Yo guys, what’s the update? I haven’t read any articles because of my mega project, so give me some news about…
More intimate text messages from 2016, a creepy video about sheer lingerie from Paris during that same time period, more fallout from Real (2017) including statements from Sulli's family, another actress, and that film's original director. Also KSH's own fan group demands the actor address the controversy and his chain of lies in a public statement.
Have you been living under a rock? You really didn't hear? You're gonna need a change of underwear, some smelling…
Last time you asked this same question I provided you with a very detailed answer. This time I decided to have some fun with it. If you saved the links I shared last time (Hint: check your Past Notifications) you can easily catch up on the latest news, at your convenience.
KSH's support base is starting to show cracks as his hypocrisy and lies continue to be exposed. His fans have…
Allkpop's translation of the letter from the "Kim Soo Hyun Fan Union" is easier to read, IMO:
"As fans of Kim Soo Hyun, we do not take this current situation lightly. As the speculations and controversies surrounding Kim Soo Hyun escalate day by day, we believe that it is due time for an explanation."
"In particular, there is undeniable, concrete evidence, including KakaoTalk messages and photos, which demonstrate discrepancies with Kim Soo Hyun's previous statements. These discrepancies have only intensified the public's confusion and concern."
"We ask that Kim Soo Hyun communicate his voice through a press conference or a similar event as soon as possible, explaining each of the controversies in detail."
KSH's support base is starting to show cracks as his hypocrisy and lies continue to be exposed. His fans have issued a statement calling for a press conference.
"With the recent controversy surrounding Kim Soo-hyun growing, fans… say… responsible explanation are needed."
"Recent reports have revealed a series of circumstances related to personal relationships in the past, and public and private issues related to them have become the center of social interest."
"Public confusion and concerns are growing as parts that contradict existing positions are confirmed."
Life in Korea is very hard for women.. while men there are very sacred, what a cruel thing :(
I am absolutely horrified by what I read on the x account 'Translating Misogyny', which I discovered while following this page over the past couple of weeks.
I can't believe that everyone is inwardly depraved while presenting an outward false front. Kind-hearted Koreans must and do exist. But the mere fact that such horrific views appear to be entirely widespread and even socially accepted is troubling, to say the least.
How can KDramas be so sweet while so much regressive behavior appears to be accepted to the point of established cultural norms? How can decent humans actually co-exist in such conditions? (How do they manage to stay decent?)
Hmm. I wonder why that part was forgettable, to me? It must have been crammed into the final 20 minutes or something. I remember the old guy at her grave.
I'm not a fan of these short half-season-series arcs, even though they often provide high-quality storytelling. My Glory, Death's Game, and Weak Hero (to name three examples) are incomplete stories delivered in partial chunks of only eight episodes each. I prefer waiting until the story is complete, rather than waiting for the conclusion after watching the beginning. (I can make an exception for Alchemy of Souls because each part delivers enough episodes for it to feel satisfying, even though the wait for part 2 was arduous.)
"According to reports, the two actors chose to leave the K-drama due to disagreements about which streaming platform would air it." "The rumors of Byeon Woo Seok leaving the K-drama are false." "Wife of a 21st Century Prince will exclusively premiere on MBC."
We still want to know, which streaming platform will air this?
I'll answer your first question, about why the release of evidence in this manner.It's tactical.1. Make a statement…
If it were just KSH lying then you'd have a point, but GM's situation cannot be compared to any individual lying (for any reason, including to protect their client or hide a secret relationship.)
GM is an established company, and subject to all of the laws and regulations of the country in which it is registered.
GM made not one but many PUBLIC STATEMENTS which have weight and bearing in the eyes of the law.
Starting from Statment #3 GM acknowledged previous statements were untrue. And this trend of admissions has continued with subsequent statements.
For a company to do this is FRAUD and MISREPRESENTATION of the FACTS. It is better for a company to remain silent than to commit FRAUD in their OFFICIAL DOCUMENTS.
This explains why we usually get non-official quotes from "unnamed persons inside the agency" or why many PUBLIC STATEMENTS are confusing gobbledygook word salad meant to convey an intended meaning without actually outright saying it, because to do that would introduce LIABILITY.
Song Ga Yeon should find a new agency before it's too late! Gold Medalist is imploding due to multiple lewd scandals. It's only a matter of time before the blowback affects others (even innocent bystanders) connected to this struggling agency.
I sincerely wish SGY well and don't want to see her become collateral damage.
Jo Seung Hee should find a new agency before it's too late! Gold Medalist is imploding due to multiple indecent scandals. It's only a matter of time before the blowback affects others (even innocent bystanders) connected to this beleaguered agency.
I sincerely wish JSH well and do not want to see her becoming collateral damage.
Kim Seung Ho should find a new agency before it's too late! Gold Medalist is imploding due to multiple sleazy scandals. It's only a matter of time before the blowback affects others (even innocent bystanders) connected to this beleaguered agency.
