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

《흐르는 것이 세월뿐이랴》는 1999년 1월 4일부터 1999년 1월 26일까지 방영된 MBC 월화 미니시리즈인데 연초부터 눈물나는 줄거리로 마음을 무겁게 한 데다가 '옛 연인' '이혼' 등 한국 드라마의 단골메뉴에서 벗어나지 못해 신선함이 떨어졌다는 지적이 있었다. 한편, 박근형이 분한 박민수 역은 당초 한국 아버지상의 대표적 인물인 최불암이 물망에 올랐으나 박근형의 '가식없는 연기'가 더 마음에 들어 변경됐다. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
