Overview
- Netflix withdrew the livestream component of its “Trigger Talk & Shot” fan event and will proceed with the in-person gathering as planned.
- The decision came after a July 20 incident in Songdo, Incheon, where a 62-year-old man allegedly killed his son with a homemade shotgun.
- Police arrested the suspect in Seoul’s Seocho District and seized 11 steel pipes and 86 rounds of ammunition.
- Director Kwon Oh-seung and star Kim Nam-gil have emphasized the show’s cautionary stance on gun use and urged viewers to separate its fictional narrative from real-world violence.
- The 10-episode thriller is still set to premiere on Netflix on July 25 as national awareness of gun violence intensifies.
