Movie Theater Halts Screening After Disruptive Audience Member Shines Phone Light and Mutters in Chinese

A movie screening was disrupted by noisy behavior, including talking to oneself and using a cell phone flashlight.

A disturbance caused by a Chinese audience member's disruptive behavior led to a movie being halted and the police being dispatched.

The incident reportedly occurred during a screening of The Odyssey at a movie theater in Incheon on the 19th.

Starting about 30 minutes before the end of the three-hour film, the audience member in question began disturbing others by breathing heavily and using a cell phone with the screen brightness turned up to maximum.

The individual reportedly caused a disturbance by loudly talking to themselves in Chinese.

When exasperated audience members protested, the commotion did not stop, and some viewers even gave up on watching the movie and left.

As the argument escalated and the disruption grew, the theater ultimately suspended the screening, and police responding to a report escorted the problematic audience member from the scene, bringing the situation to a close.

The theater reportedly issued an apology and compensated the affected audience members with free movie tickets.
