Ryu Jun-yeol's 'Revelation' Tops Global Netflix Charts for Two Weeks
Ryu Jun-yeol's performance in the Netflix film 'Revelation' has captivated audiences, leading the non-English global film category for two consecutive weeks. The film tells the story of a pastor who believes it is a divine revelation to punish the perpetrator of a missing person case, and a detective haunted by the ghost of the missing person's younger brother, as they each pursue their own beliefs.
In the film, Ryu Jun-yeol portrays the character Seong Min-chan, a pastor who leads a small church and lives a devout life. His world is turned upside down when he receives a divine message to punish the culprit behind a sudden disappearance. Ryu skillfully builds the emotional depth of his character, amplifying the intensity and showcasing a descent into madness that leaves viewers in shock.
Ryu's extraordinary and almost unhinged performance as Seong Min-chan has garnered reactions suggesting that no one else could have played the role as effectively. This acclaim has solidified 'Revelation's' position at the top of the global non-English film charts even in its second week of release, proving its widespread appeal.
Additionally, 'Revelation' recorded a total of 6.9 million views from March 24 to 30, ranking in the top 10 lists across 65 countries, including Japan, France, and Mexico, and drawing significant global interest.
