As of Wednesday, 5pm (Korean time), The Host has surpassed the 10 million admissions mark at the box office, after only 21 days. Tuesday was a national holiday in Korea (August 15, Liberation Day), so it really gave the film a boost.

To put this in perspective, here’s a list of all the Korean films that reached 10 million in admissions, and how long it took them to get there:

The Host (괴물) - 21 days
Tae Guk Gi (태극기 휘날리며) - 39 days
King and the Clown (왕의 남자) - 45 days
Silmido (실미도) - 58 days.
