In March, the lineup includes family-friendly movies such as ‘La La Land’ and ‘Jurassic World 5: Fallen Kingdom.’ The movies for April will be announced later on the website. Admission starts at 6:30 PM on the day of the screening, and the movie begins at 7:30 PM.

The drive-in theater is located at Nohae Neighborhood Park in Junggye-dong. For this event, a giant screen measuring 15m wide and 7m high was installed in the park, creating a dedicated screening area of 3,270㎡ that can accommodate 100 vehicles.

Admission is free, and online advance reservations are accepted on a first-come, first-served basis for 80 cars per day.

Selected participants will be notified individually via text message and announced on the website.

To prevent COVID-19, the dedicated theater will be disinfected before each screening, and operating staff will conduct hand sanitization and temperature checks when vehicles enter the venue.

District Mayor Oh Seung-rok said, “As COVID-19 has prolonged, many people are experiencing mental fatigue. We hope that the movie screenings at the newly prepared drive-in theater will provide a moment of relaxation and healing.”
