Prior to this, Lee Je-hoon, the main character of 'escape', planned to hold a face-to-face event on the 2nd to install a coffee truck and distribute coffee to citizens at a square located in Jung-gu, Seoul, to encourage the audience to watch. Fans also showed a lot of expectations for Lee Je-hoon's coffee gift and burned their will to participate.

However, on the night before the event, on the 1st, a reverse driving disaster occurred at the intersection near Exit 7 of City Hall Station, where a car drove backwards and rushed to India. The reverse driving disaster at City Hall Station led to massive casualties as citizens returned home after work in the middle of the city, where there are usually many floating populations. Nine pedestrians were killed and four others were injured in the accident. The driver who caused the reverse driving accident is insisting on sudden acceleration.



After various discussions, 'escape' side, which encountered the accident, canceled the event after consideration, arranging it to convey regret and condolences for unexpected casualties rather than events.

The place where 'escape' was intended to host the 'escape' coffee car event through Sports Chosun is adjacent to the place where the City Hall station reverse driving disaster occurred. "We decided to cancel the event abruptly because it was not appropriate to proceed with the event due to the timing of the event. "There has been no decision on whether to proceed with the coffee car event since then." he said.
