According to the Korean Film Council’s box office data on the 23rd, Jjanggu ranked third on its opening day (22nd) with 26,848 admissions nationwide.

The film follows an aspiring actor’s passionate journey, continuing the narrative of the 2009 film Wind.

Actor Jung Woo returns after 17 years, taking on both directing and leading roles in the sequel.

Its opening performance fell short of expectations compared to industry forecasts.

However, given the original film’s later success through TV and IPTV, the sequel’s long-term performance is expected to depend on audience reviews and word of mouth.
