"4DX with ScreenX" is a blend of the two of the most advanced theatre technologies on the market today: the motion seating and environmental effects of 4DX that synchronize with the action on-screen and the ScreenX format, which projects onto the main screen and the theatre walls, bringing moviegoers beyond the frame of the movie screen. As of July 2019, "4DX with ScreenX" will have been installed in 15 screens around the world, including 7 in China, 5 screens in South Korea, 2 in France and Japan's first "4DX with ScreenX" to open this month.

"The '4DX with ScreenX' auditoriums are on their way to becoming a trend in the Chinese cinema industry for their innovativeness and superb performance in the box office," said Nelly Jin, Partner of iResearch Consulting, Director of iResearch Academy. "We are delighted to present this award to CJ 4DPLEX for their insight. We believe the innovative technology has advanced the movie-viewing culture in China."

"After the success of 4DX and ScreenX, we are elated to see '4DX with ScreenX' grow and be recognized by the iResearch Awards as a breakthrough cinematic platform," said JongRyul Kim, CEO of CJ 4DPLEX. "Our goal has been to break free of tradition and create unparalleled cinema-going experiences and so we are incredibly honored for this award and will continue to expand and share this unique and innovative technology with audiences around the world to experience."

"4DX with ScreenX" has received an overwhelmingly positive response from the movie entertainment industry within a year of its launch. Featuring a stylish design and a higher level of multi-sensor immersion, the format received global recognition for its one-of-a-kind movie-viewing experience. The cutting-edge format has been honored by Fast Company in the 'Live Events' category this year, making the list of 'The World's Most Innovative Companies for 2019', and was awarded Silver in the Media, Visual Communications & Entertainment category at the Edison Awards last year.

China is the largest and fastest growing market for "4DX with ScreenX" with the first site opening in October 2018 at Shanghai Pudong district. Currently there are 7 sites with this innovative technology with CGV China - Shanghai Pudong, Shanghai Qibao, Ningbo Yinzhou, Hangzhou Bingjiang, Hangzhou Letigang, Chengdu Jinniu and Nanjing Huacai Tiandi.
