[Edaily Starin Choi Hee-jae Reporter] The movie "Spider-Man: Brand New Day" (Spider-Man 4) ranked second in opening-day box office receipts among all films ever released.

According to Box Office Mojo, a movie box office tracking site, on the 2nd (local time), “Spider-Man 4” grossed $355 million (approximately 510 billion won) in North America over the three days from its release on the 31st of last month through the 2nd, securing the second-highest spot in all-time opening weekend records.
This figure falls just $2 million short of the all-time North American box office opening record held by “Avengers: Endgame” at $357 million.
It also ranks second in terms of global opening weekend gross. “Spider-Man 4” added $572 million from international markets outside North America, bringing its global total to $927 million. First place is held by *Avengers: Endgame* ($1.223 billion), third by *Avengers: Infinity War* ($640 million), and fourth by *Spider-Man: No Way Home* ($600 million).
With the production budget for “Spider-Man 4”—excluding marketing costs—reported to be $225 million, the film has already recouped its production costs with its opening weekend box office in North America alone.
The film is also a box office hit in South Korea. Over the weekend from July 31 to August 2 alone, it drew 2,252,935 viewers. The cumulative audience count stands at 3,384,152, and it is on the verge of surpassing 4 million this week.
“Spider-Man 4” is an action blockbuster in which Peter Parker (played by Tom Holland)—forgotten by everyone following the events of “Spider-Man: No Way Home”—is plunged into even deeper turmoil by the appearance of a mysterious enemy who remembers his true identity and by gaining uncontrollable powers due to a DNA mutation. He must face this new threat to protect those he cares about. The film is currently playing in theaters nationwide.
