bearcreek Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 'Veteran 2' → 'Harbin' Korean movies galore... Who will lead the 'Spring of Seoul' fever? [DAILYAN] Leaving behind 2023, a year full of joy and regret, the new year of 2024 has dawned. 2023 was clearly a year in which Korean films were clearly in crisis due to the successive box office failures of highly anticipated films. According to the Korean Film Council's integrated computer network for movie tickets, the number of moviegoers who visited theaters from January to November last year was 108.44 million, of which 47.07 million were Korean moviegoers. 'Crime City 3' seemed to have opened up a path to success by surpassing 10 million viewers, but it did not last long. The industry was shocked as tentpole anticipated films fell one after another. Fortunately, the film 'Spring of Seoul', released in November, exceeded 10 million viewers, and 'Noryang: Sea of Death', released in December, did well and emerged as a hope for Korean films. What movie will be able to continue the box office success of ‘Spring in Seoul’ this year? Will the new works of Korea's top five distributors, CJ ENM, Lotte Entertainment, NEW (Next Entertainment), Showbox, and PlusM Entertainment, be able to move the hearts of audiences? ◆ CJ ENM, which was 'depressed' last year, counterattacks with a rich lineup of 'Veteran 2' → 'Harbin' 'Veteran 2', the sequel to director Ryu Seung-wan's 10 million box office hit 'Veteran' (2015), will also be available in 2024. 'Veteran 2' is a crime action film depicting a new crisis facing the more experienced detective Seo Do-cheol (played by Hwang Jung-min) and the veteran violent crime investigation unit. Following the first film, Hwang Jung-min, Oh Dal-su, and Jang Yoon-ju will appear, and Jung Hae-in will join as the villain. Expectations were raised.

bearcreek Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 [New Year’s Plan] ④ Hwang Jung-min, Ma Dong-seok, Hyun Bin, Jung Hae-in, Park Bo-gum, Kim Seon-ho, theater relief pitchers 2024.01.03 13:01PM [JOY NEWS] The most frequently used word in the film industry in 2023 was ‘crisis.’ Although 'Crime City 3' and 'Spring of Seoul' reached the 10 million mark, and 'Smuggling', 'Concrete Utopia', 'Sleep', and '30 Days' did well by exceeding the break-even point, they are now expected to surpass the 1 million mark. The film industry was in such a dark age that people said it was difficult. In addition, due to various negative factors such as cast risk, there are quite a few works that cannot be released and are put on hold. It is a time when the worries and sighs of those working in the film industry are growing. Nevertheless, the spark of hope has not yet died. The box office successes of ‘Spring in Seoul’ and ‘Noryang: Sea of Death’ that marked the end of the year make us look forward to and support the revival of the Korean film industry. Accordingly, each distributor is preparing to meet audiences by forming a solid lineup for 2024. ◇ CJ ENM, Hyun Bin as Ahn Jung-geun → Hwang Jung-min x Jung Hae-in ‘Veteran 2’, highly anticipated work Director Ryu Seung-wan, who once again showed off his potential with last year's 'Smuggling', returns with 'Veteran 2'. 'Veteran 2', a crime action film depicting a new crisis facing the more experienced detective Seo Do-cheol (Hwang Jung-min) and the veteran violent crime investigation unit, stars Hwang Jung-min, Jung Hae-in, Oh Dal-su, Jang Yoon-ju, Oh Dae-hwan, and Kim Si-hoo, and is scheduled for release in the winter of 2024. Post-production is in progress. Director Ryu Seung-wan said in the GV for 'Spring in Seoul', "It is a movie set in winter. It is a darker movie than you might think. Actor Jung Hae-in looks very cool." The synergy that Hwang Jung-min and Jung Hae-in, who showed strong performances in 'Spring of Seoul', will show in 'Veteran 2' is also an expected point.
