*** The year that just ended was all about finally seeing a number of movies that began production prior to the pandemic. Despite better-than-expected ticket sales, having so many options to watch comfortably at home led many film buffs and moviegoers to stay inside.  I highly anticipate PSJ's movies "Dream " and  “Concrete Utopia" this year.

Six movies to look out for in 2023

 

 

Despite the lifting of COVID-19 restrictions, cinema admissions last year were weaker than expected. A total of 986.3 million tickets were sold in the January-November period of 2022, up 89.3 percent from a year earlier. However, the figure remained below half (48.3 percent) of the pre-pandemic level (2019) due to a lack of mega-hit films.

Studios latched on to blockbusters including the sequels to "The Outlaws," "Roaring Currents" and "Avatar" to attract audiences back to theaters. Many of the films conceived and shot during the pandemic have been subject to repeated delays as cinemas saw a big drop in overall attendance.

While 2023 still looks somewhat grim, in terms of reaching pre-pandemic attendance levels, there is still room for cautious optimism. Here are six movies to look out for this year, ranging from intense thrillers to sweet romance films.

 

 

'Concrete Utopia'
"Concrete Utopia" is a post-apocalyptic film that boasts a stellar cast featuring Lee Byung-hun, Park Seo-joon and Park Bo-young. Directed by Um Tae-hwa, who was behind "Vanishing Time: A Boy Who Returned" (2016), the film revolves around a few survivors who gather in an apartment complex after a massive earthquake demolishes Seoul.

 

'Dream'
Director Lee Byeong-heon, who helmed "Extreme Job" (2019), will return with the comedy-drama film "Dream." Starring Park Seo-joon and Lee Ji-eun (IU), the film tells the story of a former soccer coach training a national team of rough sleepers for the Homeless World Cup.

Who is the "double box office" actor voted by 24 film reporters from 30 major entertainment media? 

 

"Who will be the king of 'double box office'?" In April last year, when theaters were operating normally following the lifting of social distancing measures, Korean films that had been pushed back from release were presented en masse, and films starring one actor after another met the audience. Thanks to this, Hae Hae-il and Yoo Hae-jin became theater winners in the summer and fall of 2022 with "Decision to Break Up" and "Hansan: Rise of the Dragon", "Mutual Aid 2: International" and "Owl", respectively. With more films waiting for release this year, attention is focused on which actor will be the protagonist of the "double box office." Sports Dong-A asked 30 film reporters from 24 major entertainment media about the protagonist. Among the films scheduled for release this year, three actors (multiple responses) each who have starred in two or more films were ranked.

 

1st place Park Seo-joon (15 votes)...'Dream', 'Concrete Utopia

' 'Dream' IU·' Concrete' Park Bo-young and smoke-breathing Homeless World Cup challenger Park Seo-joon

, who will present the comedy 'Dream' and disaster film 'Concrete Utopia', received the most votes. Star News reporter Kim Mi-hwa said, "As 'Extreme Job,' which attracted 16 million viewers, was directed by Lee Byung-heon and co-starred IU in 'Dream,' 'Dream' is a box office winner." Their chemistry with Park Bo-young, who plays a married couple in "Concrete Utopia," is also curious. Marvel Studios' superhero film "The Marvels," Park Seo-joon's entry into Hollywood, which has been confirmed for release in July, has created synergy with Korean films, leading to the prospect that "the year of Black Rabbit"  will be the year of Park Seo Joon."
