[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Young-eun] Amid the surge of patients and deaths due to the COVID-19 pandemic, American actor Bruce Willis was denied entry after visiting a pharmacy in Los Angeles (LA) on the 11th (local time) without wearing a mask, violating quarantine rules.

According to US entertainment media Page Six on the 13th (local time), Bruce Willis visited a pharmacy in LA without wearing a mask.

Customers inside the store reportedly expressed dissatisfaction upon seeing Willis without a mask, and the store staff asked Willis to wear a mask, but he ignored the request. The staff told Willis that he had to leave the store if he did not wear a mask, and eventually, Willis left the pharmacy with a stern expression.

Page Six reported, "Although Willis had a scarf to cover his face, he did not wear it, which angered the people in the store." Another US media outlet, Fox News, also stated, "Willis seemed displeased with the mask-wearing request," adding, "Willis chose to leave the pharmacy without purchasing anything."

Following criticism on social media regarding Bruce Willis's 'no mask' behavior, he issued an official statement saying, "There was an error in judgment." He also urged, "Let's all stay safe and continue to wear masks safely when outside."

Meanwhile, the cumulative number of confirmed COVID-19 cases in LA County currently exceeds 940,000, with total deaths surpassing 12,000, as the pandemic continues.
