Pann: 7 Korean movies that flopped completely

1. [+98, -1] I'm an ajussi who remembers Resurrection of the Little Match Girl and it's not even something to laugh about. The production cost 11B won isn't the 11B in the present day. It was 11B 20 years ago, which is equivalent to 50~100B. They filmed whatever they wanted... The main actors were the CF girl of SKT Im Eun Kyung who had no acting experience and a rapper Kim Jin Pyo who is an MC on Show Me The Money... The food cost for the staff was big enough but towards 2/3 of the filming process, the director said, "Now Eun Kyung's acting seems stable. Can we re-film everything from the beginning?" Because of this one movie, 3 production companies and 3 buildings were sold away.

2. [+67, -2] Rain contributed a lot to making Race to Freedom Um Bok Dong flop. It was so inconsiderate of him to post on Instagram like that. Because of him, people didn't even anticipate the movie anymore.

3. [+62, -1] The netizen comments are so funny ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

4. [+51, -1] Where's this movie... I'm OK with anything so I enjoyed Sector 7 but this movie was a total waste of my money.



5. [+30, -0] I avoided all... Let me compliment myself.

6. [+11, -0] Give my money back. There were like 10 people in the theatre... I should've known at that time, ugh...
