Last Friday, Korea’s largest cinema chain CGV announced it would not show “Okja” in its theaters unless Netflix agreed to postpone online streaming until after the film’s theatrical debut. Other major cinema chains, Lotte Cinema and Megabox, have since been deliberating over whether to show the film, they said. Final decisions are to be announced some 10 days before the film’s release, the two companies said.
“The simultaneous online and theater release goes against the order of the global film industry’s distribution structure,” CGV said in a statement. “It not only destroys the ecosystem of the film industry, it is not in accord with fairness in regard to other film businesses and could cause severe confusion,” said CGV, criticizing Netflix’s staunch stance.
Lotte Cinema and Megabox, South Korea’s second and third largest cinema chains, will not screen “Okja,” the Netflix fantasy drama that controversially bowed in competition at the Cannes Film Festival last month. The decision follows a similar refusal this week by CJ CGV, South Korea’s No. 1 exhibition chain, and means that acclaimed director Bong Joon-ho’s film will be shut out of 93% of the country’s theaters.
CGV, Lotte, and Megabox account for 39%, 31%, and 23% of the total screens in South Korea, respectively. If “Okja” plays on the majority of independent screens, it may boost those theaters’ revenues but cause other indie and art house films to be pushed aside.
