The comedy-action film The Boss (directed by Ra Hee-chan) dominated the Chuseok box office, holding the No.1 spot for seven consecutive days and surpassing its break-even point within a week of release.

According to the Korean Film Council's box office data, The Boss attracted 1,724,157 moviegoers during the Chuseok holiday period (October 3–9), bringing its cumulative total to 1,729,426 viewers.

The film reached its break-even point of 1.7 million admissions in just seven days. On Chuseok Day (October 6), it recorded a 40.4% seat occupancy rate, showing strong family audience turnout throughout the holiday.

Comic Action with a Twist

The Boss tells the story of gang members who compete — and at the same time yield — for the title of the next boss, each driven by their own personal dreams. The film offers a fresh and humorous take on the typical gangster genre, replacing bloody rivalry with absurd generosity.
