 'Cho Jung-seok Comedy'pilot', retaking No. 1 again in the 5th week of release..We're about to hit 4.5 million



The comedy film 'pilot' (directed by Kim Hang-yeol, produced by Short Cake and Movie Rock) retook the top spot in the Korean movie box office a day after its fifth week of release.

The word-of-mouth success of 'pilot' continues. According to the integrated computer network for movie theater tickets, 'pilot' recorded 4.36 million viewers on the 29th, making it the top spot in the Korean movie box office once again.

On the 28th, the first day of its fifth week of release, Lim Young-woong once again recaptured the top spot in the Korean movie box office with explosive support from the audience.



This is not the first time that 'pilot', which is on a long box office flight, has recaptured the top spot at the box office and retaken it. During the Liberation Day holiday in the third week of its release, 'pilot' has revealed its presence as a box office comedy this summer, beating 'Alien: Romulus'.

Again, the fifth week of its release is expected to provide once again a perfect laughter vacation to the heatwave-weary audience this weekend. According to the current trend, 'pilot' is expected to reach 4.5 million viewers stably, and will continue to communicate with audiences as the only comedy genre in the summer theater district.



'Pilot' is a story about a man who became unemployed overnight in a star pilot and succeeded in re-employment after a drastic transformation. Cho Jung-seok, Lee Joo-myung, Han Seon-hwa, and Shin Seung-ho appeared, and director Kim Han-kyul of 「Most Ordinary Love」 took the megaphone.
