'The Intern' rose to the top of the overall box office immediately upon its release.

According to the Korea Film Council's integrated computer network on the 17th, 'The Intern,' which opened the previous day, drew 61,038 viewers and secured the number one spot in the box office. The cumulative audience count stands at 82,566.

'The Intern' tells a story of an office life that transcends both generation and rank, beginning when 'Ki-ho' (played by Choi Min-sik), a silver intern with 37 years of experience, joins the company of 'Sun-woo' (played by Han So-hee), who has emerged as a dark horse in the fashion industry within three years of launch.

Not only did it overtake 'Odyssey,' which had been dominating the box office for an extended period, to claim the top spot, but it also reclaimed the number one position in the overall box office for the first time in 50 days since 'Hope.'

Following that, 'Odyssey' gathered 41,322 viewers and recorded second place, with a cumulative audience count of 10.92 million 1,483.
