[ARTICLE] “Good to See You, #KimSoohyun!” Official Stage in 1 Year and 5 Months… Fans Cheer Him On

What would it feel like if you were unfairly accused because of fake news, and instead of the truth being revealed quickly, you were unable to work for a long period of time? Actor Kim Soohyun appeared at an official event for the first time in about 1 year and 5 months, signaling the start of his return to activities.

On August 23 local time, Kim Soohyun appeared as a special guest on the live broadcast “Mahakarya RCTI 37,” held in Jakarta, Indonesia, to celebrate RCTI’s 37th anniversary. Taking the stage, Kim Soohyun greeted the audience by saying, “I sincerely thank you for inviting me to such a meaningful occasion,” and then personally sang “Dreaming,” the OST from the drama “Dream High,” in which he appeared.

In particular, the live broadcast showed local fans expressing their happiness and emotion at Kim Soohyun’s appearance. RCTI also released a video of Kim Soohyun’s performance through its official social media, along with messages conveying the meaning of “We were finally able to sing with Kim Soohyun” and “It was the best moment.”

Photos from the event released by Kim Soohyun’s agency, Gold Medalist, also showed Kim Soohyun smiling while surrounded by flowers, gifts, and messages from fans. Above all, the reason this return to activities is drawing attention is because Kim Soohyun had effectively suspended his official activities for the past 1 year and 5 months.

Various allegations and controversies surrounding Kim Soohyun continued during that time, but recently, Seongdong Police Station in Seoul decided not to forward the cases against Kim Soohyun for violating the Child Welfare Act and making a false accusation, citing insufficient evidence. Now, attention is focused on what kind of steps Kim Soohyun will take as he returns before the public.

The reaction from overseas fans is especially worth noting. Local Indonesian fans are welcoming and supporting Kim Soohyun, who finally stood on stage again after such a long time, while reactions from the global fandom have also continued, conveying sentiments such as “Thank you for coming back” and “I’m happy to see you on stage again.”

On October 2, a fan meeting for about 20,000 people is also scheduled to be held at the SM Mall of Asia Arena in Manila, Philippines. For Kim Soohyun, it can be said that the time has now begun for him to meet his fans again and walk his own path as an actor.

And there is also an issue that our society must certainly address through this incident. When unverified allegations or edited and distorted information spreads online as if it were true, one person’s reputation, career, and even life itself can suffer serious harm.

In particular, the controversy over false and manipulated information raised in connection with the Research Institute for Garo Sero, also known as Gaseyeon, is also an issue that must be judged strictly based on the facts and legal responsibility. Everyone has freedom of expression, but spreading false information that damages another person’s character and reputation should not be tolerated in the name of freedom of expression.

If there has been an unfair victim, the truth should be determined through the law and evidence, and actions that cause harm to others through incorrect information should also carry corresponding responsibility. After the long 1 year and 5 months, Kim Soohyun has stood before his fans again. Now is the time to watch his new beginning, not through controversy but through his work, not through speculation but through facts, and not through criticism but through support and healthy criticism.

“Good to see you, Kim Soohyun.” We cheer on his journey as he begins again amid the welcome of his global fans.

[0820] FromBio: “It Is Necessary to Determine Who Was Responsible” — Answer: Kim Seui Should Be Held Responsible for This Entire Mess

In the lawsuit over damages related to the advertising contract between health food company FromBio and actor Kim Soohyun and his agency Gold Medalist, the court focused on three main issues: whether Kim Soohyun’s side was responsible for the situation, whether he could still carry out his duties as an advertising model, and whether he should return the model fee.

At the fourth hearing on August 19, FromBio argued that there were problems not only with the controversy surrounding Kim Soohyun, but also with how Kim Soohyun and his agency handled the situation afterward. FromBio said Kim Soohyun’s side was responsible for the situation eventually reaching a point where he could no longer be used as an advertising model.

FromBio: “There was also responsibility for how they responded”…

Kim Soohyun’s side: “There was no problem with our response”

FromBio argued that how Kim Soohyun and his agency explained and handled the controversy after it happened during the contract period could also be considered when deciding who was responsible under the contract. It clearly maintained that Kim Soohyun’s side was responsible for the situation in which it became difficult to use him normally as an advertising model.

In particular, FromBio stressed that an actor’s image built over the years and the public’s trust in the actor are important parts of an advertising model contract. Considering this, FromBio said it was necessary to determine who was responsible for the situation that made it difficult to use Kim Soohyun as an advertising model.

On the other hand, Kim Soohyun’s side argued that the incident that happened before the contract was signed cannot, by itself, make him responsible under the current advertising contract. They acknowledged that the actor and his agency’s actions after the controversy could be considered because they happened during the contract period. However, they maintained that there was nothing wrong with how they actually handled the situation that could be considered a breach of contract.

What if the contract could not be carried out even without fault? The issue of returning the model fee

The court also looked at what would happen if Kim Soohyun’s side was found to have no fault at all.

Even if Kim Soohyun’s side was not at fault, if the advertising contract was considered impossible to carry out, the court raised the possibility that the rules on who bears the risk when a contract becomes impossible to carry out without fault could apply. This could leave an issue over whether some or all of the model fee should be returned.

Kim Soohyun’s side rejected this, saying that this was not a case where the contract became impossible to carry out in the first place. They argued that they had already completed their duties as an advertising model, including filming the advertisement and completing the process needed for the advertisement to be released. Whether the advertisement was actually released was the advertiser’s decision.

Therefore, they argued that simply stopping the advertisement could not be considered a failure or refusal by Kim Soohyun’s side to carry out the contract.

Even if the court accepted this argument from Kim Soohyun’s side, it said there was still a need to separately consider how the parts of the contract that had already ended or could no longer be carried out should be handled legally.

The court therefore suggested that FromBio also consider, separately from its current claim that the contract was breached, whether the model fee should be settled or returned under the rules on who bears the risk when performance becomes impossible without fault.

[0814] The key reason for the change in the trial date was that Kim Seui’s side unexpectedly applied for a citizen participation trial ahead of the first trial. On August 13, Kim Seui’s lawyer submitted a written confirmation expressing the wish for a citizen participation trial to the court, along with the defense’s written opinion, and the victim’s side also submitted a related written opinion.

A citizen participation trial is a system in which ordinary citizens participate as jurors and give their judgment on whether the defendant is guilty or not guilty and their opinions on sentencing. A new trial date is expected to be set depending on whether the court allows this application. If the court reviews whether the request for a citizen participation trial is genuine and whether there are reasons to exclude it, and accepts the application, the trial will have to go through separate preparatory proceedings, including the selection of jurors, so the trial is highly likely to be delayed for a considerable period of time.

A citizen participation trial is a system in which citizens participate in a criminal trial as jurors, give a verdict on whether the defendant is guilty or not guilty, and, if a guilty verdict is given, also give their opinions on sentencing. The jurors’ verdict and opinions on sentencing are not binding on the court.

However, since citizen participation trials are, in principle, for cases under the jurisdiction of a district court panel, it is currently necessary to review whether Kim Seui’s case can be heard by a panel in order to proceed with it as a citizen participation trial. The citizen participation trial is not confirmed simply because Kim Seui applied for one.

[BREAKING] Kim Seui’s Trial on ‘Defaming #KimSoohyun’ Charges Postponed For The Second Time — Expresses Wish for a Citizen Participation Trial

The trial of Kim Seui, CEO of Gaseyeon, who was indicted on charges of defaming actor Kim Soohyun, was scheduled to take place on August 14, but the trial date was postponed.

Kim Yoorang, presiding judge of the Seoul Central District Court’s Criminal Division 14 (single-judge panel), was scheduled to hold the first hearing at 10:40 a.m. on charges including defamation, distribution of filmed materials using cameras or other devices under the Sexual Violence Punishment Act, and violation of the Stalking Punishment Act. However, the court postponed the hearing and will set a new date later.

A court official explained, “The date was changed because the defendant expressed their wish for a citizen participation trial.”

[0814] Kim Seui, in court for two consecutive days — Trial on charges of defaming #KimSoohyun begins today

The trial of Kim Seui, head of Gaseyeon, who has been indicted on charges of defaming actor Kim Soohyun, begins today.

At 10:40 a.m. today, Seoul Central District Court Criminal Division 14 Judge Kim Yoorang will hold the first trial for Kim Seui’s charges of defamation, violating the Act on Special Cases Concerning the Punishment of Sexual Crimes (distribution of filmed materials using cameras, etc.), and violating the Stalking Punishment Act.

Prosecutors determined that Kim Seui’s remarks last March, regarding the release of a drama starring Kim Soohyun, such as “It can’t even be compared to the Nth Room,” “If the (drama) is released, I’ll blow it up,” and “There is something huge,” constituted an act of threatening to distribute additional materials related to Kim Soohyun’s private life.

Prosecutors determined that his repeated posting of Kim Soohyun’s real name and face photos through YouTube broadcasts from March to April last year, as well as his continued broadcasting of content related to his private life, constituted stalking. These broadcasts were conducted a total of 23 times.

[0813] The first trial of Kim Seui, head of Garosero Research Institute, who has been brought to trial on charges of spreading false information about famous YouTuber Tzuyang (real name Park Jeong Won), will begin today.

Judge Jeong Ahyoung of the Seoul Central District Court’s Criminal Division 20 Single Judge will hold the first trial hearing in the first instance at 11:10 a.m. on August 13 for Kim Seui’s case, involving charges of violating the Act on Promotion of Information and Communications Network Utilization and Information Protection, etc. (defamation), violating the Stalking Punishment Act, and making threats.

Kim Seui is accused of using Tzuyang’s private life to create and distribute provocative content for the purpose of generating profits through fundraising, including through a sponsorship account.

He is also accused of forcing Tzuyang to make a broadcast explaining the contents of the revelations and maliciously defaming her.

The investigation into this case began after Tzuyang’s side filed a complaint with Seoul Gangnam Police Station in July 2025.

On March 31, 2026, the Seoul Central District Prosecutors’ Office’s Women and Children Crime Investigation Division 2 indicted Kim Seui without detention on charges of violating the Information and Communications Network Act, violating the Stalking Punishment Act, and making threats.

Separately, Kim Seui has also been detained and brought to trial on charges of spreading false information about actor Kim Soohyun.

Kim Seui is accused of claiming that Kim Soohyun had dated the late Kim Saeron, who was a minor at the time, for six years, and creating and distributing fake SNS conversation screenshots and audio files using AI and other methods. The related trial is scheduled to be held tomorrow, August 14.
