The cafe opened by the couple Lee Hyori and Lee Sang-soon posted an apology two days after they opened and announced that they would change the operating method to a 'reservation system'.
Lee Sang-soon opened a small cafe in Dongbok-ri, Gujwa-eup, Jeju on the 1st.
Lee Sang-soon, who became the owner of the cafe, greeted her customers by pouring coffee directly, and Hyori Lee visited her cafe and took commemorative photos with her customers, communicating with her customers without hesitation.
As a cafe where you can meet the couple Lee Hyori and Lee Sang-soon in person, word of mouth spread, and the cafe quickly became a 'hot place' in Jeju.
In front of the cafe, there was a line of people waiting in line even before it opened, and the line sometimes continued for more than 100m.
There were customers who waited in line, but turned away as the ingredients ran out within an hour of opening.
Concerns have been raised that this cafe may cause damage to nearby residents when a quiet neighborhood is crowded.
In the end, the cafe decided to change the operating method to a 'reservation system'.
On the 2nd, on the cafe's official SNS, an apology was posted, "Those who waited for a long time in hot weather, and those who died because they could not receive more guests due to running out of ingredients. Thank you very much and I'm sorry."
He continued, "I think it will cause inconvenience to nearby residents to operate as it is, so for the time being, we have decided that we will have to operate by reservation system. We ask for your understanding.
"Once again, I'm sorry, thank you," she added.
