South Korea and UK are now neck to neck to each other for num 3 market of WW for IW.

 

But given that deadpool was far more popular in UK, so I bet SK for the win.....

The UK though had sun his weekend, when the sun goes away as it inevitably does, the B.O. will go back up.

Is it possible for IW to enter the top 5 on this list after its run in SK ends?

Definitely some chance to beat Veteran with good holds, but not reaching Ode to my Father.

It's possible. Whether it will is another matter.

Think Infinity War will end at 5th or 6th in this Top 20 list. 

 

I’m very okay with that. Will make it the second Hollywood movie to be in Top 10.

 

Looking at the chart, it’s amazing how strong the local releases are. 14/20 movies are local.

 

Btw, have you watched Along with the Gods? And how was it?

[Lordmandeep]

It makes sense Roaring Currents is the top film in SK.

 

It was a good action film and a rather legendary Miltary Victory.

Yeah I enjoyed it, it's shows a good insight in how Koreans traditionally view topics such as death and the after-life. It's pretty emotional at the end so if you plan on watching, have a box of tissues ready!
