Following this, a host of the country’s leading cinemas, including CGV, BHD, Lotte Cinema, and Beta Cineplex, swiftly used their respective Facebook pages to inform the public of their plans to re-open some of their branches as of May 9.

In line with necessary preventative measures, cinemas nationwide also announced that all guests must have their body temperature measured whilst following social distancing protocols in an effort to ensure the safety of the wider community.
