The 3D catalogue: film cases on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalogue in 3D

The film shelves have a room of their own that you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real films from the same catalogue when you tell them what you feel like watching. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this series is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens

White Nights 3.98 (Korean: 백야 3.98) is a 1998 South Korean television series based on the novel of the same title by Han Tae-hoon and directed by Kim Jong-hak. It aired on SBS from August 31 to November 3, 1998. The series was criticized for director Kim Jong-hak's reliance on self-replication reminiscent of his earlier work Sandglass (1995), the actors' awkward Russian dialogue, computer graphics, and writing, resulting in low viewership ratings.
