K-ent Discusses Lack of Hit K-movies in the First Half of 2023 So Far with the Last Hit Being The Night Owl Released at the End of 2022 | KWriter

Ok-actor Ryu Jun Yeol simply gained the Finest Actor Award on the 2023 Baeksang Awards within the movie aspect for sageuk thriller The Night time Owl so it’s somewhat becoming that the film is being mentioned because the final “hit” home movie in Chungmuro for the final 6 months. The Night time Owl bought 3.23M tickets and made a revenue so is taken into account successful however since then not one of the films have come near both these ticket gross sales and even breaking even. The closest is The Level Males with 1.72M tickets bought and Dream with 950K. The difficulty is that there are films with good opinions akin to Rebound and the Ok-version of Soulmate however no film is producing the kind of buzz that will get audiences into theaters greater than typical. However there are large price range films on the horizon particularly with summer time season coming so hopefully it is going to flip issues round.
