Actor Kim Soo Hyun has recently come into public attention yet again after a report claimed that the police had concluded he was innocent of the accusations rallied against him about dating actress Kim Sae Ron was a minor.
Police Conclusion On Kim Sae Ron And Kim Soo Hyun’s Relationship Sparks Fury
While the public seems to be far from welcoming the actor back into public eye, Kim appears to still boast a sizable fanbase that is defending him against the accusations to date.
Recently, a user on X (formerly Twitter) made a post compiling some of the comments under Kim Soo Hyun’s social media posts, which showed fans, mostly women, congratulating him and cheering him on. The OP (original poster) expressed shock at the fact that he still enjoyed such huge support despite the serious nature of the allegations and ample evidence of him being inappropriately close to Kim Sae Ron when she was a minor.
I went to Kim Soo-hyun’s comment section and genuinely got angry to the point of tears 😭😭
The worst part is seeing women dragging and dismissing another young woman just to defend a man.⁰No empathy, no compassion… just pure misogyny disguised as fandom. pic.twitter.com/i46AKQbwxn

The fact that most of his fans are women is just embarrassing because why are you in the front defending a p*do !? https://t.co/lf14qEA9rX pic.twitter.com/1n9BlR4Ei9
