Director Christopher Nolan's new film 'Odyssey' is proving its status as the summer's top box office hit by continuing to generate explosive pre-sale interest alongside visits from cast and crew.

Director Christopher Nolan, producer Emma Thomas, actors Matt Damon, and Charlize Theron are successfully carrying out their official visit schedule in Korea, starting with a press conference on the 3rd.

On the afternoon of the 4th, they are scheduled to meet domestic fans through a red carpet event and stage greeting, and this intense interest is translating into actual pre-sale momentum, further raising anticipation for the release. According to the integrated cinema ticketing system, 'Odyssey' recorded 449,639 pre-sales as of 10:50 AM that day, firmly holding the number one spot in overall pre-sale rates with an overwhelming figure surpassing 430,000 tickets. Additionally, its real-time pre-sale rate reached 43%, sending a strong signal for successful box office performance.

At the same time, commemorative photos were released featuring the cast and crew posing against a work that reinterprets iconic scenes from 'Odyssey' into ink wash paintings with a Korean aesthetic sensibility. This ink wash painting is by artist Kim So-young of 'Geulssidang', a calligraphy and calligraphic performance artist, depicting numerous warriors pulling a giant Trojan horse from the sea onto land, captured through the depth of ink and the beauty of negative space. Against this special work where the mythic world of Hollywood's master harmonizes with Korean aesthetics, director Christopher Nolan, producer Emma Thomas, Matt Damon, and Charlize Theron took commemorative photos, leaving behind a meaningful moment of their visit. In particular, producer Emma Thomas drew attention by wearing a sky-blue accessory that evoked Odysseus' (played by Matt Damon) journey unfolding over the blue sea, adding to the Korean beauty.

Meanwhile, 'Odyssey' is set to be released in theaters nationwide on August 5.
