Disney+'s highly anticipated 'Knockoff' release date unclear, sponsors are nervous
One sponsor's comment -
"Park Ki-pyo, CEO of Anjeon Zone Korea, stated, “As a company that values youthful sensibility and innovative brand value, Anjeon Zone has cooperated in the production of Knock-Off. However, it is regrettable that the project has been disrupted due to an unexpected scandal,” and “We will wait for Disney’s announcement to decide on our official position.”"
"According to the bereaved family, Kim Sae-ron actually kept a diary consistently, and the cover was also pink, matching the content of the article written by Person A."
Waking up to read that this mf'er sent another legal notice, this time with respect to potential damage he may have gotten from KSR's photo drop during QOT airing? Bruh, all you had to do was have your manager or shitty trash agency contact KSR after the first notice. That was all. What a POS.
Scrolling on X, a post stated that there is a diary detaling their 6 year relationship. Was this mentioned during the presser by her family's attorney? If there is one, he is cooked.
He needs to take his botox-filled face, appear before KSR's family, apologize, and then crawl under a rock, never to return to the entertainment industry again! Bye, loser!
Part of the statement from Good Day production team that was just released -
"Good Day started with good intentions. We believe that, as long as the controversy surrounding the cast member continues, the meaning of the show, its cast, as well as the love and support of our viewers will continue to be tarnished. "
Imo, this is not a good sign for things to come for KSH. If this production team feels this way, and stated it pubicly, then he might not get future acting work or other variety shows if others feel the same way.
Is the man is this picture Kim Soo Hyun? Some are speculating it's him because of his ears? Are his ears unique or something?
The picures is uploaded on a fan/sansaeng account on Instagram. The date of the upload is June 23, 2017. KSR would still be 16 in that picture as her birthday is July 31. Oh, they are in winter clothes, so the photo would have been taken at an earlier time.
I think this in regards to the letter KSH sent to KSR when he was in the military?
"But will the public believe what was said? Just because Kim Soo Hyun and/or the agency does not admit to it, does it make the letter any less romantic in nature? Do you think it’s right to keep pushing the narrative that the legal team came up with? Even after seeing the letter?"
"At no point did anyone from GOLD MEDALIST reach out to Sae Ron and tell her not to be surprised. No one told…
“After she was ignored endlessly, Sae Ron posted the photo [of her and Kim Soo Hyun] to spark some sort of a response. Yet, YouTuber Lee Jin Ho mocked her by posting a video with a thumbnail reading, ‘The Real Reason Actress Kim Sae Ron Has Gone Wild.’ In the video, Lee Jin Ho asked ‘What’s going on with her? Why is she causing so much controversy?’
What he did is comparable to someone breaking and entering a house, making a mess, and then asking, ‘Why is this house so messy?’ Only a mentally disturbed person would do such a thing."
"During Sae Ron’s wake, a lot of people from the Korean movie and drama industry attended, including assistant…
"At no point did anyone from GOLD MEDALIST reach out to Sae Ron and tell her not to be surprised. No one told her that the legal notice was part of a legal process that the agency was following.
When Sae Ron received the notice, she tried to contact each and every one of the agency representatives. No one responded to her. Sae Ron continued to reach out to verify whether this was Kim Soo Hyun’s decision or the agency’s.”
"During Sae Ron’s wake, a lot of people from the Korean movie and drama industry attended, including assistant directors from her past projects, bodyguards from her stage appearances, and countless staff members who worked tirelessly behind-the-scenes through various opportunities.
In contrast, no one from GOLD MEDALIST attended, despite Sae Ron being one of the founding members and the first actress to be signed under the agency.
I’d gladly connect you to the people from the industry who attended the wake. Would you like to interview them?”
You don't seem to be up to date regarding the debt. it was forgiven last year.They needed to follow a proper process…
That is was forgiven was not the problem - This was/is -

Disney has sunk too much cash into Knock Off to pull the plug now. They’ll pretend everything’s fine and dandy, maybe just dial back on the social media promotion to dodge any online hate. His overzealous fans will still flock to the premiere to cheer on their beloved oppa. After, he might take a year or two off due to the ongoing scandal, but for a wealthy man like him, that’s basically a nice getaway after many projects filmed. After the break, he’ll be right back making dramas and variety shows.
When it comes to big money in Hollyweird and the entertainment world, they couldn’t care less about the abuse of women, kids, or even men—just look at Brendan Fraser, who got blacklisted after speaking out about his assault. The industry protects its precious investments, no matter what.
Also, look at Woody Allen: he groomed his own daughter and married his adopted one, yet kept churning out films. Elvis hooked up with Priscilla when she was 14 and wed her at 17, and people still worship him. Jerry Seinfeld dated his wife when she was 17 and he was pushing 40, even swinging by her high school to pick her up after school. I could go on and on with examples. How sad is that?
It’s messed up how the powerful skate by, no matter how many lines they cross.
If her family can't take this scandal to criminal court, then I hope they can pursue it in civil court. He, his agency, and that trash YT reporter defamed her name by lying about her. They have caused even more damage to her reputation after her death. Even before that, the agency lied about her when she dropped the pic of them when QOT was airing. They lied and she got cyber-bullied because of those lies. They just lied now about the relationship. All has done damage to her name and memory!
Take them for their money! Make that agency go broke!!!
Just saw Kim Soo Hyun’s semi-naked pic released by Garo Sero, and the reactions are insane. Fans aren’t just…
Personally, I don't see what the photo drops are gonna do anymore. Unless they have a pic of him abusing her, it just, sadly, makes the relationship look totally normal to all his stupid, overzealous fans. They want what she had. They fantasize themselves in her place, in that apartment, with a caring boyfie doing the dishes.
The YT channel claims they have access to her diary. What they need to do is show the page where she wrote the dates that they started dating, That, IMO, would be more damning than anything.
I wake up again and this MF'er is now on my X timeline, half -naked, washing dishes in her apt. Yuck. 🤮
The family's new statement stated they don't want any money from his lyin's ass or his sleazy agency. They just want the truth in order to clear their daughter's name and let her rest in peace with her name intact and not sullied by this man or his agency.
Dude, just apologize and then go retire. You are cooked. Have you no decent bone in your body at all?😠
Another brand drops his asshttps://www.koreaboo.com/news/popular-brand-publicly-announces-cutting-ties-kim-soo-hyun/
Yep, and they specifically mention the termination came after his agency's lengthy statement from yesterday.
From Dinto Cosmetics -
"After reviewing the statement issued by his agency yesterday, we have determined that there are substantial grounds rendering the fulfillment of the advertising contract unfeasible. Accordingly, we are officially proceeding with the termination process through our legal representatives."
Honestly? I think he is cooked when it comes to new BA. I don't think a brand will touch him now.

Well, if they have evidence of this, then he and his agency are truly done. Let's wait and see.
