As per the GOLD MEDALIST’s statement provided to OSEN, a spokesperson stated, “Kim Soo-hyun’s brand event in Taiwan has been postponed due to safety concerns.” For the unversed, the event was originally organized as a part of the Kaohsiung Cherry Blossom Festival. The company further revealed that full refunds will be given to the people who booked the tickets. The refunds are now in process.
The hosting brand, 7/11, not only arranged the event but was also supposed to release items featuring Kim Soo-Hyun on them. However, this cancellation report might affect the brand’s business quite a lot. Insiders have been assuming that the event cancellation might lead to a penalty fee of 1.3 billion KRW (about 887,093 USD). This news came in just when a renewed controversy erupted revolving around Soo-Hyun and late Kim Sae-Ron, sparking a lot of discussions.
Amid this legal battle between Kim Soo-Hyun and Garo Sero Research Institute for violating his privacy and sharing his private pictures to the world, Soo-Hyun’s career has hit a rough spot. From brands canceling him to his projects getting shelved, it’s a dark time for him. For those who don’t know, his upcoming Disney+ drama Knock Off has been indefinitely postponed. It had a budget of several billion KRW, and despite shooting most of the series, it might never see a release date.
