[The Fact | Reporter Park Ji-yoon] 'Yadang: The Snitch' has completely taken over the Golden Week theaters.

According to the integrated computer network of the Korean Film Council on the 7th, 'Yadang: The Snitch' (director Hwang Byung-gook) took 121,340 viewers the previous day, taking 1st place at the box office. The cumulative number of viewers is 2,673,134.

With this, 'Yadang: The Snitch' has taken 1st place at the overall box office for 4 consecutive days from the 1st to the 4th, and has regained 1st place on the 6th, the last day of Golden Week, and is running toward surpassing 3 million viewers.

'Yadang: The Snitch', which was released on the 16th of last month, surpassed the record of 'Deadpool and Wolverine' (1,977,010 people), which was the highest box office score among youth-restricted movies released after COVID-19, by reaching the 2 million mark on the 17th day of its release. It then surpassed the records of 'Give and Take' and 'Hitman 2', taking first place among Korean movies released this year.

The film is a crime action film about the intertwining of the broker Opposition Party, who designs the drug ring in Korea, a prosecutor who wants to climb higher, and a detective who is all about cracking down on drug crimes, all with different goals. It attracted attention for the first time by dealing with a kind of broker called 'Opposition Party', who actually exists in the backroom dealings of drug investigations but is not well known.

'A MINECRAFT MOVIE' (Director Jared Hess) ranked second with 117,875 viewers. On Children's Day, the 5th, it ranked first at the box office, but it lost its top spot to the opposition party in just one day.

The movie ''A MINECRAFT MOVIE'', which was released in Korea on the 26th of last month, is a blockbuster adventure that depicts Garrett (played by Jason Momoa), Natalie (played by Emma Myers), Dawn (played by Daniel Brooks), and Henry (played by Sebastian Hansen) who are unexpectedly sucked into the 'Overworld' where everything they imagine becomes a square reality, and the adventures that go beyond imagination as they meet Steve (played by Jack Black), who moves freely there.

'Thunderbolts*' (directed by Jake Schreyer) ranked third with 66,613 viewers, 'The Holy Night: Demon Hunters' (directed by Lim Dae-hee) ranked fourth with 57,133 viewers, and 'Breakthrough' (directed by Min Kyu-dong) ranked fifth with 39,173 viewers.
