The street will be 765 yards long, starting from the AZ Works building and ending in front of the Cinema Center. A wall displaying information about the 100-year history of Korean cinema will be on display.
A media wall made of transparent glass, will entertain visitors by displaying texts, images and videos of some of Korea’s most important films.
