The feat is all the more impressive considering the current state of the movie theater industry, which was hit especially hard by the COVID-19 pandemic. Notably, “Peninsula” broke past the 1 million mark at the same speed as the hit movie “Ode to My Father,” which currently holds the record for the fourth highest-grossing film in the history of Korean cinema. KST, the new film-which was released on July 15-had amassed a total of 1,000,790 moviegoers, meaning that it took less than four days to reach the milestone. On the morning of July 18, the Korean Film Council announced that “Peninsula,” the long-awaited sequel to the hit zombie film “ Train to Busan,” had officially surpassed 1 million moviegoers. Even amidst the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, “ Peninsula” is proving to be a box office hit!
