"The Man Who Lives with the King" recorded the highest sales of any Korean film ever released.

According to the Korea Film Council's integrated computer network on the 30th, "The Man Who Lives with the King" maintained its No. 1 position at the box office by attracting 511,901 viewers on the 8th weekend of its release (27th-29th).

"The Man Who Lives with the King" is a movie about Cheongryeongpo in 1457, a chief who claimed to be exiled for the revival of the village, and a young predecessor who was expelled from the throne and exiled. Actors such as Yoo Hae-jin, Park Ji-hoon, and Yoo Ji-tae are drawing explosive responses from the audience by evoking the "Bangsa-nam" syndrome with their passionate performance and deep resonance.

It recorded a cumulative audience of 15,615,942, ranking third in the number of all-time audiences after Roaring Currents (17,616,661) and Extreme Job (16,266,641). In particular, sales surpassed KRW 15,070 billion,902,533 won, ranking No. 1 in all time. "The Man Who Lives With The King" is the only Korean movie that has made more than 150 billion won in sales.

Expectations are high on what new record "The Man Who Lives with the King" will set, which showed a box office fever that has not cooled down even in the eighth week of its release.

The second place in the box office was then the SF movie "Project Hale Mary," starring Ryan Gosling, which attracted 391,884 viewers to rank second in the box office. The cumulative number of viewers was 1,156,696. "Detective Conan: The Magician of the End of the Century" came in third with 48,467 viewers, followed by "Hoffers" (44,427), and "Theater's Blade of Extinction: Infinity" (22,875).
