“Alien: Romulus” emerged on top of the South Korean box office on a weekend with five new-release titles in the top ten chart.
The U.S. horror-thriller franchise film earned $3.47 million between Friday and Sunday, with a 28% market share, data from Kobis, the tracking service operated by the Korean Film Council (Kofic) showed. Over its full five-day opening “Alien Romulus” earned $5.46 million.
