‘Elemental’, a green for discrimination and harmony for second-generation immigrants, surpasses 2 million… Faster than 'Slam Dunk'

The movie 'Elemental' has surpassed 2 million views. This is faster than the Japanese animation 'The First Slam Dunk'.

'Elemental' (director Peter Sohn) recorded a cumulative audience of 2,081,828 on the 2nd, exceeding 2 million viewers. Accordingly, a congratulatory video of director Peter Sohn and animator Lee Chae-yeon was released.

'Elemental', which ranks first in the box office and reservation rate every day despite the release of outstanding new works every week, creates over-immersive audiences with word of mouth that does not go out like Amber's flame, continuing the N-th viewing craze.

The score of 'Elemental' is the same as the speed of 'Super Mario Bros.'

Along with this, a congratulatory video was released by director Peter Sohn and animator Lee Chae-yeon to commemorate the 2 million audience breakthrough of 'Elemental'. In particular, he said that meeting with Korean audiences was even more special through his last visit to Korea, and he did not hide his joy at the box office sensation in the domestic theater district.

Animator Lee Chae-yeon was delighted, saying, "I'm happy to receive so much love in Korea. I hope we can go beyond waves and create splashes!" Director Peter Sohn conveyed his impressions from the perspective of Wade's character with an imaginative aspect, and he smiled by saying, "I'm too excited, so wouldn't it be nice to call my water friends and show them how to ride the waves of joy?" Then, he expressed his gratitude with a sketch of Amber and Wade's bright smiles.

'Elemental' tells the story of Amber, who is witty and full of passion like fire, meeting Wade, who is pleasant and emotional, and builds a special friendship in 'Element City', where the four elements of fire, water, air, and earth live.
