On March 16, multiple videos showing the removal of Kim Soo-hyun’s standees and posters began circulating across online communities and social media, quickly gaining widespread attention. The backlash against the actor has been particularly intense in international fandom spaces, where discussions about his alleged past relationship with the late Kim Sae-ron continue to spark outrage.
One viral video captured what appeared to be a hospital staff member taking down a Kim Soo-hyun standee inside a hospital. The act was accompanied by a scathing caption, “Collecting trash from the hospital,” implying a complete rejection of the actor.
Reactions on international social media platforms have been similarly harsh. A popular fan account with 430,000 followers expressed disappointment in a pointed message, “Goodbye to the actor I once loved,” signaling the loss of admiration for Kim Soo-hyun.
Meanwhile, in China, one of Kim Soo-hyun’s largest fan bases, his reputation appears to be rapidly declining. Several major fan cafes dedicated to him have been shut down, while negative discussions and criticism about him continue to flood Weibo, reflecting the growing discontent among Chinese fans.
The controversy stems from allegations that Kim Soo-hyun was in a relationship with Kim Sae-ron from 2016, when she was just 16 years old, lasting for six years. While the actor has denied these claims, asserting that their relationship only began in 2019 after she became an adult, Kim Sae-ron’s family has publicly refuted his statement, calling it false and demanding an official apology. As the situation unfolds, tensions continue to rise within both domestic and international fandoms, with growing divisions over Kim Soo-hyun’s alleged past actions.
