4DX is a motion picture technology owned and developed by South Korean company CJ 4DPLEX, a part of the CJ Group. 4DX allows a motion picture presentation to be augmented with environmental effects such as seat motion, wind, rain, fog, lights, and scents along with the standard video and audio. As such, theaters must be specially designed for and equipped with 4DX technology. The experience was introduced commercially in 2009 with the release of ''Journey to the Center of the Earth'' in Seoul, South Korea. In 2015, there are more than 239 4DX auditoriums in 39 countries. 〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Watching movies in four dimensions )〕 ==History== 4DX was launched by South Korean theater chain, CJ CGV with the release of New Line Cinema's ''Journey to the Center of the Earth'' in Seoul in 2009.
