Movie Cast Members Get Stuck In The Elevator— Fans Disappointed With Reimbursement From CGV

They felt the theater needed to compensate something more.

Recently, the movie The Roundup: Punishment was released in theaters and garnered much attention from fans of the series. However, during a stage greeting scheduled in Hongdae, the cast members got stuck in the elevator, causing the greeting portion to be canceled. The theater revealed that it would be difficult to hold the stage greeting and would send movie tickets to everyone who attended.

In addition to the shocking news, audience members were disappointed with the attitude and how the theater dealt with the situation.

I was a victim of this stage greeting, and what made me more angry than not seeing the actors was the attitude of the CGV theater officials. They didn’t explain properly and had us wait for over 15 minutes, only to reimburse us with a 2D movie ticket coupon before sending us home. We didn’t receive a proper apology, and they even joked that the elevator couldn’t move because actor Ma Dong Seok was heavy.

They felt that the theater is responsible for the actors getting stuck in the elevator and that they needed to resolve the situation in a better manner.

Isn’t it CGV’s fault that the actors got stuck in the elevator yesterday? How can they ignore the audience and hand out movie tickets? I’ve gone to the theaters countless times to watch this movie, but do you really think we come just to watch the movie? So ridiculous…

Fans that attended the stage greeting, were reimbursed with a general 2D movie ticket due to the canceled event.

This is what we get? Is this for real? One free general 2D movie ticket valid until August??? This is what we get after a stage greeting is canceled?

The purpose of a stage greeting ticket is to be able to meet the actors before or after watching the movie. Fans were baffled that they reimbursed the time and effort of the fans with a regular movie ticket.

How many people do you think went there just to watch the movie? Of course, the actor’s safety comes first, but we were compensated with a general admission ticket…I don’t know about this.

Regardless of the situation, it was later revealed that the actors were able to get out safely and continue their stage greeting rounds.

The actors got out of the elevator safely and attended the Megabox stage greetings. Thankfully, no one was hurt!

Although fans were relieved to see that the actors were safely rescued from the elevator, they were disappointed in the way the theater handled the situation.
