Man-O-Man Posted June 22, 2020 Share Posted June 22, 2020 Another article in The Korea Times about our favourite movie. Love it! Love it! Love it! https://www.koreatimes.co.kr/www/art/2020/06/689_291561.html Innocence' passes 500,000 ticket sales amid virus-hit cinema downturn Posted : 2020-06-21 15:20 Updated : 2020-06-21 17:51 Shin Hye-sun, left, and Bae Jong-ok, stars of Korea's No.1 box office hit "Innocence," thanked the moviegoers after the film sold more than 500,000 tickets amid a gloomy theater market hit hard by COVID-19. Korea Times file By Ko Dong-hwan Theatrical poster for "Innocence." "Innocence" has defied the COVID-19 scare and attracted more than 500,000 theatergoers Saturday, further cementing its top box office spot since opening on June 10. The record is particularly meaningful because cinemas here have been suffering from a huge audience loss due to the pandemic. After being discouraged from visiting public venues, people instead have increasingly opted for home movies via Netflix or to watch TV shows at home. The Korea Film Council's ticket sales tally shows the movie has had an accumulated 500,507 audience via 919 screens nationwide. The court thriller's achievement comes following consistent critical acclaim. Sony Pictures Entertainment Korea and KIDARI ENT, which distributed the film, released Sunday photos of Shin Hye-sun, who plays the movie's female lead, and Bae Jong-ok, with a written message on a sketchbook showing their appreciation for those who watched the movie. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
immorethant Posted June 22, 2020 Share Posted June 22, 2020 From PIN Prestige magazine Jul 2020. I love this photo, so classic. Really want to see her play in any black&white period movie. You can see the magazine online here https://www.magzter.com/SG/Burda-Singapore-Pte-Ltd/品-Prestige-(PIN-Prestige)/Fashion/ Spoiler Still no. 1 box office on Mon Jun 22nd Tomorrow will probably be the last day that 'Innocence' will be top at the box office because on Wed the new zombie movie #Alive will be released. But I think at least this week total audience will reach 600,000. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iffy21 Posted June 22, 2020 Share Posted June 22, 2020 I think so too that tomorrow will be the last day Innonence will hold then number 1 spot. It doesn't matter as the film that absolutely amazing in the box office and if its reaches over 600,000 this week that would be amazing. No offence to PSH fans but she has nothing on HS when it comes to acting apart from being a big name star. HS has received the recognition she needed through her film as once again proven that she can not only lead a drama but also an entire film on her own. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
immorethant Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 'Innocence' home shopping @iffy21 The first time I read PSH , I thought you mean Park Shi Hoo I think after tomorrow when all 'Innocence' activities have ended, we will be back to quiet and boring day again. While SHS is busying shooting her drama, it will be days-off for us fans. Probably it's time for us to have some rest and go travel. 'Innocence' mission completed. Looking forward to 'Dogul' release (and perhaps 'Innocence' BD/DVD or Netflix release). 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iffy21 Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 @immorethant you made me laugh I can see how you might have got confused and all. Knowing Bros praising Innocence achievement and encouraging our leads is so freaking sweet. Don't think I have seen them do the same for Invader. INNOCENCE FIGHTING!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ni Wen Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 Does that mean Angel Hu and Yeonseo is meeting again? *I know can't post ig but just wanna paste this news so i don't care first lol 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
immorethant Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 Yeah...I'm so glad to see Hoo sunbae-nim again The cast of this drama is getting more and more interesting. But why YNK didn't announce anything about him ? I recall that last year at every month YNK will post IG and twitter to summarize update of each actor's activity, but nothing like that this year. Now I'm not sure if he's still with YNK ? because he also leads in a movie 열혈형사 (literally- passionate detective) which just released on Jun 18th but I didn't see any promote from YNK ( it's sad that the review rating is not good and the movie didn't do well in box office ). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will help them post IG and twitter (but I will post only of SHS)....LOL 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iffy21 Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 YNK are really pissing me off on another level now. I think he is still with the stupid agency but they don't promote their actors. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chibico1020 Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 This will be the third time that SHS and Hu- sunbae will work together. They were hilarious on she was pretty. YNK seldom promote SHS despite the fact she's their most successful artist. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
immorethant Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 'Innocence' is still no 1 at the box office on Tue Jun 23rd. It needs only 10,000 audiences to reach 600,000. After today the number of screen may be reduced due to the new movie, but so far the movie is very successful if we consider that it has new lead actress, new director who wrote script by himself, released by small distributor company with limited budget and of course, Covid situation. While other big budget movies with big stars all stayed back and waited for 2 movies from 2 brave actresses to be the frontliners, I think both movies did remarkable job and also helped encourage many audiences to go to cinema to find out by themselves that it's quite safe and nothing to be afraid of. We can't deny that this is their great achievement paving the way to all big movies that will be released after this. Salute to all actors and staffs. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good job to both HS and Song Jihyo and their respective teams! Innocence has already exceeded expectations and did very well with solid reviews. Through this movie, more people gets to know how good HS acting is and this is to me much more important than the numbers! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
