North Korea puts ‘Rungna 4D Simulation Cinema’ in spotlightState run international broadcasting services shows video of a 4D cinema which opened last year
North Korean state media have released an in-depth promotional video highlighting visitor experiences at the recently opened Runga 4D Simulation Cinema. The video – which shows visitors being vigorously thrown around as they watch computer generated shark attacks, military battles and dinosaur scenes – was published last Thursday by Voice of Korea, a foreign-facing international short-wave broadcasting service that occasionally publishes multi-media content. “The glasses, 3D scenes, music effect, and rhythmic facilities enable the viewer to feel a vivid reality,” Ri Un Hyang, a Runga People’s Pleasure Ground caretaker says in the promotional video.
