a full text of thank-you notes
Hello, I'm Kim Dongho.
Mr. Kim Goes to the Movie Theater was released on Feb. 19.
I am deeply grateful to all the people who have been with me in both ways until this movie came out to the world.
While I was thinking about starting a documentary, I kept hearing about the crisis in movie theaters after the pandemic. I was curious about the safety and thoughts of movie people who have met all their lives.
Since the first filming began in 2023, I have met more than 100 filmmakers at home and abroad and visited more than 30 theaters. This journey was never just for me. The sincerity of many filmmakers who were willing to take time out and protected the movie and theater in their respective places filled this movie. Every word you shared in front of the camera became the center of the work, and it became a force for the movie to meet the audience again in the theater.
This movie is a movie of all the people who make, protect, and love movies today.
Without your support and solidarity, this movie would not have been able to continue until its release. I was also able to complete this work thanks to the sincere support of Men's Pictures. Men's Pictures' bold decision and PlusM Entertainment's distribution cooperation became the driving force behind the film's production. Once again, thank you very much.
The main characters and owners of this work are the filmmakers who cheered me on for my lack of beginnings and welcomed my interviews and visits. I hope this movie with a precious voice will be a valuable archive of a moment in the movie. I hope that this movie will confirm each other's existence once again and talk about our movies.
We dedicate this movie to both you, your beloved movie, and your movie-conscious audience.
Dear Kim Dongho
