Q: Which celebrity was the easiest to do makeup for?
A: Kim Soo-hyun 💕 There was practically nothing to do. His eyebrows are already so beautiful, and his skin is amazing. Even if I didn’t do anything, he was already a finished masterpiece. 😍 Seriously, there wasn’t anything to work on.

[0630] #KimSoohyun’s Long-Awaited Comeback Is Finally Here
The way people look at actor Kim Soohyun is with sympathy. That is because he was made to carry an “unfair false accusation” based on manipulated information, and in reality had to stop almost all of his activities.
Recently, the situation has changed a lot after Garosero Research Institute CEO Kim Seui was arrested, indicted, and sent to trial. One is the news of actor Kim Soohyun’s official return in July, and the other is additional legal action surrounding Garosero Research Institute CEO Kim Seui.
Looking at these two cases together, one saying naturally comes to mind. It is “사필귀정” (sapilgwijong), meaning that in the end, everything returns to what is right.
Kim Soohyun is scheduled to officially resume his activities after about one year through a commercial shoot for a Philippine fashion brand on July 14. During the past year, it is known that he spent time recharging by taking care of his health, studying acting, and watching projects, while making almost no public appearances.
Also, the damages lawsuit worth about 3.9 billion won filed by Frombio has had its hearing, which was originally scheduled for July, postponed to August. The court decided that it needed to more closely examine the reason for the alleged breach of the contractual obligation to maintain dignity, along with the related evidence, and will continue the hearing after receiving additional materials.
In other words, the legal judgment has not been completed yet. Even so, Kim Soohyun stopped almost all of his activities for nearly a year and carried a huge social burden. Now that his official schedule is starting again, it can at least be seen as a sign that the environment for him to continue his activities is slowly recovering.
Looking back at the past year, many people treated Kim Soohyun as if he were guilty based only on claims that had not been confirmed. But as time has passed, the legal process has moved forward step by step, while the people suspected of spreading false information are instead finding themselves facing legal responsibility.
Meanwhile, Kim Soohyun has endured a long break while preparing for his return. Not every trial has ended yet. But at least based on how things have unfolded so far, it can be seen as another reminder that the law and evidence matter more than a rushed trial by public opinion.
The saying “사필귀정” (sapilgwijong) is not about deciding the outcome in advance. Rather, it means that in the end, the truth should be revealed through the law and objective evidence.
Kim Soohyun’s return can be seen as the natural next step of resuming his work as an actor, separate from the legal process, while CEO Kim Seui will have the various legal responsibilities surrounding him judged through the judicial process.
Going forward, what matters is not emotions or guesses, but facts, evidence, and the court’s judgment. It seems necessary to keep watching until the court reaches its final conclusion.

Beautiful morning to legit strong fans of #Kimsoohyun 💜💚💜 not those ones who don’t know where they stand! Today they are with kimsoohyun, tomorrow they are under GOB YouTube watching and analyzing, next tomorrow they are under another YouTuber page watching and analyzing after that they go under the Atty own and start another trend 🥱 quit already.
if you are confused and don’t know who your favorite is 🤷♀️ what’s with the whole eye service thing 😏😏 Your focus should be on Kimsoohyun every other person shouldn’t get 50% of your attention and stop posting irrelevant things that will only bring more hate to the actor.
I hope today I won’t see rubbish on my TL 🙄 let’s mind our kimsoohyun business that’s all that matters!
I can’t shake this off: The contrast is hard to ignore. For one year +, Kim Sae-ron's family and their supporters were vocal in allegations and narratives that fueled intense public criticism of actor Kim Soo-hyun. Various claims were circulated online, amplified by Kimseui and some social media accounts, leading many people to form opinions before all the facts were known.
Now, with reports that the YouTuber who allegedly played a major role in spreading disputed information he claimed the family gave him, has been arrested and detained, the silence from those who were once so outspoken is raising questions. If accusations were made publicly, shouldn't there also be public accountability when evidence is challenged or when information is found to be inaccurate?
Regardless of where anyone stands, this situation is a reminder of how damaging online narratives can be. Reputations can be affected overnight, but the truth often takes much longer to emerge. Justice requires fairness, transparency, and the willingness to correct the record when necessary not just when it supports a particular side.
Public opinion should be guided by verified facts, not by viral headlines, emotional narratives, or unverified claims. Let the family be as vocal as they were when they were spreading the lies about the actor, their lawyer is suddenly Mute as well WHY? #KimsoohyuIsInnocent
#Kimsoohyun #Kimsaeron
How was your night? Are you preparing for July? 🤭
I’ll like to suggest that all #Kimsoohyun fans thread with caution ⚠️ please don’t involve other celebrities or drag them into the limelight to bring more hate towards Soohyun! It’s enough let’s focus on his return and leave his friends alone stop trying to prove anything just leave that guy alone please. And ignore those trying to make money off his name. I thought we all learnt our lesson last year! 🥴
#Westandwithkimsoohyun
"In the chaos when no one's by your side, if you have only one person who trusts you, believe them! you are not alone!"
Pseudo feminists will call #JungHaein a criminal too but idc. #KimSooHyun is proven innocent and that's what matters!
May this kinda friendship finds me someday
Kim Soo-hyun begins his comeback
Actor Kim Soo-hyun has begun preparing for a comeback about a year after completely suspending his activities due to a private-life controversy.
It has been reported that Kim Soo-hyun is scheduled to film an advertisement in July for Bench, one of the Philippines’ leading fashion brands. This will be his first official schedule since his activities were halted following the controversy, which led to contract terminations and delays in the release of projects.
Recently, Kim Se-ui, the operator of the YouTube channel Garo Sero Research Institute, which had raised allegations against Kim Soo-hyun, was referred to prosecutors under detention on charges including defamation and violations of the anti-stalking law. As a result, questions have emerged regarding the credibility of some of the allegations. It was also reported that investigators found indications of AI-generated voice manipulation and fabricated KakaoTalk conversations during the investigation.
On June 5, Kim Soo-hyun’s agency, Gold Medalist, stated:
“The police investigation found grounds for charges including violations of the Information and Communications Network Act, the Anti-Stalking Act, the Special Act on the Punishment of Sexual Violence Crimes, attempted coercion, and threats. We deeply thank those who spoke out on behalf of Kim Soo-hyun while he patiently awaited the legal process. Above all, we sincerely thank the fans who have supported and stood by him throughout this long period.”
Following the investigation results, discussions about Kim Soo-hyun’s return are reportedly gaining momentum within the entertainment industry. In particular, the fate of the approximately 60-billion-won (about $600 million) production Knock-Off has emerged as a key issue. The series’ release has already been postponed, and the eventual decision is expected to affect both the platform and the actor.
Kim Soo-hyun has built significant influence both domestically and internationally through the success of dramas such as Dream High, Moon Embracing the Sun, My Love from the Star, It’s Okay to Not Be Okay, and Queen of Tears, as well as films including The Thieves and Secretly, Greatly. However, his acting career was recently put on hold after the controversy damaged his public image.

Kim Soo-hyun continues to dominate fan-voted actor rankings as he officially prepares for his return to the spotlight.
The actor has once again secured the No.1 position in the Star Ranking Male Actor poll, extending his remarkable streak to 58 consecutive weeks at the top with 49,451 votes. At the same time, he continues to lead the TopStarNews Male Actor Rankings, amassing 514,110 votes and successfully defending his first-place position.
Despite a months-long hiatus from public activities, Kim Soo-hyun’s popularity remains stronger than ever. His consistent performance across both rankings highlights the unwavering support of his fans and his enduring influence in the industry.
Adding to this, Kim Soo-hyun has officially confirmed an advertising shoot in South Korea next month for a Philippine fashion brand, marking the resumption of his entertainment activities and the beginning of his highly anticipated comeback.
The king’s comeback era has officially begun.

[FULL TEXT] MBC Straight — The Expose of Garosero Institute.
⸻
Kim Seui, the head of the YouTube channel Garosero Institute, had an arrest warrant requested against him on charges including defaming actor Kim Soohyun in connection with the late actress Kim Saeron’s death. He strongly denied all charges, calling the arrest warrant itself a complete fraud.
“The arrest warrant request is clearly packed with outright false facts. I admit nothing. This is an intentional and hastily thrown-together arrest warrant request.”
The police concluded that Kim Seui’s conduct was extremely poor in character, noting in particular that he manipulated KakaoTalk conversations that had been exchanged with Kim Saeron, and that he publicly released a voice recording made with AI as though it were real, without any verification.
Q. “Did you properly verify the tipster from the Garosero side?”
Kim Seui: “Of course.”
Q. “How did you carry out that verification?”
Kim Seui: “That verification was done by the National Forensic Service.”
Q. “No. Did you do it yourself, by any chance?”
Kim Seui: “We, at our, at Gaseyeon, on our own, this…What is your name?”
Q. “I am Lim Myungchan.”
Kim Seui: “Yes, yes. So, MBC, then. Yes. Right now you can clearly see that SBS and MBC are…”
Q. “I am asking whether you properly verified the tip.”
Kim Seui: “I will take it as our verification having been done by the National Forensic Service.”
However, though Kim Seui claimed the verification had been done by the National Forensic Service, the entity that actually requested the verification was the police, and the National Forensic Service’s conclusion was that it could not be verified because the original was not available.
Kim Seui was confident the arrest warrant would be rejected, but the court, finding there was a risk of evidence destruction and flight, issued the warrant. He also filed for a review of the legality of his arrest, arguing the detention decision was unjust, but the court rejected that as well and maintained the detention.
Yu Hyunjae, Professor of Mass Communication at Sogang University said:
“Beyond fake news, now I see they actually manufacture things. This person has shown very clearly just how far someone who has given up all moral standards can go in terms of the scenario they will run, and the level of crime they can commit. So I believe that to the extent society allows, an extremely heavy punishment must be imposed.”
The Garosero Institute YouTube channel has 1 million subscribers and has been making money through provocative claims and videos targeting politicians, celebrities, and other public figures. In the process, countless people have had their privacy and personal dignity violated and suffered serious harm. Because of this, the Garosero Institute has been widely condemned as a social weapon.
Is there any other Korean actor who can build the hype #KimSooHyun can?
#김수현 has that uniqueness that both his fans and haters can't ignore!
Haters claim to hate him & end up hyping him more everywhere, if you hate him so much, why bother hyping him?
Accept u can't ignore him!
Police found that two employees of Garo Sero Institute (Gaseyeon) were responsible for Photoshop manipulation of the KakaoTalk messages.
