'Bohemian Rhapsody' Scales New Box-Office Heights
"Bohemian Rhapsody" about legendary British rock band Queen on Saturday became the sixth-highest grossing foreign film in Korea of all time with more than 9 million tickets sold, surpassing "Iron Man" from 2013.
The popularity of the film was expected to wane around year's end with the release of big-budget Korean films like "The Drug King," "Swing Kids" and "Take Point." But "Bohemian Rhapsody" refuses to go away.
This December high season marked the first time in seven years that Korean movies fell behind foreign ones. From Dec. 1-29, domestic films accounted for less than half or 47.2 percent of the market.
