1905 Movie Network News On the weekend of the sixth week of 2016 (February 12 to February 14), the total number of moviegoers in South Korea was 2.233 million, a sharp drop from 3.15 million in the previous week, and it is clear that the power of the Valentine's Day file is still far less than the Spring Festival file. In particular, there was no blockbuster release last week, so that "The Prosecutor's Tale" even won the weekend box office of Zhuangzhuang, and it successfully exceeded 8 million moviegoers along the way. "Kung Fu Panda 3" continues to rank second, and the staying power is not enough. Marvel's new work "Deadpool", which was only released on February 17, has reached the third place with a paid test screening at the weekend, and has basically booked the title of the new box office champion this weekend. In the new films, "Theatrical Idol Activity", "Lightning Man" and "Tailor" are ranked 4th, 7th and 8th respectively.
"The Prosecutor's Tale" and "Kung Fu Panda 3" were even the champions and runners-up
Starring Huang Zhengmin and Jiang Dongyuan, "The Prosecutor's Tale" was released in South Korea on February 3, and the first weekend reached the top with 2.317892 moviegoers, while the second week of the weekend was still Chuangzhuang, showing 25,395 shows on 1,648 screens, with 1,363,015 weekend viewers, with a box office share of 61.1%, close to 2/3 of the total box office of the Korean film market, and the cumulative number of moviegoers has reached 8,075,012. Although it is not as good as "The Battle of Mingliang", the film has different reputations, and it is rare to have such achievements. Whether it can exceed 10 million people is very critical this weekend. And this week there will be three highly anticipated new films released, and whether "Prosecutor's Tale" can remain in the top three is still unknown.
"Kung Fu Panda 3" also continued to stay in the runner-up position, showing 8,296 shows on 737 screens last weekend, with 367,929 viewers on weekends, down 33.3% from the previous week. With a box office share of 16.0%, it ranked second. Basically, it is weak. At present, the cumulative number of moviegoers is 3.693170. The first "Kung Fu Panda" mobilized 4.67 million viewers when it was released in 2008, and grew to 5.06 million by the time of the second. It is not easy to surpass the two previous works. But there is still hope for more than 4 million people.
"Deadpool" grabbed the beach ahead of schedule to become the third place The animation "Idol Activity" ranked fourth
Deadpool, which was officially released on February 17, was screened in advance for a fee last weekend, with 474 people on 128 screens, 88,000 weekend viewers, and 88,585 cumulative moviegoers. The film's paid test runs have been poor in recent months, and Deadpool has been a big success. After "Prosecutor's Tale" sparked a "screen exclusivity" controversy, the release of "Deadpool" gave audiences eager to see new films a taste of sweetness. Coupled with the super good box office performance after the release in North America, it also helped the film's release in South Korea. The attendance rate reached more than 80%, which shows the audience's attention to the film. This weekend, if there is no accident, it can be successfully climbed to the top and replace the champion position of "Prosecutor".
In fourth place is the Japanese anime "Idol Event!" The Theatrical Edition, introduced and distributed by CJ, was released on 254 screens last weekend with 1,652 screenings, with 79,282 weekend viewers and a cumulative audience of 101,434. The cartoon is aimed at girls under the age of 10 and is a rare genre seen in the Korean film market before. Judging from the current performance, it can also be regarded as a certain recognition. However, industry analysis said that if the film is released in advance to the Spring Festival file, so that the family animation and the adult movies such as "The Prosecutor's Tale" do not conflict, they will definitely achieve better results than now.
"Lightning Man" and "Tailor" first weekend seven or eight
After the fifth place "Carol" with 75,340 people and the sixth place "Rat Noble 4" with 61,160 people, the new Korean film "The Flash" ranked seventh, while "The Tailor" starring Kate Winslet ranked eighth.
"Lightning Man" was screened on 393 screens last weekend for 2362 shows, with 45,077 WEEKEND viewers and a cumulative audience of 53,343. Lightning Man is a character featured on a popular EBS television show in South Korea in 1999. As a very famous children's program that year, musicals were also launched later. This debut on the big screen tells the story of the struggle between the Lightning Man and the Demon King who wants to eliminate his lightning powers. Cho Gen-hyun, who is an art director, directs, and newcomer actor Jung Hyun-jin plays Lightning Man.
"The Tailor" was screened on 176 screens for 1368 times, with 34,353 weekend viewers and 41,168 cumulative viewers. Adapted from the novel of the same name by writer Rosalie Ham, Tailor is self-written and directed by Joslyn Mulhouse, director of "Love Like a Physical Evidence", starring Kate Winslet and Liam Hemsworth, and tells the story of the charismatic heroine Tilly Donnaki, who returns to her Australian home town and takes a sweet revenge on those who have had a festival with her.
New film this week: "Deadpool" or One Big
With a number of new films released this week, Deadpool currently ranks first in the pre-sale rate list with a pre-sale rate of 42.3%, with a pre-sale audience of 93,417 people. The film is a spin-off of the X-Men film series, a sci-fi film directed by Tim Miller and starring Ryan Reynolds, about former Special Forces Soldier Wade Wilson who falls ill with cancer and voluntarily joins The X-Weapon Project to gain rapid self-healing abilities but loses his appearance. After being tortured by abuse, he managed to escape and unfold the story of revenge. Deadpool is also the seeded player for this week's weekend box office champion.
