[영상] Starbucks rejects “reason for evacuating” without Sayuri mask & Sayuri apologizes-Reporter Jisoo Seong

[성지수 기자] Sayuri revealed the story of evacuating with her child after a fire broke out in the basement of the apartment she lived in through her SNS on the 24th.

He left the building at the time and entered Starbucks, located across from the apartment, but was unable to verify the electronic access list (QR code) because he was unable to bring his mobile phone to the apartment.

Sayuri said, “I was kicked out of a cafe I visited to evacuate Jen to a warm and safe place because I didn’t have a QR code. I asked her to stay indoors for a while, but she was rejected.”

This spread rapidly online, and Starbucks explained that it was only responding in accordance with the government’s COVID-19 quarantine guidelines.

Starbucks said, “When Sayuri-nim visited, the QR code could not be checked, so I guided the handwritten list. If you write it by hand, you must check it with your ID card. I asked if I had an ID, but it was not there, so I was forced to explain the situation and the staff member I know that this politely asked for your understanding.”

He added, “Although we are in an embarrassing situation, we couldn’t ignore that a bigger situation could happen if we violated the policy set by the corona19 situation, and I heard that we’ve said it again and again because we applied the same to other people.”

Broadcaster Sayuri apologized for the’Starbucks’ controversy.

Sayuri posted an apology on her Instagram today (25th) saying, “I sincerely apologize to the Starbucks staff who made me feel uncomfortable all day because of the emotional post I wrote yesterday.”

Sayuri lowered his head, saying, “I apologize once again for rude behavior, thinking only of my position and not taking into account any circumstances that could damage the store and staff.”

He said, “The whole world is having a hard time due to the corona, and there was a principle that must be followed, but I made a big mistake in my very urgent heart.” “I was afraid to go to the hospital with a small baby because of the corona, but Starbucks is not a shelter. I tried to stay on for a while, but even now, my thoughts were short,” he said.

This news was also delivered to Japan, and Japanese netizens responded as follows.

“Please don’t overdo the cafe clerk.. There is also a library.” “The child is held by a sitter, and the mother is holding a dog and flees… If it’s urgent, wouldn’t it be normal to hold my child and run away?” “The thing that Japanese people hate by Koreans is a white infant. Living in anti-Japanese Korea. That’s rejected.”” That’s what Starbucks Korea does! Don’t hang on to Japan only when you are comfortable! I responded.
