“The Marvels” topped the South Korean box office on its opening weekend, but failed to lift cinema activity out of its recent slump.
“The Marvels” opened with $2.35 million between Friday and Sunday, and a market share of nearly 42%, according to data from Kobis, the tracking service operated by the Korean Film Council (KOFIC). Over its five-day opening run the film pulled in a total of $3.4 million.
