Actor Kim Soo-hyun, who initially denied dating actress Kim Sae-ron by stating that the rumors were “completely false,” has now changed his stance and admitted to the relationship. This development has brought renewed attention to a Chinese actress who has long identified herself as a devoted fan of Kim Soo-hyun.

Chinese actress Esther Yu has repeatedly expressed her admiration for Kim Soo-hyun in public over the years. She previously mentioned that she became his fan after watching “My Love from the Star,” the drama where Kim Soo-hyun played the lead role. Additionally, she named him as one of the male actors she would most like to collaborate with in the future. Demonstrating her dedication, Esther Yu once traveled to South Korea and took pictures in front of Kim Soo-hyun’s advertisement billboards, further proving her admiration by purchasing products he endorsed. These actions cemented her reputation as a passionate fan of the Korean actor.

However, amid the controversy surrounding Kim Soo-hyun, Esther Yu’s latest drama has failed to attract public interest. Many netizens reacted humorously to the situation, coining the phrase, “China’s first victim actress,” implying that her career is suffering indirectly due to Kim Soo-hyun’s scandal.

Previously, the controversy began on March 10 of this month when the YouTube channel Garo Sero Institute (hereafter Garo Sero) started releasing details about Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Sae-ron’s past relationship. Garo Sero claimed that the two had been romantically involved for six years and further fueled the dating rumors by unveiling various pieces of alleged evidence, including photos of them kissing on the cheek, handwritten letters, and text messages. These revelations caused a significant stir among fans and the public alike.

Responding to the situation, on March 14, Kim Soo-hyun’s agency released a new statement, marking a shift in his stance. Initially, he had strongly denied any romantic involvement with Kim Sae-ron and even threatened legal action against those spreading false information. However, he has now acknowledged that they were indeed in a relationship. In his statement, he clarified that the relationship lasted from the summer of 2019 to the fall of 2020, after Kim Sae-ron had become a legal adult.

Kim Soo-hyun originally planned to address the matter next week but issued his statement earlier than expected, likely due to the growing public scrutiny and media speculation. Despite his clarification, the controversy continues to gain traction, leading to increasing doubts about his credibility.
