Additionally, to celebrate the big success, the production team has also released a special poster. Kim Go Eun, Lee Do Hyun, Choi Min Shik, and Yoo Hae Jin appear in the poster, where they are looking down at a dug grave.

On March 1, 2023, he made a social media post when the movie crossed 4 million viewers overall. The actor was seen in his military uniform from top to bottom, as he is currently serving as an active-duty soldier. He was also holding a tablet where the picture of his fellow cast members appeared, and he posed for a picture along with them.

In the detailed caption of the picture, he poured out his emotions. Mentioning his current military service, he regretfully expressed his inability to personally meet the fans, extending his apologies for resorting to social media for greetings. He then gleefully shared the news of Exhuma's remarkable success, crossing over 4 million viewers within a week of its premiere. Grateful for the unwavering support from fans, he acknowledged their presence throughout his journey. As a soldier serving presently, he looked forward to the possibility of celebrating more triumphs with his supporters around the same time next year.
