The movie 'Exhuma' (director Jang Jae-hyun) is on a roll with its global box office success. Thanks to this, countries for the release were even more added.
'Exhuma' is gaining explosive popularity in Laos, Cambodia, Malaysia, and Hong Kong. In Cambodia and Laos, it ranked first in the box office success of Korean films of all time.
In Cambodia, it achieved the highest score among all Korean works in just two days after its release on the 18th. In Laos, it surpassed 'Peninsula' and 'Train to Busan' in 11 days after its release on the 4th. As expected, it is the No.1 K-movie of all time.
Purple Plan, a Cambodian and Laos distributor, said, "'Exhuma' has quickly established itself as a highly anticipated film in the local market," and added, "It was also released in a Khmer-dubbed version in Cambodia."
They continued, "Audiences were fascinated by 'Feng shui' and the theme of occults," and "It is being evaluated as a fresh and unique concept that sets it apart from other movies."
On the 23rd, 'Exhuma' ranked 4th in the box office success of all Korean works in North America. It is the result of surpassing 'Train to Busan' and 'Monster'. In Hong Kong, it is the highest score for a Korean film in its opening week since 'Peninsula' (2020).
Edko, a Hong Kong local distributor, was satisfied, saying, "'Exhuma' is creating a sensation among Hong Kong audiences with its strong presence," and "The Korean film has successfully returned to the Hong Kong box office."
In Indonesia, a cumulative audience of 2.6 million was mobilized on the 18th. In Vietnam, a total of 2.44 million people were gathered as of today.
'Exhuma' will also be available in theaters in India, South Asia, Turkey, and Russia in May.
