PARTNER STORY

OPPORTUNITY

To enhance plays, operas, musicals,

exhibitions and more, South Korea’s

Gimje Cultural and Art Center required a

state-of-the-art upgrade to their existing

lighting system.

SOLUTION

Hansam System replaced Gimje Cultural

and Art Center’s old halogen lamps with

Martin by HARMAN ELP-WW and ELP-CL

LED lighting fixtures for maximum power

and efficiency.

GIMJE CULTURAL AND ART CENTER, SOUTH KOREA

Founded in 2009, the Gimje Cultural and Art Center is South Korea’s premier event

space for plays, operas, musicals, exhibitions and more. Home to a 488-seat grand

performance hall, a smaller 230-seat performance hall and various exhibition halls,

the Gimje Cultural and Art Center hosts prominent performances and events such as

“The Sound of Jazz Concert,” “Korean Rock Music Concert” and “Gala Les Miserables

Concert.” In order to create brighter, more balanced lighting displays, the Gimje Cultural

and Art Center recently hired Hansam System, South Korea’s leading distributor of

professional event lighting, to upgrade their existing system with a cutting-edge lighting

solution. After assessing the needs of the venue, Hansam System selected Martin by

HARMAN ELP Series fixtures for their superior output and vivid color rendering.

“The theater needed a custom lighting solution that was more compact and powerful

than their existing setup,” said Sehoon Park, Sales Manager, Hansam System. “The

old fixtures were halogen lamps, and the client wanted to replace them with new LED

lighting units that could deliver better performance. Martin ELP LED lighting units were

the perfect choice, with their powerful performance and cost savings. We had a little

trouble fitting them into the existing installation space, but we used a bracket to raise the

existing batten fixtures, which provided enough room for the new fixture’s operation.”

Hansam System equipped the performance hall and projection room with cutting-edge

Martin ELP-WW warm white and ELP-CL full color LED ellipsoidal fixtures, which deliver

class-leading luminance and unparalleled ease of use. Equipped with 19-degree beam

angle tube lenses, the ELP fixtures provide tight, punchy beams for creating dazzling

lighting displays.

“The Gimje Cultural and Art

center is the only theater in the

city, so we wanted to deliver the

best possible lighting solutions

to ensure the perfect viewing

experience for every event.”
