'So I Married an Anti-Fan' suffered from rigged ticket sales!

Fans buying tickets to see the movie featuring EXO's Chanyeol and Girls' Generation's Seohyun noticed that their movie theaters were rigging ticket sales against the movie. Fans uploaded photo proof of their movie tickets, showing that even though they bought their tickets for 'So I Married an Anti-Fan', the movie ticket printed was something else, meaning their ticket sales counted for another movie.

The photos uploaded show that 'So I Married an Anti-Fan' is printed very faintly on their tickets. However, checking the QR code on the tickets show that the tickets registered as Lee Min Ho's 'Bounty Hunters'.

As many fans are noticing the same thing, there is an incredible demand for the rigging to be corrected. What do you think will happen?

Me and my sister went to see it today in Maryland, US.. we were the only ones at the theater, but our tickets had the correct title on it.

The Facebook comments have a lot of people saying "well the movie just isn't good just deal with it" but that's not even the issue here. The issue is that another movie is getting credit where credit isn't due. I went to see it in Chicago a couple of days ago, but there wasn't even a poster for the movie anywhere in the theater. My ticket still said "No one's life is easy" but it was weird how no one knew about it besides the maybe 8 people in the theater. It deserves better, Chanyeol deserves better etc etc etc

So to summarize, they're insinuating that bounty hunters people paid theaters to rig ticket sales in their favour?

Rigging box office is very common in China

??? I don´t get it. You buy tickets for this "So I married an anti-fan" and get tickets for another movie? Means you have to watch a random movie, you didn´t choose? Were those tickets bought online or at the theatre? Because at the theatre you could probably complain about the wrong ticket and get the right one, no?

What they probably mean is the "So I married an anti-fan" movie production will get less profit from ticket sales due to some of the theater cheat their way using another movie title for the tickets. (Movie company usually get profit from theater ticket sales), perhaps the profit percentage for Bounty Hunters is more lower than this movie or other reason. btw can't they make the movie title more appealing :D

just found out the other reason is, to discredit Bounty Hunters ticket sales by saying the theater make mistake with this movie ticket, so it could be just a lee min ho hater posting that edited image. or the reason i stated above

Thank u for your explanations. This is really weird. And me too, I think the title is really horrible. Too long and it is already a spoiler itself.

Viewers still watch what they want to watch. "Stealing box office" is very common in mid and small cities were daily corruption is less controlled. Theaters will give the ticket sales to a certain movie, not necessarily profit, so that the movie can hype up it's box office (which is tracked real-time) for media coverage and report that it's doing better than actual sales
