Korea Weekend Box Office - June 27-29

Not much to say this week about the box office. PUBLIC ENEMY RETURNS is still doing well, up to 2.7 million admissions. KUNG FU PANDA is about to pass 4 million admissions and should become the biggest foreign film of the year shortly.

Oh and I should note how poorly Kwak Jae-young's MY MIGHTY PRINCESS did. Worse than DAISY. Ouch.
