Python - BeautifulSoup error while scraping

Question

UPDATE: Using lxml instead of html.parser helped solve the problem, as Freddier suggested in the answer below!

I am trying to webscrape some information off of this website: https://www.ticketmonster.co.kr/deal/952393926 .

I get an error when I run soup(thispage, 'html.parser) but this error only happens for this specific page. Does anyone know why this is happening?

The code I have so far is very simple:

from bs4 import BeautifulSoup as soup

openU = urlopen(url)
thispage = openU.read()
open.close()

pageS = soup(thispage, 'html.parser')

The error I get is:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "C:\Users\Kathy\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36\lib\site-packages\bs4\__init__.py", line 228, in __init__

Please help!

Try using

pageS = soup(thispage, 'lxml')

insted of

pageS = soup(thispage, 'html.parser')

It looks may be a problem with characters encoding using "html.parser"
