I'm about to die for my family, and I'm like, 'Cry quietly'..Controversy over the overuse of the filming crew
Hong Kong South China Morning Post



A Chinese production team has been controversial after it was revealed that they asked the family of intensive care patients to reduce their cries while filming at a hospital.

According to foreign media such as Hong Kong's South China Morning Post (SCMP) on the 1st (local time), the incident took place at a hospital in Zhengzhou, Henan Province, China on May 31. At that time, Yoo's mother was moved to the intensive care unit for emergency treatment, and the family members waiting outside the hospital room burst into tears at the sudden situation.

As the family began to cry, the crew approached and demanded "Can you cry more quietly?"



He was a crew member filming a short film in front of an unused operating room near the intensive care unit.

Does Yoo have to get permission to cry. He claimed, "What did we do to interrupt?" but even hospital officials came to warn him, saying, "If it interferes with the filming, the production team may sue the hospital."



Yoo's mother, who was hospitalized and treated in the intensive care unit, passed away that evening.

Yoo released a video of the situation on social media and said he had not received any apology from the production team.



As a result, criticism from the production team and the hospital flooded in. On top of that, public opinion worsened as it was claimed that a movie company official urged Yoo to delete the video several times.
