South Korea Box Office

Recommended Posts

I can't believe how well miss granny is still doing. It's placed 3rd in the box office! If it wasn't in competition with frozen this would have easily gotten 10m+ admissions. It could have been the new miracle in no.7 cell

Was thinking almost the same thing.If you think that Frozen has effectively 'stolen' 7million admissions from somewhere I think its safe to say that maybe even half of that would have gone to Miss Granny.

 

The reverse is also true I think. Miss granny and frozen both prevented each other from reaching their full potential.

I'm thinking miss granny will finish at around a resectable 9m admissions.

It won't reach 9m. Miracle in Cell No. 7 added 570k  from last year at this point and it was doing much better than Miss Granny. I'm thinking 8.7m-8.8m total for Granny. Still an amazing result.

Wow Miss Granny is still doing great. Is the movie any good? It's released here today, and I'm kinda interested.

It's a lot like the movie "big" (starring tom hanks) only with a female lead. It's a humorous and touchy-feely type of movie. Nothing spectacular but well worth the watch in my opinion. Edited by Rsyu

Kinda like Miracle in Cell No.7 then? I laughed a lot and cried a lot watching that movie. Sounds good to me.

Yeah many are drawing that comparison actually. Miss granny has more songs though which made it more enjoyable to a music lover like me :D

2014 february SK box office 

 

admissions: 18,56M (-15% from 2013)

gross: 138,788,716,956 won ($129.95M) (-12.2% from 2013)

 

Besides from miss granny and frozen, no other movie managed more than 1m admissions hence the overall decrease. 

Korean movies accounted for 53.4% of movies.

Korean+hollywood movies accounted for 97.3% of admissions.

Overall increase in the size of South Korea's film market year to year can be seen here.

For 2014 January and February, the attendance was similar as to 2013 while gross increased slightly compared to the same period last year. 2014 should continue the upward trend and increase from 2013. 

Except for odd years, Korean movies tend to have more admissions and gross slightly more than foreign films which shows that local films are generally more popular in South Korea.
