Actor Kim Soo-hyun has resumed activities with an advertisement shoot.

On the 14th, an official from the Philippine clothing brand Bench posted on social media, "We are reunited with Bench's family," along with a photo.

The released photo captured the scene welcoming Kim Soo-hyun, who was once again selected as the brand's advertising model. Returning after one year and four months, Kim drew attention while holding a bouquet of flowers and maintaining his unchanged smile.

Kim participated in the shooting of Bench (BENCH) advertisement videos and pictorials on this day. Previously, last month, Kim's agency Gold Medalist had announced that "Kim Soo-hyun will participate in the Bench advertisement shoot on the 14th."

Bench is a brand that previously appointed Kim Soo-hyun as its model in 2024, and they have reunited by honoring their past relationship.

Kim Soo-hyun became embroiled in controversy over allegations of dating the late Kim Sae-ron when she was a minor. Previously, Kim Se-ui (CEO) has consistently claimed through YouTube broadcasts since March last year that Kim Soo-hyun was in a romantic relationship with the late Kim Sae-ron and bore responsibility for her death.

However, investigative authorities determined that the voice recording file released by Kim Se-eun was a fabricated file generated by generative artificial intelligence (AI), and that the KakaoTalk conversation content between Kim Soo-hyun and the late Kim Sae-ron was also manipulated.

On the 23rd of last month, Kim Se-eun was arrested and prosecuted for violations including the Act on Promotion of Information and Communications Network Utilization and Information Protection (defamation by spreading false facts), the Special Act on Punishment of Stalking Crimes, the Special Act on Punishment of Sexual Violence Crimes (distribution of filmed materials using cameras, etc.), attempted coercion, and threats.

The agency stated, "Above all, we sincerely thank our fans who have supported Kim Soo-hyun for a long time and stood by him. Your belief and support became a great strength even during difficult times."
