Actor Yoo Ji-tae shared a cheerful reaction to the success of The King's Warden.
On the 15th, Yoo Ji-tae posted on his personal SNS to commemorate The King's Warden surpassing 13 million viewers, writing "an unmanageable gratitude."
The phrase recalled the scene in which Han Myeong-hoe, played by Yoo Ji-tae, says to Eom Heung-do (Yoo Hai Jin) before the exile of Danjong (Park Jihoon), "Can you handle it? Whoever comes, that is," which drew laughter.
Earlier that day, according to distributor SHOWBOX's official SNS, The King's Warden surpassed a cumulative audience of 13 million that morning and ranked 10th on the all-time box office. This is notable as it exceeded the film The Thieves, which drew 12,984,701 viewers when it was released in 2012.
Meanwhile, The King's Warden is a film set in 1457 Cheongnyeongpo that tells the story of a village head who volunteered for exile to revive the village and the young deposed king who was exiled from the throne. Yoo Ji-tae recorded his first 10-million-viewer film in his filmography with this work.<
