The action film 'Harbin' (directed by Woo Min-ho, produced by Hive MediaCorp) which has been at the top of the box office for 15 consecutive days in domestic theaters and is on the verge of surpassing 4 million, is also showing the power of 'Carea Ura (Long live Korea independence)' around the world.

On the morning of the 8th, "Harbin" ranked No. 1 in movie reservation rates based on the integrated computer network for movie admission tickets and the reservation sites of the three theaters. "Harbin" topped the list of movie bookings in the third week after its release, beating over "Fairytale but Blue Bull" directed by Lee Jong-seok, "Ferrari" directed by Michael Mann, and "Bogota: The Land of the Last Chance" directed by Kim Sung-je. In addition, since its release on December 24, it has not given up the top spot at the box office once, and has shown off its prowess by staying at the top of the box office for 15 days.

It's not just in Korea. 117 countries worldwide, including the U.S., Japan, France, Taiwan, Australia, and Spain '?Harbin'?Starting with the release of the U.S. and Singapore on December 25 last year, it was confirmed to be released in the U.S. on December 3, Indonesia on the 1st, Malaysia on the 2nd, Australia and New Zealand on the 23rd, and Taiwan on the 29th. Other countries will also confirm their release schedules sequentially.




This achievement is meaningful just because historical materials attributed to Korea's unique characteristics were sold to 117 countries. CJ ENM's overseas distributor said, `Expectations for director Woo Min-ho's new work and top actors such as Hyun Bin appeared. It seems that the fact that he was invited to major overseas film festivals such as the Toronto International Film Festival and recognized for his cinematic quality has attracted overseas buyers."

After dominating the theater with the word of mouth, 'Harbin', which is a must-see movie in the theater, conveys the best audiovisual satisfaction in the history of Korean film technology, meeting the audience's eye level. On top of that, any audience member's heart will beat and heart will heat up, and the story of General Ahn Jung-geun and the Korean Medical Army was tightly released in director Woo Min-ho's own color, leading to favorable reviews from the audience. Attention is focusing on whether Ahn Jung-geun of 1909, who can be seen in the movie, will be able to surpass the 4 million mark in the third week and reach 5 million mark, which includes a message linked to the current situation in 2025.

'Harbin' is a 1909 work that depicts a breathtaking pursuit and doubt between those heading to Harbin for one purpose and those who pursue it. Hyun Bin, Park Jung-min, Cho Woo-jin, Jeon Yeo-bin, Park Hoon, Yoo Jae-myung, and Lee Dong-wook appeared, and director Woo Min-ho of 『Insiders"Namsan's managers" took the megaphone.
