Film distributor CJ Entertainment announced on the 15th that it will cancel the stage greeting event for "Deliver Us from Evil," scheduled for the 17th. This is due to the spread of the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19). The number of new confirmed cases recorded in the 100s for the second consecutive day. Cases have been rapidly increasing like a snowball in Seoul and Gyeonggi Province, raising concerns that it might escalate into a "metropolitan area outbreak." The government raised the social distancing level to Level 2 in Seoul and Gyeonggi on the same day. CJ Entertainment stated, "We have decided to cancel the stage greeting to prevent and contain the spread of COVID-19," and asked for the audience's understanding. Meanwhile, "Deliver Us from Evil" surpassed 3 million cumulative viewers on the day.
