Uneducated fools crying T^T under every dissenting comment are so entertaining to watch.
This is what a parasocial relationship looks like. When it reaches this extreme, where a person genuinely conflates their identity and fate with a celebrity's, it is a sign of deep psychological distress, loneliness, and a fractured sense of self.
These parasocials who pay hundreds of dollars to meet Kim Soo Hyun at events where he won't even remember the shape of their nostrils can only cite Money Today, it seems. Woe.
For those who educate themselves exclusively from sensationalist media headlines, thus demonstrating an astonishing…
The reports by JoongAng Daily and other media outlets stated that Gold Medalist paid its actors a total of 670 million won ($480,100) over five years. In 2024, this was about 1% of their 20+ billion won revenue.
As they mentioned, this is shockingly low compared to industry standards (EDAM, ADOR, Hook Entertainment). Gold Medalist's weak defense is that these payouts are not subject to disclosure. They say that commissions are "included in the cost of service sales, making the public figures "unreasonable" to judge. But how are these payouts confidential when other agencies publicly disclosed them?!
You dodged the core issue and instead, latched onto this loose term of "embezzlement", obsessively defined it with legal criteria, as it that disproves the entire report. This is a strawman you built, and then hilariously debunked it yourself, offering no explanation on how is a 1% payout ratio comparable to industry peers remotely fair or standard.
Your lecture on K-IFRS vs. K-GAAP for listed vs. unlisted companies is irrelevant. The core problem isn't the accounting standard. Whether they use K-IFRS or K-GAAP, the result was paying actors 1% of revenue. Do you even understand what accounting standard is and why they are used in the first place? It doesn't seem like you have a degree in accounting or the law.
"If there were crimes, there would be an investigation." What? Classic way to shut down discussion. The JoongAng Daily report is doing its job by uncovering a red flag. It's not a court issuing a verdict.
You're using the fact that something may not be proven in a court of law as a specific crime to argue that it shouldn't be criticised as highly suspicious and exploitative behavior in the court of public opinion.
How does an agency with a massive hit like Queen of Tears in 2024 along with other projects throughout the year justify paying its actors only 1% of that revenue?
You have used false technicalities to build a fortress around a simple, damning truth that requires no legal degree to understand, and that is the financial relationship between this agency, Gold Medalist, and its actors, appears to be profoundly and indefensibly exploitative.
It's clear you've taken a lot of time to research all these despite not having a degree, since you tend to disappear for days only to dump walls of texts aimed at your detractors all at once. Anyone with an actual education doesn't need to do this. That kind of obsessive behaviour needs professional help. Kim Soo Hyun isn't worth it. Take care of yourself and try to be a better human being.

Don't write an essay pretending to know the law when you don't understand the law. You're just clowning and the more you write, the more hilarious you look to the educated.
So 10 days later, I log back into this site, the ajummas who claim they have a life are still here fighting everyone with nonsensical defense, proving that his stans are completely devoid of logic and common sense.

i don't hate him. he's not worth my feelings. i logged in, saw his news, gave a comment on his page. an opinion. and his fans can't take the difference in opinion. fans like you then hypocritically whine about how others don't accept a difference in opinion while you're doing the same thing.

i'm not sending anyone to therapists. i'm recommending a therapist. there's a difference. i'm not paying for it. you pay for it. also, you seem to think that is some sort an insult only because you see it as a stigma. plenty of companies offer therapy for their workers and it's nothing to be ashamed of.

funny how a crazed fan is writing a full essay defending an idol she doesn't know and asking someone else to check reality when she should be waking up to reality herself. you guys are super funny, man.

you should re-read what i had written.
instead of writing letters to his actual "gf", he wrote private diaries that didn't mention ANY names. this "gf" could be saeron. instead of visiting this "gf" on his military leave days, he visited saeron on his very first day back to seoul. this "gf" could well be saeron.
also he was in the military for less than 24 months. in this diary he claimed that he loves this "gf" sooooo much.
and yet the moment he left the military he broke up with her???????
make it make sense. stans like you are tiring because y'all don't think critically. clinging to an actor fantasizing about his personality based on roles he took for a job isn't what anyone would call a fulfilling life. go see a therapist.
so this is my other account but pfft he's lying. does he think the public is stupid? only his fans still believe his lies.
"i wrote diary entries about my real girl!" and yet he didn't send any letters to this real girl and yet saeron is the first girl he met on his first day back from military leave. they spent the night together where she cooked him dakdoritang and he serenaded her all night.
"i was really thankful to this girl bc she was waiting for me to return from the military" and yet he left this girl to be with saeron the moment she turned 19?

All institutions accept mature students if you fit the requirements. Unless you don't? Get an actual education, ma'am.
