Meanwhile, "The Great Flood," released Friday, debuted at No. 1 on the service's non-English movies chart for the same period.

Directed by Kim Byung-woo, the sci-fi disaster film garnered 27.9 million views, dwarfing the Norwegian runner-up "Troll 2," which attracted 3.1 million views.

The film depicts the struggles of An-na, played by Kim Da-mi, a single mother of a 6-year-old son who suddenly wakes up in the middle of a devastating flood that engulfs her apartment complex and, by extension, the planet. She fights to protect her young son as she navigates the inundated building.
