Hitman 2 Reclaims Box Office Top Spot in Just One Day

The comedy film Hitman 2 (히트맨2), directed by Choi Won-seop and produced by Berry Good Studio and Studio Target, has successfully reclaimed the number one position at the box office just one day after its release, surpassing the newly released film Broken (브로큰) directed by Kim Jin-hwang. As of February 6, Hitman 2 recorded 31,319 admissions, bringing its total audience count to 2,114,549, and is on the verge of breaking even.

Notably, Hitman 2 has not only outperformed its direct competitors but has also triumphed over the new release Broken, solidifying its place at the top of the February box office.

Thanks to the enthusiastic support from audiences, the Hitman team has been actively engaging with fans during their promotional events over the past two weeks, even climbing to the top seats in theaters to express their gratitude. This weekend, they are set to continue their fan service with special events in Seoul and Gyeonggi Province, promising an unforgettable experience for attendees.

Hitman 2 tells the story of a webtoon artist who, after experiencing a rapid fall from grace, becomes embroiled in a series of events when a terrorist mimics his new webtoon. The film features a talented cast including Kwon Sang-woo, Jung Joon-ho, Lee Yi-kyung, Hwang Woo-seul-hye, Kim Sung-oh, and Lee Ji-won, with Choi Won-seop returning as the director from the previous installment.
