The actor Kim Soo-Hyun, who initially denied the actress of appointments Kim Sae-Don stating that the items were “completely false”, now he has changed his position and admitted to the relationship. This development has attracted a renewed attention to a Chinese actress who has been identified for some time as a devoted Kim Soo-Hyun fan.
The Chinese actress Esther Yu has repeatedly expressed her admiration for Kim Soo-Hyun in public over the years. Previously she said she became her fan after seeing “My Love from the Star”, the drama in which Kim Soo-Hyun played the main role. In addition, he called him as one of the male actors with whom he would like to collaborate more in the future. By demonstrating his dedication, Esther Yu once traveled to South Korea and took pictures in front of Kim Soo-Hyun’s advertising billboards, further demonstrating his admiration by purchasing products that approved. These actions have cemented his reputation as a fan of the Korean actor.
However, among the disputes surrounding Kim Soo-Hyun, Esther Yu’s latest drama failed to attract public interest. Many Netizen reacted humorously to the situation, coined the phrase, “the first actress of the Chinese victim”, which implies that her career is suffering indirectly due to the Kim Soo-Hyun scandal.
Previously, the controversy began on March 10 of this month, when the YouTube channel Garo Sero Institute (hereinafter Garo Sero) began to publish details on the past report by Kim Soo-Hyun and Kim Sae-Sore. Garo Sero said that the two had been romantically involved for six years and further fueled the rumors of appointments by revealing various pieces of alleged evidence, including photos of them who kissed on the cheek, hand -written letters and text messages. These revelations have aroused significant agitation between fans and the public.
By responding to the situation, on March 14, the Kim Soo-Hyun agency released a new statement, marking a change in its position. Initially, he had strongly denied any romantic involvement with Kim Sae-Sign and even threatened a legal action against those who have spread false information. However, now he recognized that they really had a relationship. In his declaration, he clarified that the report lasted from the summer of 2019 to the autumn of 2020, after Kim Sae-Sign had become a legal adult.
Kim Soo-Hyun initially had planned to face the issue next week, but released his declaration earlier than expected, probably due to the growing public control and speculations on the media. Despite its clarifications, the controversy continues to gain traction, leading to increase doubts about its credibility. While the situation takes place, all eyes are on Kim Soo-Hyun to see how he will manage the current repercussions.
