Lim Young-woong concert film hits number one in ticket reservations
The film capturing singer Lim Young-woong's second stadium concert has claimed the top spot in overall ticket reservation rates immediately upon opening bookings.
The concert film 'LIM YOUNG WOONG | IM HERO THE STADIUM 2' reached first place in overall ticket reservation rates on the 9th, ahead of its scheduled release on the 18th. The film features high-definition footage of the singer's September concert, which drew a cumulative audience of 1 million people.
The film capturing singer Lim Young-woong's second stadium concert live performance has begun its takeover of the screen, reaching the top of the overall ticket reservation rates immediately upon the opening of reservations. According to the Korean Film Council integrated computer network and CGV counts (as of 10:30 AM), the film 'LIM YOUNG WOONG | IM HERO THE STADIUM 2', which is set to be released on the 18th, has taken first place in overall ticket reservation rates.
Following its rise to first place immediately after reservations opened on the 9th, surpassing strong competitors, the momentum is increasing as reservations for special IMAX screenings also opened on this day. This work brings the live concert footage from this past September—which achieved a cumulative audience of 1 million people—to the large screen with 3D sound, looking back on the 10-year narrative walked alongside the Heroic Age.
The film is drawing particular attention as it includes the full stages of 'IM HERO 10', the special digital album of Lim Young-woong, which has evolved across various genres. As a stage celebrating his 10th anniversary since debut and his entry into his second stadium, the film captures in high definition the large-scale stage equipment and direction, live band performances, drone shows and fireworks decorating the night sky, and the waves of sky-blue light covering the stadium.
The screening formats have also become more diverse. In addition to standard 2D screenings, special screenings have been confirmed, including the first attempt for a Lim Young-woong film at CGV Yongsan I'Park Mall using 4-sided SCREENX and overwhelming scale IMAX screenings, leading to continuous reservations for multiple viewings. Proving powerful ticket power beyond the music industry and onto the screen, the film will meet audiences at CGV theaters nationwide starting on the 18th.
