Lim Young-woong delivers to the era of global heroes

Singer Lim Young-woong’s global power stands out. The movie 'I'm Hero the Final', which features a live concert, has confirmed its overseas release.

'I'm Hero the Final' has confirmed its release in four countries: Malaysia, Hong Kong, the United States, and Thailand in April. Beyond its domestic popularity, it has expanded its reach to the global market.

Previously, BTS' movie 'BTS: Old To Come in Cinema' confirmed its release in 128 countries around the world. Although 'I'm Hero the Final' is in four countries, Lim Young-woong's global popularity is no less than that of BTS.

‘I’m Hero the Final’ was released in Korea on the 1st. 'I'm Hero the Final' is a film that contains the live performance of Lim Young-woong's national tour encore concert 'I'm Hero (IM HERO)' held at Gocheok Sky Dome in Seoul last December.

It attracted 51,972 people on the first day of release in Korea and 16,873 people on the second day. Currently, the cumulative number of viewers is 68,845, ranking 3rd in the box office. Currently, the real-time reservation rate (as of 2 p.m. on the 3rd) is 14.7% (61,912 people), ranking 3rd.

On the first day of the release of 'I'm Hero the Final', Lim Young-woong held an event by randomly selecting one theater at CGV Yongsan I'Park Mall and one theater at CGV Yeongdeungpo. This was a surprise event to meet Heroic Generation (fanclub name).

Lim Young-woong delivered a special MD with a handwritten signature along with a thank you note. In addition, he even gave a song as a gift, including singing a line of ‘My love that is like starlight.’ With 'I'm Hero the Final' confirmed to be released in four overseas countries, Lim Young-woong has also delivered a gift to the global hero era.
