1st Logo
(2001-2003)
Logo: We see the starfield with a comet flying across. Suddenly all stars fold into a glowing orange bundle, which then moves and spreads them out. The stars form the 3D blue name CJ ENTERTAINMENT seen in perspective, while the bundle goes to the far end and freezes there. The red dot flies over the logo and colors it into gold, stopping above the bundle and coloring it red.
Variant: Some films like Symphathy For Mr. Vengeance have the plain colored logo in an in-credit fashion.
FX/SFX: Nice CGI.
Music/Sounds: A synthesized woodwind and bell theme.
Availability: Rare. Can be seen on The Way Home.
Editor's Note: None.
2nd Logo
(2003-)

Logo: We start at a night sea landscape, colored in deep blue. Children jump around and play with fireworks on a rocky peninsula. 3 colored splashes blast from their fireworks and proceed up, while the camera follows them, then stops and lets the splashes to pass on. We then have a view from below, watching these splashes reaching the sky and exploding there, forming three oval figures - red, blue and orange. The logo name poses around it and glows. The background clears out.
Variant: Starting in 2011, the text is now in the corporate font, all capitalized, and a byline appears in the same font saying "A CJ E&M CORPORATION COMPANY"
FX/SFX: An AMAZING combination of CGI and live-action!
Music/Sounds: A short string entry as the children giggle and the fireworks pop, progressing into a massively beautiful, rising orchestral tune. We then hear some fireworks sparkle, followed by another string note and a 5-note chime sounder. The rising part of the theme is actually a piece of production music used in many cartoons, and Nine Network's 2001 "Still the One" campaign.

Music/Sounds Variant: A few films, such as Parasite, have part of the opening theme from the film.
Availability: Common on Korean releases, which can be on sale worldwide, such as Sophie's Revenge, A Man Who Was Superman and I'm a Cyborg but That's OK. For original Korean distributions it is usually replaced with its local publisher, but some films directly produced by CJ retain the logo. On English versions of their output, the logo is replaced by the English distributor's logo (such as The Little Penguin Pororo's Racing Adventure which was released by Lionsgate & Grindstone in English)
