Rsyu Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 (edited) 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 Edited March 10, 2014 by Rsyu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chasmmi Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 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. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rsyu Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Yeah I was thinking of 9m as the optimistic scenario where it would keep hold of it's screens through lack of competitors more than anything else. It will get close to that mark though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rsyu Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 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.
