On-point: Will 'The Roundup: Punishment' be able to earn US$ 100 mil. once again?

'범죄도시4' 글로벌 흥행도 청신호, 1억 달러 수익도 넘을까

South Korean crime action franchise The Roundup is back for its fourth edition under the title Punishment and has swept the box office once again.
It already logged five million admissions in just a week after its release.
We're joined by Jason Bechervaise for more.

Welcome back.
1. The fourth edition of The Roundup is showing a strong box office performance, in fact, stronger compared to its predecessors.
Where is this strong performance coming from?

2. Foreign media outlets are also putting a spotlight on its success aren't they?
(what they're reporting, the film shown at the Berlin International Film Festival in February and gaining good reviews from North American panel, etc)

3. Hopes are high that the fourth installment may earn 100 million U.S. dollars as the movie's second edition did back in 2022.
What's your take on the earnings this year?

4. The main character of the film, actor Ma Dong-seok, says he wants to continue the series as long as he can.
What's needed to continue this run?

5. But there are also concerns that The Roundup is overwhelmingly taking screens and seats, thus squeezing other films out of theaters, right?

Thanks so much for joining us this morning.
Have a good day.
