Hello, this is the movie team.

Director/actor Ha Jung-woo had to undergo emergency surgery today due to acute appendicitis while traveling to attend an official schedule.

Director/actor Ha Jung-woo had wanted to attend the event, but due to the doctor‘s opinion that the situation is difficult, he has inevitably been unable to attend the movie press conference, stage greeting, and empathy counseling center event scheduled for today.

We would like to express our sincere apologies to the reporters, film industry professionals, and audience members who will be watching the movie today.

All events will proceed as scheduled with the other actors except for Ha Jung-woo.

We ask for your deep understanding and the team hopes for Ha Jung-woo’s speedy recovery.
