The South Korean animated film “King of Kings” is set to premiere domestically next month following a record-breaking run in North America.

Since its release in April, the film has grossed 81-point-five billion won, approximately 59 million U.S. dollars, in ticket sales, surpassing “Parasite” to become the most successful film abroad that was fully produced in South Korea.

Directed by Jang Seong-ho, the story follows British author Charles Dickens and his son Walter as they travel back two-thousand years to witness the life of Jesus.

The Korean-dubbed version features an all-star voice cast, including Lee Byung-hun, Lee Hanee, Cha In-pyo and Jin Seon-kyu.
