Big Hero 6 may be following the success of Frozen in South Korea, as the latest Disney animated film topped the local box office for the Jan. 30-Feb. 1 weekend, beating out homegrown fare.
Distributed by Walt Disney Company Korea and starring the voice of regionally popular actor Daniel Henney, Big Hero 6 climbed to the top after debuting in second spot the previous week. According to the Korean Film Council’s KOBIS database on Monday, the film accounted for 29 percent of weekend sales to reach a gross total of $12.6 million.
