Korean sports drama The Match, which stars Lee Byung-hyun and Yoo Ah-in, topped the country’s weekend box office for a third consecutive week. Initially slated for release in 2023, the film’s premiere was postponed due to drug use charges against lead actor Yoo. Spy thriller The Amateur came in second at Korea’s box office after The Match, with the Rami Malek film adding approximately $325,000 over the past week and grossing around $492,000 since its April 9 debut.
