Actor Kim Soo-hyun has emerged as an icon of 'innocence,' following BIGBANG leader G-Dragon (real name Kwon Ji-yong) and actor Lee Jin-wook.

Kim Soo-hyun cleared his name from false allegations of dating the late Kim Sa-rin during her minor years and resumed activities after a year and four months. Earlier, on the 15th, he participated in a photoshoot for Philippine clothing brand BENCH, reaffirming his status as an enduring 'Hallyu star.'

In fact, when Kim Soo-hyun held a press conference regarding personal life scandals last March, he faced cold public opinion. Although he denied all allegations with tears at the time, suspicion persisted. Even after personally appearing and actively refuting claims, he could not avoid being compared to Park Yoo-chun and Jung Joon-young in a half-hearted press conference that refused questions from reporters. This comparison arose because there were shocking cases where Park Yoo-chun and Jung Joon-young had previously held press conferences, pleaded for their innocence with tears, only to be later exposed as liars. Coincidentally, both Park Yoo-chun and Jung Joon-young, who blocked questions at the time, ultimately met the fate of being labeled 'the greatest liars.'

However, unlike those two, the tears Kim Soo-hyun shed during his press conference were proven to be 'truth.' All evidence presented by Kim Se-ye, from the YouTube channel 'Garo-Sero Research Institute' (hereinafter 'GaSeYeon'), which had raised various allegations against Kim Soo-hyun, was revealed to be 'fabricated.' YouTuber Kim Se-ye held a press conference that amounted to 'national fraud,' surpassing even Park Yoo-chun and Jung Joon-young. According to police investigation results, the mobile messenger conversation between Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Sa-rin, which Kim Se-ye had publicly released during the press conference, was fabricated, and Kim Sa-rin's voice file was a 'fake' created using AI (artificial intelligence). Kim Se-ye has been indicted for damaging Kim Soo-hyun's reputation and is currently detained at Seoul Detention Center.

As a result, Kim Soo-hyun is being spotlighted for his actions that overturned the controversy and proved his 'innocence' amid untimely allegations, similar to G-Dragon and Lee Jin-wook. While it is deeply regrettable that they were wrongly accused, their ultimate proof of innocence and victory in the war against rumors offer significant lessons to us. As victims who suffered greatly due to rumors, they have posed a challenge to modern society where rash speculation and witch hunts are rampant. In fact, G-Dragon emphasized 'justice in the end' (, meaning all things will inevitably return to the right path) after proving his innocence and offered a moral lesson. Lee Jin-wook further drew attention by liking the post.

Finally regaining his smile, Kim Soo-hyun aims for a complete comeback with the release of his next project. With his name cleared, significant interest is focused on Disney+'s new original series 'Knock Off,' whose release had been indefinitely postponed. Although the release date remains uncertain, a spectacular return through this 600 billion won blockbuster 'Knock Off' is anticipated.
