'Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle' Outgrosses 'Suzume' in Korea

"Demon Slayer: Kimetsu No Yaiba - The Movie: Infinity Castle" has officially outgrossed "Suzume" in Korea.

Now in its 10th week in theaters, "Demon Slayer: Kimetsu No Yaiba - The Movie: Infinity Castle" has drawn 5.48 million moviegoers and amassed 59.2 billion won, edging past the 57.3 billion won record set by "Suzume"―the previous top-grossing Japanese animated release in Korea by revenue.

By admissions, the film is closing in on "Suzume" (5.58 million) and 2025’s overall box-office leader "My Daughter Is a Zombie" (5.63 million). Powered by strong scores and word of mouth, it’s narrowing the gap fast, raising the question of whether it can capture the year’s No. 1 spot.

To thank fans, the film has scheduled fan reward screenings for the weekend of Oct. 25-26. All attendees at those special showings will receive one A3 Hakuji poster.

Set within the demons’ stronghold, the "Infinity Castle," the feature launches the first chapter of the final showdown between the Demon Slayer Corps and the elite Upper Rank demons.
