Although it did not succeed in the box office, Independence's "Wonderful Days" has received a favorable response from critics for its CGI. Recently, Independence's state-of-the-art technology has been showcased in "Welcome to Dongmakgol", a box-office hit film that heavily used then the best possible CG techniques.
With the introduction of Autodesk equipment, Independence believes that it can offer unlimited possibilities with its highly creative animation artists and also improve the quality of animation.
