'Berlin File' Off to a Roaring Start

The movie "The Berlin File" by Ryoo Seung-wan ranked No. 1 at the box office by luring over 1.53 million moviegoers in the first weekend of its release on Jan. 30. The film has attracted more than 2.24 million viewers so far, hitting the 2 million mark in the shortest time of any films released in January or February, the low season for movies.

CJ Entertainment, the distributor of the action flick, expects "The Berlin File" to keep its strong showing this week during the lunar New Year's holiday.

The movie drew attention even before its release on Wednesday due to the star-studded lineup: it features Jun Ji-hyun, Han Suk-kyu, Ha Jung-woo and Ryoo Seung-bum. The flamboyant action scenes are apparently a particular draw.
