Covering an area of 323.52㎡, there are two screening rooms, the first room with 64 seats and the other with 35 seats, and other facilities such as a canteen. The theater also can screen 3D movies.

Tickets sell for 6,000 won (US$5.32) for the general public, 5,000 won for teenagers and groups and 4,000 won for senior citizens and the disabled. Since it is cheap, the public is showing great satisfaction.
