SEOUL, March 12 (AJP) - Director Jang Hang-jun shared the joy of his latest film’s huge box-office success with an up-close, personal event for Seoulites in central Seoul on Thursday.
Jang served around 200 cups of coffee in front of the Korea Press Center, expressing his gratitude to his fans.
The event was arranged as a gesture of appreciation after period film "The King's Warden" attracted over 10 million moviegoers, about a month after its release on Feb. 4.
A large crowd gathered at the venue even before the event began, and all the prepared coffee ran out quickly.
Citizens took photos with Jang and cheered in celebration of the film's success. The 117-minute film tells the story of Danjong, the sixth king of the Joseon Dynasty, who was exiled to Yeongwol in Gangwon Province.
