Past remarks made by Actor Choi Woo Sik about Kim Soo Hyun have resurfaced in the wake of recent allegations surrounding Kim Soo Hyun’s personal life.
Recently, reports surfaced claiming that Kim Soo Hyun was involved in a relationship with the late actress Kim Sae Ron when she was a minor, which sparked a wave of controversy. In light of the public scrutiny, Choi Woo Sik's comments about Kim Soo Hyun's reputation from a past interview have garnered renewed attention.
Back in 2014, Choi Woo Sik appeared on MBC's 'Radio Star' and was asked about his relationship with Kim Soo Hyun. When the show's MC brought up an old interview where Choi had jokingly mentioned hearing "bad rumors" about Kim Soo Hyun, Choi seemed taken aback.
Choi explained and said, "Soo Hyun brother probably doesn’t even know me. We worked on the movie 'Secretly, Greatly' together, but in all my scenes, I was always hitting him from behind. I hit him really hard." However, comedian Yoon Jong Shin humorously added, "So you not only hit him but also dissed him?" Choi, appearing cautious, responded by saying he actually wanted to get closer to Kim Soo Hyun, but Kim kept his distance.
This led to more banter from the show's hosts, with some teasing Choi further. Netizens at the time reacted with curiosity, wondering about the context behind Choi's remarks and the nature of the rumored "bad rumors."
As allegations surrounding Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Sae Ron continued to surface, including claims made by Kim Sae Ron's family through the YouTube channel Garo Sero Research Institute, online users revisited Choi Woo Sik's past interview. Some commented on Choi's demeanor, speculating that his remarks may have had more weight than initially perceived.
Amidst the unfolding controversy, opinions remain divided on the veracity of the claims, with the public closely monitoring further developments.
