HINDI nakatakas sa “fake news” ang South Korean actor na si Ji Chang Wook, lalo na’t kaabang-abang ang kanyang “fan meeting” sa bansa sa susunod na buwan.
May kumalat kasi sa social media na bukod sa isasagawang “fan meet” sa Nov. 6 sa SM Mall of Asia Arena sa Pasay City ay magkakaroon din ito ng “fan signing event” sa Iloilo.
Totoong pupunta ang Korean star sa SM MOA, pero “fake news” daw ‘yung event sa Iloilo.
‘Inanunsyo ‘yan mismo ng talent agency na “Glorious Entertainment” sa Facebook.
Kasabay ng panawagan ng talent agency na huwag bumili sa mga “unauthoirzed sellers” ay naging “special mention” pa sa post ang organizer umano ng “signing event” na si Cleo Dimayuga.
Sey sa post, “We would like to inform you regarding false information that has been spreading regarding the 2022 Ji Chang Wook Fan Meeting Tour being held in the Philippines, specifically the ‘CLEO L. DIMAYUGA’ fan signing event in Iloilo.
“Any Event that is not notified by the official ticket seller and promoter (BENCH), including the contents of the ‘CLEO L. DIMAYUGA’ fan signing event uploaded on Facebook, will NOT be held.”
Dagdag pa ng Glorious Entertainment, “We hope that you take this into close consideration to avoid the purchase of any counterfeit tickets that are being sold by unauthorized sellers.
“We have reported the situation and are closely monitoring the situation actively to ensure no one is affected.”
Hinanap ng BANDERA ang social media account ni Cleo upang hingan ng reaksyon, ngunit tila ito’y nag-deactivate na ng account.
Samantala, Na-screenshot ng ilang netizens ang huling Facebook post ng umanong organizer bago pa mawala ang kanyang account.
Iginiit niya sa kanyang pahayag na tunay at hindi siya “scam.”
Umamin din siya na walang naka-schedule sa Iloilo, pero nilinaw niya na inimbitahan niya nang personal ang aktor sa pamamagitan ng online messaging na magpunta roon at pumayag naman daw ang talent agency.
Saad sa post, “To those who were circulating that Ji Chang-Wook visit in iloilo is a scam, I would like to correct you that it is not a scam.
“Originally, Ji has no schedule in Iloilo — however I encouraged him to come and visit my City Iloilo — and with my proposal the Management and Board of Glorious entertainment agreed. It’s a side trip visit as his original fan meet is in Manila,” aniya.
Sinabi niya rin na isa siyang “authorized representative” marketing agency ng bansa na “JCW Promotions.”
Sey niya, “Glorious, is working out right now to correct the mix reactions of people. I am initially posting this authorization that Glorious given to me, as a proof that I am an authorized representative for JCW promotions in the Philippines.”
Nakiusap pa siya na huwag siyang i-bash at kung hindi naman daw naniniwala sa kanya ay huwag nang bumili ng ticket.
“Please stop bashing if you do not have the legit source. This is a first hand informations directly to me as the representative of Glorious for this Iloilo trip,” patuloy niya sa post.
“If you have doubts, don’t buy the ticket (not yet ready for selling) and wait for further notice.
“It was my overwhelming post that I wanted to get the hype of the people, and see how many will be the audience so we can adjust the time of the event,” aniya.
Nakilala si Ji Chang Wook sa mga pagganap niya sa K-drama na “Healer,” “Backstreet Rookie,” at “Sound of Magic.”
