At the premiere of "Only You", there was a long queue outside the cinema. Most of them were couples.
Ban Soo, who was alone, seemed a little out of place, but continued to stand in queue. After learning that Sang Young 's new movie was finally released, she had immediately made up her mind to come and see its premiere.
As a professional film critic, she didn't have to go out of her way to wait for a movie to be publicly shown in the cinema.
Instead, she would first get information from various online channels and estimate whether a movie was worth watching before she bought a ticket to watch it.
Her fans would also go to her Wave to recommend some high-quality movies to her for reviewing.
Atlantis Princess was recommended to her by her fans. Otherwise, wouldn't she have to spend time watching so many bad movies? Yea, some movies were really bad, like the one she watched recently.
Yes, that's right. It was "Once Upon A Time". The reason she went to see this movie, of course, was because of the stake between Han Suk and Sang Young. Also, in terms of box office score and hype, this movie was indeed worth seeing. But she was disappointed after watching it.
The plot was very ordinary, and the routines were so bad that even elementary school students would find them bad. What really put her off was the acting of the young actors.
If there was a truly talented actor who could carry the show, not just popular traffic ones, this movie wouldn't have fallen to this level.
It really made her scalp tingle. Obviously, this was how these box office revenues came about.
So after watching this movie, Ban Soo's expectations for Atlas's movie were even higher. As long as his new movie could perform at the level of the previous movie, it would be on course to beat Han Suk's new movie.
Although now both the industry and the outside world believed that Atlas had a greater chance of losing this wager, Ban Soo never did.
Indeed, judging from the box office alone, Han Suk's movie indeed looked unstoppable. The two competing directors had the same subject matter, but Han Suk had the first-mover advantage after all.
Judging from external reviews, the reputation of the movie was also excellent. Otherwise, Ban Soo wouldn't have gone to see it, but after watching it, she was able to give a very accurate conclusion.
At least two-thirds of these reputations were fake!
She was now waiting for Han Suk to take off his shoes and put them on Sang Young's feet. After all, the previous work of Sang Young, Atlantis Princess, was very much to her liking.
Although now the outside world almost unanimously believed that Sang Young was unlikely to surpass himself, Ban Soo believed he would, for no reason whatsoever. From the perspective of a professional film critic, she believed in Sang Young.
Ban Soo, sitting in the cinema, was a little excited and anxious. She was really looking forward to what new surprises Sang Young could bring her this time.

At the same time, the new queen of Kpop, Sin Yoon, posted the movie ticket stub of "Only You". In her mind, there was no way Han Suk could be compared to Sang Young. Especially after watching his movie, she was even more certain. There was a world of difference between the two.
But in case anything unexpected happened, she hoped her post on Wave could act as a blatant publicity in regards to her fans: your queen has gone to the movies, so who has any reason not to go?
In addition, thanks to Chang Mi-Sun's unremitting promotion. As well as the hype surrounding this wager, it was hard not to know about the release of this movie.
Although in the eyes of many people, it would be difficult for this movie to surpass "Once Upon A Time" at the box office. Its revenue in the first week had already proved the value of Han Suk's film.
From a commercial perspective, there was really nothing wrong with Han Suk's movie.
