Devil Wears Prada 2 Dominates Weekend Box Office

The movie "The Devil Wears Prada 2" rose to the top of the weekend box office in its second week of release. During this period, it drew 195,510 viewers, bringing its cumulative audience to 1.22 million. This marks a turnaround for "The Devil Wears Prada 2," which debuted in second place behind "Super Mario Galaxy" on its opening weekend, but managed to reverse the rankings within a week.

However, future box office prospects remain uncertain. This is because the movie "Michael," about Michael Jackson, is set to be released on the 13th. As of 7 AM on the 11th, "Michael" had approximately 64,000 pre-sale tickets, significantly ahead of "The Devil Wears Prada 2"'s approximately 14,200.

"The Devil Wears Prada 2" is the sequel to the 2006 film, with Meryl Streep reprising her role as Miranda and Anne Hathaway returning as Andy. In a rapidly changing media landscape, Miranda teams up with Andy, who returns as the new editorial director after 20 years, to save the fashion magazine "Runway" from crisis. Andy, who left "Runway" in the previous film, reunites with Miranda while working as an investigative reporter.

Meanwhile, during the same period, "Super Mario Galaxy" ranked second with 184,009 viewers, bringing its cumulative audience to 1.31 million. The Korean film "​Salmokji" added 147,325 viewers, surpassing 3.02 million in cumulative audience.

Among Korean films released this year, only two have drawn over 3 million viewers: "King and the Clown" (16.83 million viewers) and "​Salmokji." "Salmokji" is a horror film depicting the events that unfold when a film crew enters "Salmokji," a reservoir plagued by strange rumors, with actress Kim Hye-yoon playing the lead role of 'Su-in.'
