The movie 'Mogadishu' (Director Ryoo Seung-wan) maintained the top 3 at the box office for 40 days after its release.
According to Lotte Entertainment on September 6th, 'Mogadishu' maintained the TOP 3 at the box office for 40 days after its release. And the cumulative number of viewers has exceeded 3,244,502 and is on the verge of breaking through the 3.3 million audience, which is expected to set another new record at the box office.
It is extremely unusual to record such a long-term box office top spot. The success comes from the timely message that touches the recent international situation, the well-made work completed with highly immersive performances by famous actors such as Kim Yun-seok, Jo In-seong, Heo Jun-ho, and Koo Gwan-hwa, and the hot praise of audiences from all generations continues day after day.
As a result, it maintains 97% of the CGV Golden Egg Index and ranks at the top among the released films, proving that it is a true movie of the year.
Meanwhile, 'Mogadishu' is being screened with rave reviews as a story about the escape of the people isolated from the civil war in the capital of Somalia in 1991 at the risk of their lives.
