Film Box Office Sluggish in April

The number of local moviegoers in April was the lowest in two years.

According to theater chain CJ CGV, a total of 2,5530,378 and 7,468,016 people visited movie theaters in Seoul and South Korea each, the lowest figure since April 2003.

It reported that the number of filmgoers during the month's third weekend plunged to some 216,000 in Seoul, the lowest since the fourth week of June 2002, when the nation was occupied with the World Cup. "It was because the month had no blockbusters", the firm said.
