Shanghai's new Line Friends Cafe and Store
has shuttered its doors just two days after opening to the public due to concerns over the large queues that have been forming outside. The cutesy Japanese/Korean messaging app has reportedly faced disruption to its services in China, but that didn't stop Line from opening an outlet filled with merchandise and kawaii cupcakes last Friday, resulting in huge, err, lines on the streets outside.

Shanghai's new Line Friends Cafe and Store
has shuttered its doors just two days after opening to the public due to concerns over the large queues that have been forming outside. The cutesy Japanese/Korean messaging app has reportedly faced disruption to its services in China, but that didn't stop Line from opening an outlet filled with merchandise and kawaii cupcakes last Friday, resulting in huge, err, lines on the streets outside.
A notice stuck on the door of the cafe and store at SOHO Fuxing Plaza
last night stated that the management had decided to temporarily close
the space due to worries over the large numbers of people waiting in
scorching temperatures outside. Although the company had attempted to
mitigate the effects of the sunshine by erecting parasols where queues
had formed along the tree-lined Danshui Lu, as the crowds began to
stretch back to, and along, Fuxing Lu, they decided more drastic action
was needed.
'Seeing everyone queuing in the sun has made us very worried,' reads the
notice, 'and so to ensure the safety of all our customers and a
favourable shopping experience, we have no choice but to temporarily
suspend business.'
No reopening date has been given (the notice merely says more
information 'will be released soon'), though with Shanghai's heatwave
expected to last at least another two days, it seems unlikely that Line
will be welcoming back its hordes of fans before Wednesday.
Line Friends Cafe and Store is at Unit B101, SOHO Fuxing Plaza, 388 Madang Lu, near Fuxing Lu. .
