Actor Kim Soo-hyun
Actor Kim Soo-hyun will make his first official television broadcast appearance since resuming activities about a year after stepping away from the spotlight following allegations involving his relationship with the late actor Kim Sae-ron.
He will appear as a special guest on “Mahakarya RCTI 37,” a live special marking the 37th anniversary of the Indonesian broadcaster RCTI, in Jakarta, Indonesia, on Aug. 23, his agency Gold Medalist said on Monday.
He is scheduled to take the stage with local actors and singers.
Kim Soo-hyun recently resumed public activities, completing an advertising shoot for Philippine fashion brand Bench and greeting fans through the company’s social media earlier this month. He is also set to hold a fan meet and greet in the Philippines in October.
Kim Soo-hyun’s career came to a halt after allegations emerged in March last year that he had dated the late actor Kim Sae-ron while she was a minor. He denied the allegations and took legal action against Kim Sae-ron’s family and Kim Se-ui, the operator of the YouTube channel HoverLab, who had raised the allegations.
Police last month decided not to refer cases involving Kim Soo-hyun to prosecutors over reported violations of the Child Welfare Act and false accusation, citing insufficient evidence.
“We hope that more people will look at the matter based on the facts that have been objectively established,” his legal representative said at the time.
