The new twist on the Chunhyang story, The Servant, held its position as the number one film in Korea last weekend for a second week in a row. I think I can also safely predict that it is its final week there as 71: Into the Fire will officially open.  ‘71′ received a limited test screening in theaters this past weekend and did very well. That and the other films opening this coming week are listed below.
