Kim Soo Hyun is receiving an overwhelming wave of support online after major developments in the ongoing controversy involving the late actress Kim Sae Ron.
Following the arrest of Kim Se Ui, head of the controversial YouTube channel Garo Sero Institute, public sentiment surrounding Kim Soo Hyun appears to be shifting dramatically.
On May 27, Kim Soo Hyun’s agency Gold Medalist released an official statement claiming that allegations and evidence previously circulated against the actor had been confirmed false through investigative procedures.
According to the agency, KakaoTalk conversations attributed to Kim Soo Hyun were allegedly fabricated using conversations involving unrelated individuals, while voice recordings connected to Kim Sae Ron were reportedly generated using artificial intelligence technology.
The agency also revisited Kim Soo Hyun’s emotional press conference from last year, during which the actor stated: “I won’t ask people to trust me. I will prove it.”
The statement added: “The past year was devoted entirely to keeping that promise. Through legal procedures and thorough investigation, the truth has finally been proven.”
As the controversy began turning in his favor, fans quickly returned to Kim Soo Hyun’s social media accounts to leave supportive comments.
Notably, the actor’s Instagram had remained inactive for more than a year, with his last post uploaded on February 12, 2025.
The post — featuring Kim Soo Hyun dressed in a suit — has now become flooded with encouraging messages from fans worldwide.
Many comments praised the actor for enduring the scandal and expressed hopes for his return to acting projects.
Fans wrote messages including:
- “Thank you for enduring everything.”
- “We missed you.”
- “Now we can finally see you acting again.”
- “Your happiness begins now.”
The actor’s last Instagram post has reportedly surpassed 2.8 million likes as support continues pouring in.
Attention is now increasingly focused on the fate of Kim Soo Hyun’s highly anticipated Knock-Off series for Disney+.
The drama, which reportedly carries a production budget of approximately ₩60 billion, follows the story of an ordinary office worker who rises to become a powerful figure in the counterfeit luxury goods market.
Originally scheduled for release in 2025, the project was delayed after the controversy erupted.
Despite growing calls for Kim Soo Hyun’s comeback, Disney+ recently stated that there are currently “no additional updates” regarding the release schedule for the series.
Meanwhile, Kim Se Ui continues denying all allegations against him even after the court approved his arrest warrant.
Investigators are reportedly continuing to examine accusations involving defamation, intimidation, manipulated AI recordings, and the spread of false information connected to Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Sae Ron.
