According to the Korean Film Council’s integrated computer network on the 10th, “Spider-Man 4” surpassed 6 million viewers around 10:20 a.m. that day.
"Spider-Man 4" ranks second in box office earnings among films released this year, following "The Man Who Lives with the King" (16.91 million viewers). "The Swarm" (5.95 million viewers) has slipped to third place.
It also reached this milestone five days faster than the 2023 film “Spring in Seoul” (13.12 million viewers).
Since its domestic release on the 29th of last month, “Spider-Man 4” has set a new record for the fastest-selling film this year, surpassing 4 million viewers in just 7 days and 5 million in 11 days.
“Spider-Man: Brand New Day” is an action blockbuster that follows Peter Parker—who had been forgotten by everyone since “No Way Home”—as he faces a mysterious enemy who remembers his true identity and confronts a new threat. The film stars Tom Holland, Zendaya Coleman, and Sadie Sink.
