The historical drama The King’s Warden has debuted at No. 1 at the global weekend box office, drawing over 760,000 moviegoers in its first three days. Directed by Jang Hang-jun, the film has already surpassed the 1 million cumulative audience mark just days after its release. The story, which reimagines the tragic exile of a young king through his unlikely friendship with a village chief, has resonated strongly with audiences, signaling a continued trend for high-budget historical epics. 

In North America, the survival thriller Send Help claimed the top spot during the Super Bowl weekend, benefiting from a lack of major new studio competition. Meanwhile, the South Korean production Choir of God held the runner-up position, continuing its strong run. This diverse global box office performance highlights a shifting landscape where international features are increasingly competing with traditional Hollywood blockbusters for the top rankings.
