Following a Wednesday release, “Perhaps Love” racked up an opening five-day total of $2.87 million. It was directed by Choi Eun-ji and stars the reliable Ryu Seung-ryong.

Fourth place belonged to Korean-made crime-action film “Tomb of the River,” which debuted in second spot a week earlier and this time earned $378,000. After 12 days, “Tomb” has a cumulative total of $2.46 million. Local media report that major Korean films will go ahead with releases in time for Christmas or the lunar new year holidays in early February. Prominent among these are political drama “Kingmaker,” which has been sitting on the shelf since 2019 and will now attempt a release in December. So too will romance “Happy New Year.”
