No usable source links are available for this idea. Its signal notes and scores need independent verification.

Problem

Even when adults in their 50s want to see movies, plays, musicals, or exhibitions, information is fragmented across CGV, Interpark, Yes24, Naver, and other platforms, requiring 30+ minutes of searching each time. Existing curation services target ages 10-30, with no proper curation for genres popular with the 50+ demographic (historical dramas, trot concerts, classical music, period films). As a result, they frequently discover great shows too late, only to find them already sold out.

Solution

Set preferred genres, region, and budget to receive a monthly calendar of personalized movie, performance, and exhibition schedules at the start of each month. Includes early-bird discounts and Senior discount information, with booking open-date alerts. The calendar can be added as a subscription to Google Calendar or Naver Calendar.

Target: Ages 48-62, attends cultural events 1-3 times per month, interested in movies/performances/exhibitions but finds information searching burdensome — working professionals and retirees
Revenue Model: Basic calendar is Free. Premium (booking open alerts + VIP seat early-bird notifications) at $2.90/month, performance booking affiliate CPA commissions
Ecosystem Role: Supplier
MVP Estimate: 2_weeks
