The movie 'The Thieves' has become the 2nd highest grossing film in Korean cinema history.

According to the distributor of 'The Thieves', as of August 30th 5:00pm, the movie has been seen by over 12,310,000 people. This surpasses the 12,302,831 that watched 'The King and the Clown' and is starting to creep up to 'The Host', which is the highest grossing Korean film with 13,019,740 movie viewers.

'The Thieves' reached the 12.31 million mark in just 37 days since release, which is a day quicker than 'The Host', and many are curious to see whether it will be able to break the record to become the highest grossing film in the nation.
