Train to nowhere? South Korea’s lonely push for peace with the North
Plans to reconnect South Korea's northernmost station to the rail network come at an awkward moment as Pyongyang has ignored Seoul's overtures.
KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 21 — The animated film Papa Zola The Movie is set to grace South Korean theatres on September 2, according to MONSTA. Media director Faiz Zainal Aabidin expressed gratitude to South Korean distributors and cinemas for their confidence in the film. He emphasized that this recognition marks an opportunity to introduce Malaysian animation to a broader audience and highlights the universal appeal of their stories.
MONSTA's achievement is noteworthy, as it signifies international distributors' trust in the company's work and the values and culture of Malaysia it portrays. The movie is MONSTA's second release in South Korean cinemas, following BoBoiBoy The Movie in 2016. Zainal Aabidin stated that "From 'Papa' to 'Oppa', Papa Zola is ready to greet audiences in South Korea with action, adventure and humour that will entertain and delight them."
Following its release in South Korea, the film is slated for theatrical debut in several other markets, including Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait on September 23, before further expanding to Australia, New Zealand and India.
