BP started even later. Thor and MoM started earlier. Trend seems much lower than both so far though. Poor reception to so many films really took a toll on SK.

I was going to say thats pretty decent, butm now that I remember they've got k-pop guy (?), it probably isn't

Can reach 32-33K by midnight. Not completely bad, but we need some local report on telling if anything may be helping/hurting sales.

The Marvels has Park Seo-Joon who is a popular korean actor so I assume SK will be its best market, relatively to its size atleast.

It is a bit unfair to make MCU like the only franchise suffered in SK. Post-Covid, Korean theatrical market simply shrink, domestic or Hollywood alike. In between 2017-2019 there were 4-7 local film hitting 5m admission but until now we have two. Nearly two years after the reopening, Korean only has three 10m movie but there were five in 2019 alone.

 

The only genre growing is Japanese anime.

No Way Home did like 8m adm when covid was still an issue and DS2 had almost 3m adms in first.5 days alone but fell apart due to mixed WOM, the lack of quality from marvel for south koreans in the last 2 years with exception of guardians 3 has killed their brand

Gotg 3 still did great. Marvels was going to face big huddle no matter what. (due to huge incel wave in S.korea) and lack of promo/buzz due to SAG strike made it worse. park seo joon who is huge name here also wont't participate in promotion to support SAG strike.

Is there any evidence of an "incel wave" and that it is affecting the box office?
