Hong Kong actor and singer Jordan Chan faced audience backlash during his recent concert in Beijing. The 58-year-old star's performance was marred by complaints from attendees whose views of the stage were significantly blocked by stage designs, including large moving figures.
Frustrated fans took to social media to express their disappointment, with many stating they could only see the performers clearly for about 10% of the show. Some audience members even left the concert early due to the poor viewing experience. The situation led to calls for ticket refunds.
Everyone's suggestions have been heard, and we will definitely improve until everyone is satisfied.
Responding to the widespread criticism, Chan issued a tearful apology during his second concert. He acknowledged hearing the feedback and vowed to make improvements. His wife, Cherrie Ying, also publicly supported him, humorously noting his distress over the reviews and emphasizing the importance of listening to audience feedback.
Big Man read too many reviews and cried so hard today. Listening to advice is the way to go, otherwise I wouldn't be able to see you clearly either.
