The new movie from Disney has become the highest-grossing animated feature in South Korea.
Disney animation "Frozen" broked record of "Kung Fu Panda II"'s 5.06 million admissions which was biggest animation box office score and now it's on its way to be the first animation film to hit the 10 million viewer mark here in South Korea.
According to the Korean Film Council (KOFIC), the Disney film has grossed $44.17 million (47.7 billion won) in South Korea, passing prior record-holder "Kung Fu Panda 2," which pulled in $41 million (44.298 billion won) in 2011.
And it has since knocked the blockbuster Korean film "The Attorney" out of its place after four straight weeks at the top.
The film has drawn over six million admissions in South Korea, reaching the box-office milestone in 18 days. "Frozen" has grossed $864.4 million worldwide at the box office since its late-November release.
