'''Background : North Korea's principal producer of feature films is the Korean Film Studio, a state-run studio of about 10 million square feet (930,000 m²) founded in 1947 and located outside of Pyongyang. It has been said that the studio produced about 40 films a year (almost 4 films a month).

'''Logo: On a sky background with some clouds below, we see a drawing of the Paektu Mountain on the top left corner. Peaking out of the clouds is the Chollima Statue (located in Pyongyang) making a turn of about 60 degrees (like the logo of Mosfilm), and we see 조 선 화 인 appearing below the statue.

'Variant: On the North Korean release of Eternal Comrades'', a Soviet-North Korean film produced by Korean Film and Mosfilm, a special variant was created. On a background which is Mosfilm's red sky and Korean Film's blue sky combined, the Paektu Mountain and Spasskaya Tower can be seen, as well as both the Chollima Statue and the Worker and Kolhoz Woman monument on the sides of the screen. Both of the company names are shown. The Russian release of the film had a completely different variant that can be seen here.

'''Trivia: Both the Chollima Statue and the Paektu Mountain are very important in North Korea because of its legends.

'''FX/SFX: The statue doing the turn and the text appearing.

'''Music/Sounds: The opening theme of the movie.

'''Availability: Common in North Korea/DPRK. The logo is apparently still in use today, and plenty of films have it, such as Flower Girl, Urban girl goes to get married, and so on.

'''Editor's Note: None.
