The film follows Jung-woo (Cho), a former star pilot who, after losing his job due to sexist remarks, resorts to disguising himself as a woman in a desperate attempt to revive his faltering career. Assuming his sister's identity, Jung-woo secures a position with an airline and becomes an overnight sensation following a successful emergency landing. However, his -- or rather, her -- newfound fame leads to escalating complications. "Deadpool and Wolverine," the Hollywood action-comedy, slipped to second place, drawing approximately 261,000 viewers over the weekend. T he animated features "Despicable Me 4" and "Inside Out 2" secured the third and fourth spots, respectively. Source: Yonhap News Agency
