fromโ July 25th to September 2nd, saw a significant increase inโข theater attendance. Daily audiences โaveragedโ around 435,000, representing an 1.8-fold increase compared to the dailyโฃ average between January 1st and July 24th. A โฃpolicy officerโค from the MCST expressed optimism, stating the ministry will continueโ efforts to sustainโค this positive momentum.this second distributionโ focuses on utilizing unused vouchers from the initial release.Discount tickets willโ be available through major chains including CGV, Lotte Cinema, Megabox,โข and Cinecyu (Q) Nuri House, and also a wide range ofโค smaller venues like independant cinemas, art houses, and silver cinemas.
To encourage quicker usage, the re-distribution will operate on a strict first-come, โคfirst-served basis. Vouchers will beโ automatically applied as online membership coupons within each theater’s system.โ Though,โข once a theater’s allocation โคis fatigued, the discount will โคno longer be available, and any remaining unused vouchers in individual member accounts will be forfeited.
The terms of useโ remain largely consistent: โคonline members of multiplexโค theaters โcan utilize up to two discount tickets each,regardless of nationality,provided they haveโ a membership.โฃ Those โคwithout memberships, including foreigners, can access the discount atโ most cinemas, โindependentโ artโ films, and smaller theaters without needing to sign up. The 6,000 won discount applies โequally to both general screenings andโฃ special theaterโ films.
Forโ those unfamiliar with online booking orโ appโฃ usage, a thorough guide window is โคavailable at 070-4027-0279.Further details regardingโ the discountโ tickets can be found on โฃthe official website of โthe Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism.โฃ Movie fans are encouraged to act โฃquickly, as the vouchers are limited and โavailable only while โsupplies last.
