SEOUL, South Korea – Robe moving lights have been installed in the E&M TV studio in Seoul, South Korea, which is dedicated to producing music shows – both pre-recorded, live and often with live audiences –  for the MNet broadcasting network’s 24 hour music channel.

The studio is owned and operated by CJ Entertainment & Media.

The Robes – 30 ROBIN MMX Spots, 24 ROBIN 100 LEDBeams and eight ColorBeam 2500E ATs – were specified by JaeWoo Choi, owner of rental company RGB, and supplied via Robe’s Korean distributor, ArtTech Lighting Co., Ltd.

RGB services the lighting needs of the E&M Studio and the MNet music channel, and has been using the Robe brand since it was launched 10 years ago.

JaeWoo Choi comments, “After 10 years of experience using Robe in all types of scenarios and applications, I can honestly say that their products stay ahead of the rest on reliability and innovative features, and the current ROBIN series is no exception. These luminaires were the perfect choice for the studio.”

RGB also took into account the opinions and views of the various operators who work at the studio before laying down the final spec. They wanted all the latest technology available, and so chose the MMX and LEDBeam 100 products, together with the ColorBeam 2500s.

ArtTech Lighting’s Daein Yoon explains that their television customers appreciate functions like hot spot control and in the case of the MMX, the animation/gobo wheels and also the on-board wireless remote access.

ArtTech also saw the E&M Studio as an ideal opportunity for one of their leading entertainment-based clients to showcase the new LEDBeam 100s, and encouraged them to take that route.

All the fixtures are movable around the studio which is a multipurpose space that can be configured in a number of different ways to suit the show.

Lighting in the studio is usually operated by Yeondo Kim of RGB using a grandMA2 full size console.

“The Voice Korea” will be one of many major shows to benefit from the new Robe installation.
