Man Living with the King Nears 7 Million Viewers

The press and distribution preview and press conference for the movie 'Four O'Clock' was held, with director Song Jung-woo and actors Oh Dal-su, Jang Young-nam, and Kim Hong-pa in attendance.

Audiences of the movie 'The King and the Jester' are reacting with bewilderment to the unexpected appearance of actor Oh Dal-su. The movie did not mention Oh Dal-su's participation at all, and he did not participate in promotional activities, leading audiences to feel a sense of '​betrayal'.

'The King and the Jester' mobilized 204,929 viewers on the 26th, bringing its cumulative audience to 6,733,443, and is on the verge of surpassing 7 million viewers. This is a record not seen in a year and five months since the 2024 release 'Veteran', and it surpasses the audience numbers of last year's highest-grossing film 'Zombie Daughter'.

The popularity of actor Park Ji-hoon, who sparked the 'Danjong Syndrome', is soaring, and director Jang Hang-jun has earned the title of '​master' with a record-breaking box office success.

However, Oh Dal-su's appearance, amidst past #MeToo controversies, is becoming an obstacle to the film's success. Audiences are expressing their discomfort with his sudden appearance, stating, "I went to see the movie without knowing and my mood was ruined," and "​My immersion was broken."
