Korea Box Office: ‘Exhuma’ Makes $16.8 Million Commercial Debut After Berlin Premiere
Occult drama film, 'Exhuma' dominated the Korean box office over the latest weekend, following a Berlin festival premiere.
The film, about two shaman, a feng shui master and a mortician who attempt to undo the mysterious events happening to a U.S.-based Korean family, grabbed $14.5 million between Friday and Sunday, representing a 77% share of the overall box office market. That total should, when weekend estimated are confirmed, give “Exhuma” the status as the second highest grossing film so far in 2024 in Korea, behind only “Wonka,” and the claim to be the biggest Korean production, after overtaking “Citizen of a Kind.” Japanese animation, “Demon Slayer Kimetsu No Yaiba – To the Hashira Training,” the latest feature in the film and TV franchise, weakened to $490,000 in its second weekend in Korea.
