These days, the entertainment rule, "The movie that everyone says is going to fail actually succeeds" is well-known.
It is said that the movie "The Chaser" was rejected by many investors at the producing stage because of a new director, and the eerie topic of a serial killer. In reality, the movie is counting down until they reach an audience of 3 million.
However, this movie is breaking records in various entertainment categories and is moving toward an overall number one spot in the entertainment industry.
Director Na Hong-jin, who was in charge of the script and producing, apologized to the residents of Mang Won Dong, saying that the value of the land may decrease. But the scenery of Seoul, Mang Won Dong, is what enabled the movie to succeed in the entertainment industry.
The start for this year's best hit movie, Forever the Moment, was not smooth either.
It was because of the bias that movies about sports do not do well, or that movies with only females do not do well.
The final investment came in only after the preview, and after many complications, the movie attracted 4.1 million viewers.
In addition, movies with the top stars, "Venus and Mars" and "A Man Who Was Superman" only stopped at 400,000 and 560,000 viewers, respectively.
It has proved once again that the key to success in the movie industry is not top stars, advertising, or marketing, but a good piece of work.
