Jang Keun Suk showed off his box office power on the Japanese silver screen.


On February 2, Box Office Mojo, a website that tracks box office revenue in a systematic and algorithmic way in the United States, said that the movie You’re My Pet, which was released in Japan on January 21, earned 2,424,009 dollars by January 29. The movie ranked ninth in box office receipts in the second week.


What makes the record is even more remarkable, is that the movie is only screening on 92 screens in Japan. The movie is a romantic comedy based on the popular Japanese comic book with the same title. Jang, who is very popular in Japan, appeared in the movie, and helped release the movie in both Korea and Japan.


The movie was released in November of last year in Korea and earned only 3.8 billion won receiving 540 thousand viewers. The movie, however, ranked fifth in the first week of its release and earned over 2.7 billion won in the second week.
