The feat, which comes 32 days after release, was widely expected as the film hit the 1 million mark just four days after hitting theaters and the 5 million mark in 16 days.

Previous hits that drew over 10 million cinemagoers include "Silmido", "Taegukgi: The Brotherhood of War", "The King and the Clown", "The Host", "Haeundae", "The Thieves" and "Masquerade".

The film is about a group of prisoners who embark on a mission to help a new inmate -- a mentally disabled man -- reunite with his 7-year-old daughter.
