Why such big drops on Tuesday?

Why such big drops on Tuesday?

 

I'm wondering as well. Looks like everything dropped 20%-30%...

[Rsyu]

The glorious weather today could have been a factor! People went out in droves to look at the cherry blossoms With spring and autumn seemingly growing shorter by the year maybe they're trying to enjoy the weather fully while they still can

Noah has had terrible legs 

[Rsyu]

During the first quarter, local movies experienced a 4-year low in the SK box office

 

Admissions percentage for Local films fell below 50% (48.9%) for the first time in since 2010.

 

Consistently good to great performances by Hollywood films such as Frozen, Non-stop as well as recent releases Noah and CA:TWS against the generally poor performances of local films (a few exceptions such as miss granny & the attorney) has led the majority of movie goers to pick Hollywood films over local ones. 

 

This is a sharp contrast to the year on year rise of local movie percentage that South Korea's box office has experienced in recent years. Since local films recorded a 51.9% share in 2011, it increased the following year to 58.8% and managed a record breaking 59.7% in 2013. The share for local films this time last year was a huge 69.2% 

 

Factor in the fact that hollywood films have steeper ticket prices compared to korean local films due to 3D and 4DX formats and the difference in gross increases further. 

 

With further popular hollywood films such as TASM2, godzilla & TF4 lined up the good times are expected to roll on for hollywood in South Korea. 

[Rsyu]

Also, I don't see any Korean films with potential for box office success on the horizon except maybe The fatal encounter (역린) which is to be released on April 30th. Hopefully local films will see a recovery during the remainder of the year

I think it'll be in for a healthy 2nd weekend drop.

 

Chris Evans is officially in South Korea filming right now, and they're covering it on the news. That ought to help out with awareness of CA2 also.

 

I hope for about 40% or so drop.
