Early Sneak Peek into Nowon's Lotte Cinema

Early sneak peak? well, it's 8 am and I was already @ the cinema... 

not that I wanted it, but I had to.:) Got to reserve 3 tickets for the kids....

and accidentally..bumped into Sully and Mike Wachowsky...^^ 

Why..the rush ....reserving the ticket..in such hour?

first: got no other time to go there...had a class @ 10 pm (Sunday school)...l^^

and..it was already 8.30..and it would take me at least 1 hour to reach campus...

*but..MInion's greeting sort of whiskered away my worries...") 

Done: 3 tickets in hands..and now got a sneak preview of what the cinema looked like.

Gee...I never thought that early morning like 8 am screening or 8.30 screening were packed with people. 

ah..yes..I remember...that movie ticket only costs a mere 5,000 Won for all morning shows.

what a way to entice movie-freaks like me.

Eyra and Freya's Banana Song

I found it so funny to see Eyra and Freya trying sooooo hard to imitate and sing-along the Minions in singing and mumbling one of their hits:) 'Banana Song'

I couldn't stay still. Grabbed my camera and started recording what they were doing.

I guess Minions got them hooked.:-)

Super Bad 2 = Despicable Me 2

I am sure that most of my friends back home would surely not understand what I am talking about when I mention "Super Bad" being the title of an animated movie.

But.."Despicable Me"!! Yess..everyone would nod in agreement that it is a must-watch movie to date. 

My second time already in a week to see the same movie!

first time with the kids: a dubbed version.

2nd time with my wife: the English version.

oh...man..how much would it cost then?

well, if we happen to be able to watch it during morning show,

 it only cost us 5,000 won each!! 

She finds it hilariously funny and entertaining.

Glad that we did watch the movie, right?

Thanks for the swarming army of Minions who have captured our hearts.

And it cost us only 10,000 Won for two.^^

Well, it's an early morning show.

Yes...we were searching hard for the theater that played an English version.

(not dubbed--so to speak)...

Piccadily Lotte Cinema

Never been here before, so the thought of going there would a journey in itself. One thing first is that...this is far from our house.

So why did we go to Piccadily theater Lotte Cinema at Jongno 3-ga? 

First, because we wanted to see Despicable Me 2 which is not dubbed. So, there are some movies with Korean subtitle which means that we're uncomfortable with Korean language, especially my wife.

Actually I already did watch the movie with my kids the other day...of course the dubbed version. 

My kids understand Korean enough to make them associate and mingle themselves with other.  

But my wife hasn't") so, we packed ourselves to see Despicable Me 2 in English.

For me..it's my 2nd time. 

on our way to the underground floor where movies were created....once again we followed the escalator that would lead us to the theater. 

Piccadily Circus? no, of course. THis is just a name of Lotte CInema chains in the country.

Since this was the only cinema that plays Despicable Me 2 in English during morning screening, we didn't wait for long until we ended up being here.

The interior is of course different from that of CGV.  

But I guess since this particular cinema is in downtown...I am sure that many people find it attractive to go to.
