The "Journey to the West" Park project in Huai'an is scheduled to open in 2020 however the images make it look far from complete. Park looks interesting though.

Up to now, the project has completed the excavation of 39 large-scale monomers such as "The Birth of Monkey King" and "Leiyin Temple", and the main structure of the whole park has been topped. It is expected to be basically completed by the end of 2020 and some equipment commissioning will be carried out.

It was recently announced in Korean media that CJ Live City, a theme park planned for Ilsan, Korea, would not be moving forward. This marks yet another casualty in what may be the world's most challenging theme park development markets, despite the superlative success of Lotte World and Everland.

The project's signature attraction, designed by Legacy Entertainment, was a Mega E-Ticket experience which combined several attractions into one, beginning with a Dark Ride, followed by an Immersive Theater sequence, and concluding with a Maurer Spike Coaster Finale. The storyline involved CJ Studio Tour guests to conduct a heist of a top secret script.

This multi-part attraction is not without precedent, and would have followed in the footsteps of Legacy Entertainment's popular Pacific Rim Dark Ride at Trans Studio Cibubur, which has immersive theater sequences both before and during the main dark ride segment.

In 2013, Lotte World in Seoul, Korea began to reclaim the parks' Basement 1 level in an effort to expand the popular theme park's capacity. Masterplanned in phases by Legacy Entertainment, this floor was home to 3 distinct theme zones; Underland, Fairy Trails, and Wild Tours.

The WILD TOURS zone, which debuted in 2015, is home to 3 simulator attractions produced by SEGA- Wild Wing, Wild Jungle, and Wild River. These simulators can also be found at Sega Joypolis in Tokyo, Japan, and formerly at Sega Republic at the Dubai Mall in Dubai. Given this area's proximity to Underland, Legacy Entertainment's theme park design of the zone also integrated elements of the Ogres from Korean folklore.

Legacy Entertainment's theme park design of Lotte World Buyeo included a unique interactive walk-through experience, most comparable to a "Tilt House" or "Gravity House" (examples include the Knott's Berry Far "Haunted Shack", Santa Cruz "Mystery Spot", Oregon Vortex, and "Casa Magnetica" at Six Flags).

Based on the popular Korean Fairy Tale, the "Ogre's Magic Club", this attraction would have been "The Ogre's Magic Club House", and would have taken guests on a journey through a series of chambers filled with optical illusions (including an Ames Room and a Mirror Maze), puppet characters, interactive 4D effects.























(Note: Lotte World Buyeo is a distinct project from Lotte's Magic Forest in Busan)

In addition to the contemporary design approach seen here previously, Legacy Entertainment also explored a Silk Road-inspired option for the Zheng He Chinese Cultural Center planned by developer Yanlord for the city of Nanjing. In addition to an Indoor Theme Park, Legacy's cultural center design included a large theater for live performance, a museum, an aquarium, as well as an extensive Retail, Dining & Entertainment (RD&E) district.

Seen in this iteration is a very unique concept for a custom Intamin Flying Island / Vekoma Sky Shuttle style attraction that would have allowed guests to travel high above the "Golden Empire" aboard a flying ship.

Lotte World's unique loop configuration gives the park an opportunity to combine their Nighttime Spectacular and Light Parade into a single comprehensive experience. Several minutes before the start of 'Let's Dream!', six 'lantern bikes', each representing one of the parade's six units, emerge and park in different sections of the parade route. Storytellers dismount the bikes, and entertain the audience with the backstory of their section. The main show begins with a towering castle manifesting in the center of the park from which the park's mascot, Lotty, welcomes visitors. The climax of the nighttime spectacular portion is a drone show produced by Legacy Entertainment in which a fleet of 25 choreographed 'Floating Lanterns' form a series of formations in the area above the park's signature Ice Rink. Following this, the main parade begins.
