It’s time for another Tuesday Turnip wherein I type a random phrase and we see what kind of interesting factoids “turn-up.”

Today I typed in “unprecedented record” unearthing the following

• The film [Seopyeonje] documented the traditional music of Korea with beautiful scenery and became one of those films that every Korean had to see. Just in Danseong Theater, the film was screened for a record-breaking 196 days, attracting 1,035,000 people and becoming the first film to bring in over one million audiences. This record is broken yet again after a few years by director Kang Je-gyu’s [Swili]. The film was released around Lunar New Year’s Day in 1999 and attracted 2,450,000 audiences just in Seoul, setting an unprecedented record in Korean film history.

• In a very tight market, one rate record after another was set for offshore vessels this spring. Two Solstad vessels, the “Normand Master” and the “Normand Neptun”, set an unprecedented record this decade when they were chartered in April to oil company Total at GBP 65,000 per day.
