Jang Hang-jun coffee truck, City Hall Station paralyzed

On the 12th, director Jang Hang-jun held a coffee truck event in front of Seoul City Hall to express his gratitude for the box office success of the movie 'The King and the Jester'. The scene, which showcased popularity rivaling that of idols, was packed with citizens and office workers, creating a sea of people.

Fans voluntarily lined up two hours before the event began, and the 200 cups of coffee prepared were quickly sold out. Coinciding with lunchtime, over 1,000 people gathered to see Director Jang.

Cheers erupted when Director Jang appeared, and he said, "I am grateful for the box office success, and I hope the success of 'The King and the Jester' will be a boost for Korean cinema." During the photo time, he shared a joyful moment with the citizens through cheerful poses.

Citizens remarked, "I've never seen so many people gather for a coffee truck event hosted by a director before," and "​Director Jang's human charm seems to resonate with the public."

'The King and the Jester' achieved great success, surpassing 12 million cumulative viewers. Instead of the 10 million viewer pledge he playfully made before the release, Director Jang repaid the audience's love through the coffee truck event. The coffee truck bore the slogan 'The Man Who Repays with Coffee, Jang Hang-jun'.
