- Jang Hang-joon, director of "The Man Who Lives With the King," is a coffee truck event to thank for its success.


With "The Man Who Lives With the King" being crowned as the first 10 million movie of the year, director Jang Hang-joon expressed his gratitude to fans with a coffee car.
Jang Hang-joon, director of the movie "The Man Who Lives with the King," held a coffee car event at the Seoul Newspaper Square in Jung-gu, Seoul on the 12th to repay the audience's hot love.
On this day, the scene was crowded with fans who gathered after hearing the news of the coffee car event and office workers passing by during lunchtime. When coach Jang Hang-joon appeared in time, loud cheers and flashes poured out, and he responded with a bright smile and a hand greeting.
Coach Jang Hang-joon, holding the microphone, thanked him, saying, "I don't know what's going on." He said, "I'm living my dream-like days with the audience's great love, and I hope Korean movies will come to life with our work. I'll give you coffee now," he said.
Coach Jang Hang-joon thanked the fans by distributing about 200 drinks and gifts prepared on the day, and responded to the fans' support by taking pictures together.


Earlier, director Jang Hang-joon appeared on SBS Power FM's Bae Sung-jae's Ten shortly after the release of "The Man Who Lives with the King" and said, "I will change my phone number, change my name, and get plastic surgery first. I'm thinking about naturalizing elsewhere," he said, drawing attention by making a pledge of 10 million won.
After actually exceeding 10 million viewers, he appeared on the same program and said, "I was just saying it to be funny. He changed his pledge, saying, "There is no one in the world to protect it all," and "As an alternative, we will hold a coffee car event for citizens in the city."
Meanwhile, "The Man Who Lives with the King" is the story of Cheongryeongpo in 1457, a village chief who claimed to be exiled for the revival of the village, and a young predecessor who was expelled from the throne and exiled. It became the first 10 million movie in 2026 and the first 10 million movie in about two years since "The Outlaws 4" (2024). It is the 34th record in history and the 25th record of a Korean movie, surpassing 12 million viewers as of that day, and is on an unstoppable box office run.
