The film "HOPE" has surpassed 4.5 million moviegoers nationwide.
According to the Korean Film Council's integrated ticketing computer network on the 21st, "HOPE" drew 3,820 people nationwide on the 20th, ranking 7th at the box office. The cumulative number of moviegoers reached 4,500,029. This brings it to the 4.5 million milestone in 38 days since its release.
Released on July 15, "HOPE" surpassed 1 million on its 3rd day, 2 million on its 5th day, 3 million on its 11th day, and 4 million on its 19th day. While its momentum was strong during the first week, box office growth slowed down sharply entering the second week. Furthermore, the consecutive releases of "Spider-Man: Brand New Day" and "The Odyssey" put the brakes on breaking even, which is around 5 million admissions.
Entering its 6th week in theaters, the daily audience for "HOPE" has fallen below 10,000, and it is maintaining only around 200 screens nationwide, effectively entering the final stage of its theatrical run.
Having entered the final stages of its domestic theatrical run, "HOPE" is scheduled to continue its overseas screenings starting with releases in Taiwan on September 4 and North America on September 9, followed by Canada, Australia, the United Kingdom, Latin America, France, Italy, Germany, Spain, Hong Kong, Japan, Vietnam, and Singapore.
