Colin Firth vows to visit Korean fans
By Lee Ji-hye
Leading actor Colin Firth is “absolutely thrilled” by the overwhelming popularity of “Kingsman: The Secret Service,” which has topped Korean box offices for the past month.
“I knew it would hit a certain spot for some people,” Firth.
“But to see it do so well in a territory as important as Korea is certainly gratifying.”
Firth has never been to Korea, but says he will visit Seoul when the movie’s sequel is released.
“I’m dying to go — even more now, really,” Firth said. “There’s is no question I’ll go.”
The film has grossed almost $40 million according to Box Office Mojo.
