Just one day before its official release, James Cameron's highly anticipated film 'Avatar: Fire and Ash' has already surpassed 510,000 pre-sale tickets, signaling immense global interest.

According to data from the Korean Film Council's integrated ticket network, as of 4 PM on the 16th, the film had secured an impressive 514,842 pre-sale tickets.

The sequel delves into a fractured Sully family. Following the loss of their eldest son, Neteyam, during the battle with the RDA in 'Avatar: The Way of Water,' Jake Sully (Sam Worthington) and Neytiri (Zoe Saldaña) grapple with profound grief. The narrative explores Jake's increasingly strict approach to protecting his family, contrasting with Neytiri's wavering beliefs, showcasing a vulnerable side of the couple never seen before.

Adding complexity, the film will explore Jake and Neytiri's differing emotions towards the human boy, Spider (Jack Champion), in the wake of their son's death, and the resulting friction within the family. Director James Cameron described the story as universally relatable, focusing on human emotion and the heart amidst the fantastical adventure.

The stakes are raised with the introduction of a formidable new adversary: Colonel Miles Quaritch (Stephen Lang). Having relentlessly pursued the Sully family in previous installments, Quaritch now allies with the Ash People, led by Varang (Oona Chaplin), to tighten his grip. The Ash People, displaced by volcanic eruptions and revering fire, join forces with Quaritch, gaining access to RDA technology and posing a significant threat to Pandora.

A key narrative element is the growth of the next generation of the Sully family and the revelation of their unique secrets as they face immense conflict. A critical development is Spider's newfound ability to breathe Pandora's atmosphere without a mask, posing a new challenge and sparking mixed reactions among the characters. Roar (Britain Dalton), burdened by guilt over his brother's death, Kiri (Sigourney Weaver), questioning her origins and mysterious powers, and the youngest, Tuktirey (Trinity Bliss), who vows the Sully family will never give up, are all set to undergo significant transformations.

'Avatar: Fire and Ash' chronicles the Sully family's struggle following Neteyam's death and their confrontation with the Ash People. The film is set to premiere worldwide on the 17th.

Netizens are buzzing with excitement, commenting things like 'Finally! I'm going to the premiere on day one!', 'I'm so curious about the Sully family's story,' and 'What kind of emotions and spectacle will this installment bring?'
