Ji Chang Wook’s Convenience Store Event Under Fire For Breaking Social Distancing Rules
On August 3, actor Ji Chang Wook appeared in Sinchon at a GS25 convenience store to work for a day, which ended up with a massive crowd gathering that did not abide by the appropriate “social distancing” rules.

The convenience store posted on their official Instagram to come visit the store to catch a glimpse of Ji Chang Wook.
As more and more fans gathered to catch a glimpse of the actor, space filled up quick and even blocked traffic on the street. Although the event was supposed to go on until 6 PM, they had to wrap up early around 2:30 PM KST due the overwhelming number of people.
Fans who saw the photos online criticized the event as it was seen unsafe and could further the spread of COVID-19. What do you think of this situation? Do the organizers of this event deserve to be under fire for going through with this activity?
