Cine21 and Korean film magazine market

The two monthly film magazines, "Kino", issued its first number in May 1995, and "Premiere", got license permission from United States in December 1995, triggered Korean film magazine market boom. Before the two magazines, there were "Screen", issued its first number March 1984, and "Road Show". In October 1999, weekly film magazine "Preview" was published, however, it disappears after the 4th issue. The film magazine market transformed its type as a weekly magazine from monthly magazine through the appearance of "Cine Bus", issued its first number on 2 September 2000, and "Film 2.0" started on 19 December 2000. In the year 2001, "Movie Week" set their price to 1000 Won and centered public's attention. The weekly magazines became active throughout the market, however, the monthly magazines kept on downsizing. To the last, the first movie magazine "Kino" has ceased publication in 2003 and "Road Show" also discontinued in 2003. "Premiere" changed its type to two-weekly publishing magazine. The only monthly film magazine "Screen" discontinued in 2010, December. "Movie Week" merged with "Magazine M", running by Joongang Newspaper, one of the biggest press in Korea. Nowadays, only two film magazines are on the road : "Cine 21" and "Magazine M".
