BURBANK, Calif., Oct. 29, 2025 -- CJ 4DPLEX, a worldwide leading producer of premium film formats and cinema technologies, and Showtime Cinemas, part of the Showtime Group and the second largest exhibitor in Taiwan, today unveiled their new flagship location at Taipei Dome featuring two state-of-the-art, 270-degree panoramic SCREENX auditoriums and two ULTRA 4DX auditoriums, CJ 4DPLEX's super premium multisensory cinema experience.
The new Taipei Dome flagship represents a major milestone in the expanded partnership between CJ 4DPLEX and Showtime Group, showcasing the first-ever installation equipped with both SCREENX and ULTRA 4DX at this scale under one roof in Taiwan. Situated within the city's premier cultural and entertainment hub, the cinema complex features 14 auditoriums with 1,750 seats, offering moviegoers unparalleled amenities surrounded by vibrant retail, dining, and hospitality facilities.
"By partnering with CJ 4DPLEX to expand premium format offerings in Taiwan, we are defining a new era of moviegoing and reaffirming our dedication to innovation and world-class experiences for audiences throughout Asia," said Willy Liao, General Manager, Showtime Group.
"We are thrilled to collaborate once again with Showtime Group, one of Taiwan's leading and most forward-thinking exhibitors, on this landmark project," said Jun Bang, CEO of CJ 4DPLEX. "The launch at Taipei Dome represents a major milestone for both companies – a flagship destination that showcases the full strength of our partnership and our shared commitment to delivering world-class, next-generation cinema experiences."
"As one of the most prominent entertainment destinations in Asia, Taipei Dome provides the perfect stage for this groundbreaking launch," said Don Savant, Chief Business Officer, CJ 4DPLEX. "This marks the first-ever deployment of dual ULTRA 4DX and SCREENX super-premium theaters under one roof – a major milestone for our partnership with Showtime and a defining moment for the Taiwanese cinema industry."
SCREENX is the world's first multi-projection cinema that enhances the traditional movie-going experience by seamlessly extending the screens onto the surrounding walls of the auditorium. This revolutionary approach offers viewers a captivating 270-degree panoramic viewing adventure.
ULTRA 4DX is the powerful combination of CJ 4DPLEX's super premium immersive theater technologies, merging the 270-degree panoramic SCREENX and the multisensory 4DX formats into one auditorium – creating a never-before-seen experience for cinemagoers.
The launch of the Taipei Dome flagship coincides with the release of G-Dragon: Übermensch, the highly anticipated concert film showcasing the K-pop superstar's first world tour in eight years. Every defining moment of his legacy comes vividly to life on the big screen—from anthems like "Crooked", "Power", and "Heartbreaker" to an all-star guest lineup featuring Taeyang, Daesung, CL, and more. The all-encompassing SCREENX experience brings fans closer than ever to the icon of a generation.
