'Odyssey' continues its strong box office momentum even in the third week after release.

'Odyssey' surpassed a total of 700,000 pre-sold tickets as of 1:50 p.m. on the 20th. Notably, it is the first film released this year to exceed 700,000 pre-sales even in its third week.

'Odyssey' also maintained the number one spot in overall pre-sale rates for 16 consecutive days, continuing its overwhelming box office trend. It surpassed the pre-sale figures of 'The Man Who Lives with Kings,' 'Exhuma,' and 'The Outlaws 4' at the same time point in their third weeks, raising expectations for a long-term run.

As pre-sales for the fourth week began, interest grew even more intense. At CGV, over 40,000 people queued to purchase tickets at one point, causing app access delays.

'Odyssey' has drawn attention not only within the film industry but also in entertainment show buzz metrics. According to a survey conducted by Good Data Corporation's FUNdex, a specialist in analyzing K-content competitiveness, released for the second week of August 2026, director Christopher Nolan ranked sixth in the celebrity buzz category for non-drama appearances. It is rare for a foreign film director to enter the top 10, underscoring the high interest in 'Odyssey.'

'Odyssey' continues to demonstrate powerful box office strength even in its third week, and attention focuses on whether it can sustain a long-term run. Meanwhile, 'Odyssey' is currently screening at theaters nationwide.
