The prologue to 'Korean-style dome media' that will go beyond the Las Vegas 'Sphere'

An immersive media space comparable to 'Sphere', a massive performance venue and a landmark of Las Vegas, will be built entirely with homegrown technology. A huge project that will change the paradigm of next-generation screening spaces has officially entered full swing.

Megabox selected as the final host organization for a national project

'Megabox' was selected as the final host organization for the 'Korean-style Dome Media' national project led by the Korea Creative Content Agency, Megabox said on the 8th. Dome media is a futuristic screening space that delivers overwhelming immersion through a massive screen that wraps around viewers in 360 degrees. 'Sphere' in Las Vegas and the immersive performance venue 'Cosm' in Los Angeles are cited as representative success cases, and they have rapidly emerged as a core trend across the global entertainment industry.

Investing 8.2 billion won to build an industry-academia-research alliance for 'digital sovereignty'

Leading the 300-trillion-won global 'K-Culture' market

'Kim Bongjae' 'Megabox' multi-plex headquarters director cited establishing 'digital sovereignty' as the key value of this project. He said, "We are deeply in agreement with the intent to secure 'digital sovereignty' by developing an independent platform and technology that can realize 'K-Culture' content in the best environment," adding, "We will also take on a key role in leading the global 'K-Culture' market, estimated to be on the scale of 300 trillion won, with purely domestic technology."
