On the 8th, Kim Soohyun's agency Gold Medalist confirmed his return to Sports Kyunghyang, saying:
"Kim Soohyun is scheduled to film a commercial in the Philippines on July 14."
This commercial shoot marks his first step toward returning to the entertainment industry. Previously, Kim Soohyun had suspended his activities after Youtuber Kim Se-ui raised allegations surrounding his past relationship with the late actress Kim Saeron. As a result, filming for his upcoming Disney+ series 'Knock Off' was halted and its release was indefinitely postponed. In addition, he is currently facing lawsuits claiming damages totaling around 10 billion KRW from several advertisers, including FromBIO, Cuckoo Electronics, Trendmaker, Classys, Eider, and Mido.
However, the situation reversed when Kim Se-ui was reportedly referred to prosecutors under detention on May 26 on charges including the distribution of false information. On the 5th, Kim Soohyun's side stated, "The police investigation found grounds for charges including defamation by distributing false information under the Information and Communications Network Act, vgiolations of the Anti-Stalking Act, violations of the Special Act on the Punishment of Sexual Crimes (distribution of recordings using cameras), attempted extortion, and intimidation," and added:
"Considering the seriousness of the matter, the police have referred Kim Se-ui to the prosecution under detention"
They continued, "We sincerely thank those who spoke out on Kim Soohyun's behalf while he waited for the legal process to unfold despite not being a direct party to the case. We also deeply thank the investigative authorities who silently fulfilled their duties, conducted the investigation based solely on evidence and facts, and uncovered the truth, as well as to the judicial authorities for making a fair and strict judgment regarding the suspect's detention."
Attention is now focused on how the path for Kim Soohyun's future activities and career will unfold.
