TORONTO, ONTARIO and SEOUL, KOREA--(Marketwire - May 22, 2012) - Spackman Equities Group Inc. ("SEGI") (TSXV:SQG) announced today that ALL ABOUT MY WIFE, a romantic comedy produced by its Korean movie production subsidiary, Zip Cinema Co., Ltd. ("Zip"), finished #1 at the Korean box office this past weekend. Through favourable critical and word-of-mouth reviews and its star-studded lineup, ALL ABOUT MY WIFE knocked off Hollywood blockbuster, AVENGERS, from its two week hold on the top spot. The movie posted the best opening weekend performance to date by a domestic film in 2012. According to official data provided by the Korea Box Office Information System, ALL ABOUT MY WIFE sold an estimated 887,774 tickets since its opening day on May 17, 2012, grossing more than KRW 6.74 billion (CAD 5.88 million) over its first 5 days, and capturing over 30% of the nation's box office gross revenues during the period.

With a total budget of approximately KRW 4.9 billion (CAD 4.27 million), ALL ABOUT MY WIFE is a romantic comedy directed by Min Gyoo-dong and features top Korean stars, Im Soo-jeong, Lee Seon-gyoon, and Ryoo Seung-yong. Lee plays a timid husband that marries a seemingly perfect wife, but quickly discovers her overbearing nature is too much for him to handle. To justify asking for a divorce, he asks a womanizer (Ryoo) to seduce his wife, but the honey trap does not turn out as expected.

The last film produced by Zip, WOOCHI, was Korea's number one film of the year in 2009 in terms of tickets sold (over 6.2 million tickets). With the box office success of ALL ABOUT MY WIFE, Zip, led by its founder and CEO Eugene Lee, whom Hollywood's Variety selected in 2007 as one of the world's "10 Producers to Watch," has reconfirmed its reputation as one of the most skilled and respected film production firms in Asia.
