During the Chuseok holiday, the winner of the box office was the movie "Assassins".

According to the Korea Film Council's integrated ticketing system on the 28th, "Assassins" drew 260,042 viewers on the 27th. Since its release on the 23rd, a total of 1,566,139 viewers watched it during the Chuseok holiday. "Assassins" maintained the number one spot at the box office throughout the Chuseok holiday, becoming the holiday's winner.

The second-place film was Han Film's "Tazza: The High Rollers' Song," which also opened on the same day. "Tazza: The High Rollers' Song" drew 169,805 viewers on the 27th, with cumulative attendance reaching 832,936. It is about to surpass one million viewers.

Third place went to "Odyssey," and fourth place to "The Intern."

The movie "Assassins," which secured the number one spot at the box office during the Chuseok holiday, tells a story of tracking the suspicions and masterminds behind the assassination of the First Lady that shocked South Korea on August 15, 1974. Set in 1974, the peak of the Yushin dictatorship, it dramatizes the assassination of Mrs. Yuk Young-soo at an August 15 commemorative event held at the National Theater in Jangchung-dong, blending fact with fiction. The story takes place before the military coup on December 12, 1979—the backdrop for the film "Seoul's Spring," which drew 13 million viewers—and is a well-made follow-up to that work.

Interest focuses on the future box office trends of "Assassins," which opened ahead of the Chuseok holiday and quickly gained momentum, and "Tazza: The High Rollers' Song," which built buzz through word of mouth.
