Definition
首映 has two main uses. As a verb, it means 'to premiere' — the first public showing of a film or TV show. It can also mean 'to be the first thing one sees' in descriptive contexts, often in the phrase 首映眼帘 (to greet the eye first). The film sense is common in entertainment news; the visual sense appears in literary or travel writing.
