Kim Soo Hyun, the Korean actor known for his top-tier performances, is now caught in a whirlwind of controversy.
Despite his long list of achievements, from Dream High to Queen of Tears, a recent scandal has shaken his reputation.
The issue started when former MBC reporter Kim Sei dropped a bombshell via YouTube’s Garosero Research Institute.
Allegedly, Kim Soo-hyun had a problematic relationship with the late actress Kim Sae Ron, including claims of coercion, isolation, and emotional abuse.
With strong evidence, including photos and written records from Sae Ron, the accusations have sent shockwaves through the industry.
The most tragic part?
Kim SaeRon was found dead in her home, suspected of taking her own life.
This revelation has led to a massive fallout for Kim Soohyun, with many fans turning their backs on him.
One of them is Chinese actress and singer Esther Yu, who had openly admired him.
In a recent interview, she named him as her dream co-star, laughing fondly.
However, netizens quickly noticed that she has now unfollowed his account, hinting at a change in perception.
