Ha Jung Woo and Gong Hyo Jin Facing Backlash for Late Arrival at Event
Actors Ha Jung Woo and Gong Hyo Jin are under fire after showing up late to their own event. The controversy erupted at the open talk event for their upcoming film, The People Upstairs, held in Busan on September 19.
The duo was scheduled to start at 11 AM KST but arrived at 11:14 AM, leaving fans frustrated after waiting. The event was supposed to be broadcast live, and the host explained their tardiness was due to heavy traffic.
Instead of offering an apology, they began the session without acknowledging the late arrival. Audiences were left disappointed, especially since both actors wore sunglasses despite the cloudy weather, masking their faces from the eager crowd.
K-Netizens are furious.
“Apologize if you’re late.”
“They didn’t even apologize? This is really surprising.”
“If it was scheduled for 11 AM, it isn’t even that early…”
Critics are questioning their professionalism and expressing disbelief at the lack of courtesy shown. The backlash is growing, with many demanding an explanation from both actors.
Looks like this incident isn’t fading anytime soon!
