The movie ″Tazza: The Belzebub’s Song″ (directed by Choi Guk-hee) rose to number one at the box office just six days after its release. According to the Integrated Computerized Ticketing System for movie theaters, on the 28th, ″Tazza: The Belzebub’s Song″ attracted 68,913 viewers in one day, bringing its cumulative audience to 901,929.

Despite being rated for adults only, ″Tazza: The Belzebub’s Song″ has steadily drawn audiences since its release, gaining popularity through word of mouth. This film is a crime movie about Jang Tae-young (Byun Yo-han), who thought he had the world with his online casino business, and his close friend with the same name, Park Tae-young (No Jae-won), who took everything from him. They reunite on the global gambling stage and engage in a revenge battle. As the final installment of the ″Tazza″ series, which has continued for 20 years, the actors’ promotional activities and stage greetings have also become a hot topic online. Meanwhile, ″Assassins″ dropped to second place with 67,406 viewers, bringing its cumulative audience to 1,633,621. ″Assassins″ deals with the suspicions and background of the 1974 assassination attempt on Mrs. Yuk Young-soo, and some scenes in the film suggest possible involvement by then-President Park Chung-hee’s side or the Central Intelligence Agency, leading to ongoing controversy over historical distortion.
