Gucci Cruise 2024 After Party challenge

However, the after party held in the vicinity of Gyeongbokgung Palace, Seoul, faced some challenges. Reports indicate that a significant number of noise complaints, totaling 52, were filed by residents living near the palace on the evening of May 16 KST. The escalating complaints led to the arrival of police cars, including riot police, at the scene. The noise disruptions prompted action from law enforcement, and the after party organisers received a fine for violating the Noise Control Act. 

Critics argued that the choice of the ‘D’ building near Gyeongbokgung Palace for the after party was ill-advised due to its distinctive design and wide windows, which likely amplified the noise. Complaints flooded online platforms, with some individuals claiming they could hear the music as if it were being played on the streets. Others mentioned that the laser lights used during the event were overwhelming. 

The Gucci Cruise 2024 Fashion Show, held at Geunjeongjeon within Gyeongbokgung Palace, was a significant event celebrating Gucci’s 25th anniversary in South Korea. Alia Bhatt’s presence as the newly appointed Indian Global Ambassador garnered immense excitement among her fans, who congratulated her on social media following the announcement.
