Hoyo Bus Korea said that not only Korean but also foreign users visited the event venue, and that the outdoor stage installed outside the event venue, secondary creative exhibition, and drone show were also well received.
Hoyo Bus has held several events on individual games in Korea, and participated in G-STAR in 2022, but this is the first time it has held an exclusive event with its own games.
As a large number of people flocked to the event venue, unexpected incidents and accidents occurred.
On the 1st, the second day of the event, a teenage male posted a post saying, ‘There is a bomb hidden in the bag of a person waiting at the KINTEX venue,’ causing an uproar as visitors evacuated.

On the 3rd, the last day, a similar bomb threat post was posted, and the police, military, and fire departments were dispatched, and citizens experienced inconvenience, but no safety accidents occurred.
