'12.12: The Day' Production Company Tops Vietnam Box Office with Film 'Mansion of Mr. Hua'

The film 'Mansion of Mr. Hua' (LẦU CHÚ HỎA), which was invested in and produced by content production company Hive Media Corp, has reached the top of the Vietnamese box office just six days after its release.

'Mansion of Mr. Hua,' which had garnered anticipation even before its release as Vietnam's first found-footage horror film, surpassed all competing films to claim the number one spot at the box office on June 17.

The film's setting, the 'Mansion of Mr. Hua,' is a real historical building located in the heart of Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. It is a place surrounded by urban legends, such as being a "mysterious mansion with 99 doors" and a "house where the ghost of a woman in white appears."

'Mansion of Mr. Hua' maximizes the immersion of a realistic, experiential horror film by capturing local Vietnamese ghost stories and the actual location in a found-footage format. As a result, it has been receiving an enthusiastic response from local audiences since its release.

Hive Media Corp, a production company known for producing works with high genre perfection, participated in the investment and production. Partnering with Runup Vietnam, a local production company that has released its third local film with 'Mansion of Mr. Hua,' Hive Media Corp utilized its unique production expertise to create a film that elevates both genre quality and the vividness of local subject matter. 'Mansion of Mr. Hua' not only reached number one at the Vietnamese box office but also surpassed its break-even point in just seven days.

Hive Media Corp is a production company that has consistently presented well-made films with both artistic and commercial appeal, such as 'Inside Men,' 'The Man Standing Next,' 'Deliver Us from Evil,' '12.12: The Day,' 'Harbin,' and the series 'Made in Korea.'

Starting with the success of 'Mansion of Mr. Hua' in Vietnam, Hive Media Corp is expected to further accelerate its progress as a global content production company by expanding its scope of activities to include international co-investment and co-production.
