South Korea's Supreme Court overturned a Seoul High Court ruling and remanded a discrimination lawsuit filed by four disabled plaintiffs against CJ CGV, Lotte Cultureworks, and Megabox Central. ^[1] The Supreme Court ruled that movie theater operators' failure to provide screen narration (audio description) for visually impaired patrons and subtitles and reception equipment for hearing impaired patrons constitutes discrimination under South Korea's disability anti-discrimination law. ^[2] The Supreme Court reasoned that guaranteeing disabled people's cultural enjoyment and information access requires active measures, and that restricting companies' property rights and economic freedom to some degree is unavoidable to protect disabled people's rights. ^[3] The Supreme Court said the Seoul High Court's limiting accommodations to screens with 300 or more seats and to 3% of total screenings overemphasized the theaters' financial burden and ordered the lower court to comprehensively consider whether disabled people can actually view films equally and what methods could reduce the theaters' burden while eliminating discrimination. ^[4] Kim Mo and three other visually and hearing-impaired individuals sued CGV, Lotte Cultureworks, and Megabox Central, demanding the provision of subtitles and audio descriptions to guarantee their right to watch movies. ^[5] The Supreme Court overturned a lower court decision that had limited the requirement for subtitles and audio descriptions to 3% of total screenings for theaters with 300 or more seats. ^[6] The Supreme Court sent the case back to the Seoul High Court for a new trial, criticizing the lower court for overemphasizing the financial burden on the three major cinema chains. ^[7]
