If you read the translated version, you might think, "Do they really understand Korean history and cultural elements like this?"
Plus, thanks to "Exhuma," it's widely known that the shape of South Korea resembles a tigerㅋㅋㅋ
-I really enjoyed 'Exhuma' and even watched it several times. I'm curious which parts of the movie resonated with people in these countries? I mean, it's so Korean... Maybe being Korean is universal?
-Wow... 'Exhuma' exceeded 3M viewers in Malaysia? That's crazyㅋㅋㅋ
-How did it get so many viewers in Malaysia?ㅋㅋㅋ
-It's making waves in Southeast Asia...
-This is amazing... Now, they should give us the sequel of 'Exhuma'
-It's fascinating how 'Exhuma' resonates well in Asia...ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-Occultism is quite similar everywhere in Asia. We also share similar histories with Southeast Asian countries. Besides, they really like horror movies.
-I find it really fascinating how foreigners can empathize with this movie.
-It's both happy and sad that it's popular in Southeast Asia. Maybe they understand the sentiment of the movie because they too have been colonized?
-No way... I'm curious about the reviews.
-Director Jang should be locked up until he comes up with a prequel or sequel of 'Exhuma'
-The director must be sitting on a pile of money right now
-Wow, but unless you're Korean, you wouldn't understand the sentiment of this movieㅋㅋㅋ We might have similar histories with other Asian countries, but Australia...?ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-The director must be getting rich.
-I really wanted to see this movie, but I heard it's scary, so I couldn't watch it.ㅠㅠ It seems to be a hit even overseas, ㅠㅠ
-Overall, it's a really well-made movie. It's immersive, fun, and has a good message. And now, it's proven to resonate internationallyㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-Malaysia also experienced Japanese colonizationㅠ
-Wow, no way... it's really amazing.
-Wow, this is incredible.
