Lee Seong-min "I was heartbroken because the parking lot was empty these days. There seems to be no one in the theater. There are many reasons, but actors are very difficult when there is no audience in the theater. I really want to die if I release a movie in such a period. Still, it's the actors who have to deal with it, so please give us a lot of strength and help us finish our movie well." Song Joong-ki nodded as if he sympathized.
As for Lee Hee-jun, the movie "Bogota" has lower grades than we expected, but I feel that it's precious to say hello to each and every one of the people who came today. It is a valuable movie that was released through the direct hit of COVID-19. Thank you for paying attention to the end, watching, and coming to GV. He expressed his honest feelings about the poor box office performance.
Finally, Song Joong-ki finished his schedule related to Bogota with the end of the `GV.' "I'm truly honored to spend this last time with Sungmin." "As you said, Korean movies are very difficult these days, but I'm grateful that they are in the theater. That's why Korean movies are so difficult Looking at it, I worked harder to promote it than ever before. I want to let them know. I want to look pretty. I want to say thank you to everyone who came to see our movie," he said to the audience.
