“Locus Corporation wishes to apologise regarding the first elements of our marketing campaign which we realise has had the opposite effect from that which was intended,” he said in a statement. “The advertising campaign is being terminated.” “Our film, a family comedy, carries a message designed to challenge social prejudices related to standards of physical beauty in society by emphasising the importance of inner beauty. “We appreciate and are grateful for the constructive criticism of those who brought this to our attention.” Hwang continued. “We sincerely regret any embarrassment or dissatisfaction this mistaken advertising has caused to any of the individual artists or companies involved with the production or future distribution of our film, none of whom had any involvement with creating or approving the now discontinued advertising campaign.”
