The Band of God ranked No. 1 at the box office on the 1st, drawing 65,745 moviegoers nationwide.

According to the Korean Film Council’s integrated ticketing system on the 2nd, cumulative admissions reached 934,377, marking the top spot five weeks after release.

After opening behind Avatar: Fire and Ash, Zootopia 2, and If Only We at No. 4–5, the film climbed steadily on sustained audience growth.

Its premise—a North Korean security officer forming a fake praise band—blends humanistic emotion with musical grandeur, driving word of mouth and repeat viewings.

Despite the April 4 release of The Man Who Lived With the King, strong seat occupancy suggests the march to one million admissions is only a matter of time.
