Criticism is mounting as news of the "Mr Trot" Cheongju Broadcasting Area Concert is announced, while social distance for prevention of corona 19 is upgraded to the 4th stage of Seoul Capital Area.
On July 12, when the 4th phase of the Seoul Capital Area was upgraded, an online community posted a photo of the 'Mr Trot' Concert held at Cheongju Broadcasting in Chungbuk last weekend.
In the photo, more than 2,000 spectators were caught filling the seats so tightly that it was difficult to find a gap. There was no room in the crowd, blue T-shirts and blue glowing bars, and it was not strange when and where the rain came from and close contact.
The performance was held four times in two days on the 10th and 11th of the last day with 'Mr Trot TOP6 National Tour Concert Cheongju Broadcasting Performance' tomorrow. Considering that it is a venue that can accommodate 2,500 audiences at a time, at least 10,000 people seem to have gathered to see this performance.
Currently, Cheongju Broadcasting City is applying the first stage of social distance, so there is no limit to whether it is performing, whether it is in the theater, or when it is operating. In principle, there is no problem with 'Mr Trot' performing.
In addition, 'Mr Trot' announced a notice that "We will prevent the spread of corona 19 by operating a companion street seating system, mandatory wearing a mask, mandatory measurement of body temperature, writing a paperboard, prohibiting shouting (Techang), slogans, standing, prohibition of bringing food except water,
However, Seoul Capital Area has reached a level where daily life is virtually blocked, and the number of new confirmed cases is rising and falling to 1,000. It is also impossible to exclude the possibility that many Seoul Capital Area fans visited the 'Mr Trot' Cheongju Broadcasting performance.
No matter how thoroughly you observe the anti-virus rules, it seems unreasonable to perform 10,000 performances in the area of Cheongju Broadcasting, which is adjacent to the Seoul Capital Area, which is the fourth stage of distance. This is why criticism is that it should have canceled the Concert in advance or switched to non-face-to-face.
Canceling a scheduled performance is even more burdensome in that it breaks promises between The Artist and fans beyond financial damage. In the case of 'Mr Trot', which has gained syndrom popularity, it seems that the will and desire for the performance were deep.
But before returning the love of the fans, the important thing is to keep the health of the fans and The Artist. Just as Lee Chan-won was confirmed in Corona 19 last year and six members went into self-defense, Corona 19 does not deflect anyone. It is a better choice for fans to manage health safely than to perform the TOP6 because it is unreasonable. It is time to take a greater responsibility for 'Mr Trot'.
Meanwhile, 'Mr Trot' side decided to postpone Seoul and Suwon Concert indefinitely.
