The Chuseok holiday proved good for Korean films sending many of the new films into the 1 million viewer category. Cyrano Agency decisively came out on top but the number two position saw two (three films here in Jeonju) in a tight race. A Better Tomorrow and Despicable Me were neck in neck while Troubleshooter, released a week earlier than these other films, put on a good show in Jeonju. Meanwhile, A Man From Nowhere, nearing the end of its top-10 run, quietly passed the 6 million mark making it one of the most-seen movies of this year.

For the movies being released this week, refer to last week’s posting. They are slated to be released on Sept. 30th.
