This summer's hottest movie, 'My Daughter is a Zombie,' reached its break-even point just seven days after its release.
On the 6th, the team behind the film 'My Daughter is a Zombie' (directed by Phil Kamsung, provided/distributed by NEW, produced by Studio N) announced that the cumulative audience has surpassed 2.2 million.
'My Daughter is a Zombie' is a comic drama about a father who is obsessed with his daughter, who has become the last zombie in the world, and secretly undergoes training to protect her. It has taken over the summer Korean box office, setting records since its release.
According to the integrated computerized ticket network, 'My Daughter is a Zombie' surpassed a cumulative audience of 2.2 million as of 6:40 p.m. on the 5th. This is the fastest among Korean films released this year, breaking records for the highest opening score of the year, the highest opening score for a Korean comedy film, and the shortest time to cross 1 million and 2 million audiences this year. Despite the competition in the summer box office, 'My Daughter is a Zombie' has maintained the top spot at the box office for seven consecutive days and ranks first in ticket sales and pre-sales.
The audience reactions to the film are also enthusiastic.
