SEOUL, Nov. 20 (Korea Bizwire) – A Korean supernatural horror-drama film surpassed 4 million in attendance on Friday, the 16th day of its run, its distributor CJ Entertainment said.
Directed by Jang Jae-hyun and starring Kim Yoon-seok and Kang Dong-won, “The Priests” follows a Catholic priest and deacon who perform an exorcism to save a girl possessed by an evil spirit.
“It’s notable that ‘The Priests’ overtook the November movie market previously dominated by Hollywood films like ‘The Martian’ and ‘The Intern,’” the distributor said in a statement.’
