Comedy action film Mission: Possible took back the top spot at the local box office over the weekend.
The film has garnered about 69,000 ticket sales, Saturday and Sunday, grossing 639 million ($568,000). It has accumulated ticket sales totaling 331,000 since its release Feb. 17, collecting about 3 billion won ($2.7 million) in the process.
The newcomer Kim Hyeong-ju s directorial debut soared in popularity upon its release before slipping to third position following the opening of director Doug Liman s latest blockbuster Chaos Walking and Warner Bros. animated family film Tom and Jerry.
