"Thank You, Audience!" 'The Assassin(s)' Launches Appreciation Event Ahead of Reaching Break-Even Point

The film "The Assassin(s)", which ranked among the top 4 Korean box office hits of 2026, is holding a thank-you event for moviegoers.

To celebrate reaching the top 4 among Korean films in 2026, a movie ticket giveaway event is running through Tuesday, October 20. Participants who fill out the application form will be entered into a draw to receive two movie tickets per person for "The Assassin(s)", with the winners to be announced on Wednesday, October 21.

Alongside this, an event will also be held offering a limited-edition HEIGHTS collaboration T-shirt through a raffle for those who book a movie ticket and post proof on social media with the required hashtags. Entries for this event are open through Sunday, November 1, and winners will be announced on Monday, November 2. Detailed information about the events can be found on Hive Media Corp's official social media.
Released on September 23, "The Assassin(s)" surpassed 3 million admissions nationwide within 20 days of release and went on to exceed a cumulative audience of 3.26 million, ranking fourth at the domestic box office among Korean films this year. With the film also on the verge of crossing its break-even point (approximately 3.3 million admissions), the event strongly serves as a way to repay the audience's support.

While "The Assassin(s)" relinquished the No. 1 spot at the overall box office to "Chiikawa the Movie: The Secret of the Mermaid Island", it is firmly holding onto the No. 1 spot at the Korean film box office.
