The movie ‘Harbin’ has surpassed 3 million moviegoers in just 9 days since its release.

The movie ‘Harbin’ is a story of breathtaking pursuit and suspicion between those heading to Harbin for a single purpose and those chasing them in 1909. According to the integrated computer network distribution company statistics for movie tickets on the 1st, ‘Harbin’ has surpassed 3 million moviegoers.

Released on December 24th of last year, it reached 1 million moviegoers on the 2nd day of its release, 2 million moviegoers on the 5th day, and 3 million moviegoers on the 9th day of its release. This trend is faster than the 13 million box office hit ‘Spring of Seoul’ (10th day), and if there was ‘Spring of Seoul’ in 2023, ‘Harbin’ will be unfolding the ‘Parallel Box Office Theory’ beyond 2024 and into 2025.

‘Harbin’‘s box office momentum continues with the number 1 spot in overall movie ticket reservations for 18 consecutive days.

A special poster has also been released. The special poster, which contains images of all the actors who showed their dedication and all-out acting, also draws attention to Ahn Jung-geun (played by Hyun Bin), Park Jung-min (played by Woo Deok-soon), Kim Sang-hyun (played by Jo Woo-jin), Gong Bu-in (played by Jeon Yeo-bin), Mori Tatsuo (played by Park Hoon), Choi Jae-hyung (played by Yoo Jae-myung), Lee Chang-seop (played by Lee Dong-wook), and Ito Hirobumi (played by Lily Frankie).

Meanwhile, ‘Harbin’ is currently showing to great acclaim.
