Korea Box Office: ‘Tenet’ Wins Weekend as Exhibitors Face Pain

cases resurge in the world’s number four box office market. And Korean cinema operators are retrenching.

Including previews from the previous weekend worth $719,000 and the takings from its midweek official debut, “Tenet” has accumulated $5.08 million to date inDropping from first place to second, hitman thriller “Deliver Us From Evil” earned $411,000, down from its previous score of $1.41 million. Happily, it did most of its business, before the latest virus spike, and since its release on Aug. 5, the film has earned $31.8 million.
