The economic downturn has led to a rise in the number of "frugal" people watching movies alone at home or outdoors instead of going to the theater.

As the economic downturn continues, the number of practical 'Altteokjok' people who enjoy movies and dramas on mobile devices at their preferred location, such as at home or outdoors, instead of going to expensive movie theaters is increasing.

As consumers, whose pockets have become thinner due to the prolonged economic downturn, seek to enjoy leisure and cultural activities more cheaply by using IT devices, a new word called 'ITtainment', a combination of IT and entertainment, has been created as a play culture using IT devices has developed.

Rather than paying a lot of money to watch a movie at a movie theater at a set time, related IT devices are gaining popularity due to the appeal of being able to watch a movie anytime, anywhere, using IT devices that are easy to install and carry. These devices have the advantage of being small and portable, so you can easily carry them in your bag when traveling, on business trips, or doing other outdoor activities.

What kind of ultra-small IT device can create your own "movie theater" anytime, anywhere?
