Last week at the domestic box office, the Korean movie ‘The Mathematician in Wonderland’ topped the Hollywood blockbuster ‘The Batman’.
In particular, a Korean movie with a total production cost of 7.5 billion won surpassed ‘The Batman,’ which cost more than 100 billion won to produce, confirming the importance of the film’s material and composition.

Hak-seong Lee, a genius mathematician who defected from North Korea!
He lives as a security guard at a private high school, hiding everything about himself.
Students avoid it because of his cold and blunt nature, but only one student, Han Ji-woo, insists on teaching him math.
Hak-seong Lee teaches how to find the right solution to Ji-woo Han, who is wandering in a world that only searches for the right answer.

Through difficult mathematics, the story between people is conveyed through actor Min-sik Choi.

The mathematician in Wonderland took the lead by beating Hollywood blockbusters, including The Batman and Blacklight starring Liam Neeson, which were released earlier.
As soon as it was opened, it exceeded expectations and climbed to the top of the seat share.
In the domestic film market, where Hollywood action films are strong, a human story with a gentle emotion has won.
‘The Mathematician in Wonderland’ has a total production cost of 7.5 billion won, far less than the 100 million dollar Batman.
In the end, it is confirmed once again that the discovery of original materials and a solid composition are important factors for the success of a movie.
