The popularity of ‘THE FIRST SLAM DUNK’, an animation based on the million-selling basketball cartoon ‘Slam Dunk’, does not know how to cool down. As of the 2nd, the cumulative number of audiences has far exceeded 2 million (2,071,879), but considering the still topical interest in the work, interest in the work is not going to fade easily.


The expectation that it would receive explosive support from men, especially those in their 70s and 80s, was just right. The work properly stimulated the nostalgia of the so-called slam dunk generation and brought them back to the screen after they had grown old and forgot about comics. In addition to this, what is encouraging is the fact that there is a lot of support from female audiences and fans in their 20s. Looking at the trend of viewing by gender and age, female audiences accounted for a whopping 31%, and those in their 20s also accounted for 19%.


It is a popularity that is not envied by a moderate Hollywood blockbuster. It can be said that it is an encouraging phenomenon for Japanese animation, which is not a Disney work. In the meantime, Slam Dunk has been animated in various forms such as TV series and theatrical versions. The popularity was not bad, but it did not attract enough explosive attention to appeal to other countries like this work.


Analysts say that the secret to success at the box office was that Takehiko Inoue, the original author of Slam Dunk, was in charge of directing and writing the screenplay, and that the drawing style was very similar to the original work. So far, men in their 30s and 40s have been classified as a customer group that does not have a significant influence on the consumption of various cultural contents. However, as can be seen from the firepower of the 7080 uncle unit for this Slam Dunk movie, it has been confirmed that they can open their wallets and become enthusiastic fans as long as they suit their taste. This is why other industries are also closely examining the current situation. 메이저놀이터


One of the biggest charms of Slam Dunk is the fact that each character in the work reveals their individuality and emits a sense of presence. Kang Baek-ho, the main character who has just started playing basketball but has one of the best talents, Seo Tae-woong, a technician with the image of a cool man with chic charm, Jeong Dae-man, a once-promising fireworks shooter who has returned after wandering, Song Tae-seop, a small giant who is small but has an amazing distribution, and basketball more than anyone else. Even sincere model student King Kong captain Chae Chi-soo… The basic storyline of Slam Dunk depicts the dreams, passion, and unstoppable challenges of the 5 basketball teams of Buksan High School who dream of winning national championships.
