Kim Soo-hyun’s Fans Show Support: “He Did Nothing Wrong – We’re Waiting for His Next Project”

On May 7, a press conference was held in Gangnam, Seoul, by the family of the late Kim Sae-ron, organized by Kim Se-ui, the head of the YouTube channel Garo Sero Institute, which represents the family’s communication. The event was also attended by Bu Ji-seok, an attorney from Law Firm Buyou representing the bereaved family.

The location of the conference had been shared via Garosero’s YouTube community page, making it accessible not only to the media but also to the general public. Promoted under the title “Kim Soo-hyun Felony Allegation Press Conference,” Garosero warned, “As you’ll see, this is an extremely serious matter.”

As news of the press conference spread, Kim Soo-hyun’s fans quickly reacted. Many voiced concern over media outlets using the term “felony” and demanded corrections.

The support extended beyond online comments. Protest trucks, organized by fans, were stationed right outside the building hosting the press conference. These trucks displayed supportive messages such as:

• “The evidence presented by Garosero and the family was fabricated from the start. Don’t ignore the truth—watch until the end.”
• “Reveal the truth and prove Kim Soo-hyun’s innocence.”
• “Our actor did nothing wrong. You can return proudly.”
• “We’re waiting for your next project.”
• “Don’t be swayed by lies and manipulation—look at the truth.”

These fan-organized protest trucks, notably, were not limited to South Korea. Some were confirmed to be arranged by Kim Soo-hyun’s fanbase in China, drawing significant attention.

Following the scandal with Kim Sae-ron, Kim Soo-hyun has completely halted all activities, including upcoming projects. His future in the entertainment industry remains uncertain. With legal battles ongoing and conflicting statements between both sides, he currently has no platform to speak. In his place, fans are stepping up to publicly declare their belief in his innocence.

As Garosero continues to release allegations, the public wonders how far Kim Soo-hyun’s fans will go in their unwavering support. At the latest press conference, the bereaved family alleged that Kim Soo-hyun had been in a relationship with Kim Sae-ron since her second year of middle school and have filed a legal complaint accusing him of violating the Child Welfare Act. Garosero’s Kim Se-ui further stated that even more explosive revelations may follow after the upcoming presidential election.
