Korea Box Office: AI Fantasy ‘Wonderland’ Takes Weekend Win as ‘Bad Boys: Ride or Die’ Stalls on First Lap
At the South Korean box office, AI fantasy film ‘Wonderland’ tops the weekend chart as ‘Bad Boys: Ride or Die’ misses a gear.
Directed by Kim Tae-yong, and co-starring Chinese actor Tang Wei and Korea ’s Bae Suzy, the well-reviewed “Wonderland” presents two narratives about an AI service in which the living can stay in touch with simulated versions of their dead relatives. Both story lines are interrupted by melodramatic turns – a daughter goes missing, a man waking from a coma – providing the characters and audiences with food for thought. “Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga,” which had topped the Korean charts for the previous two sessions, earned $1.40 million as it fell by 38% and from first place to second in its third weekend of release.
