"Please watch the drama as drama now," Kim Soo Hyun wrote, adding "LOL" to emphasize his lighthearted but clear stance that the speculation was becoming too much. This reply came after a fan urged him to marry Kim Ji Won and openly display their relationship.


Speculation Among Fans

The actor's response sparked various reactions among fans. Some believe Kim Soo Hyun felt the need to speak out because of his upcoming fanmeet, which was nearing its end. Others speculated that he and Kim Ji Won may have secretly broken up.


Another theory is that Kim Soo Hyun's statement was linked to his new project, Knock-Off (Korean: 넉오프), scheduled for release on Disney+ in 2025. Fans wondered if he was trying to avoid any negative impact from the rumors on his drama promotion. The black comedy series is directed by Park Hyun-seok and written by Han Jung-hoon. It explores the world of counterfeit luxury goods, with Kim Soo Hyun starring alongside Jo Bo Ah.


Background of the Rumors

The dating rumors began after Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Ji Won’s undeniable chemistry in Queen of Tears, where they played a married couple facing marital challenges. Fans, captivated by their on-screen bond, started connecting personal moments, such as similar outfit selfies and sharing a bodyguard.

Kim Soo Hyun's Focus on New Projects

In his recent message, Kim Soo Hyun reiterated that the connection between him and Kim Ji Won was purely professional, and that fans should focus on their performances in the drama, rather than speculative gossip. His attention is now directed toward his new project, Knock-Off, where he will star alongside Jo Bo Ah. Set to air in 2025, the series is a dark comedy about the world of fake luxury goods and the characters involved in its shady business.


Fan Reactions

Despite Kim Soo Hyun’s clear statement, fans remain divided on whether this was simply a tactic to maintain privacy or whether there truly is no romantic relationship between him and Kim Ji Won. Regardless, one thing is certain: Kim Soo Hyun wants the audience to focus on his work, not the rumors.


Meanwhile, fans eagerly anticipate his performance in Knock-Off, which promises to showcase a new side of the talented actor. With its fresh plot and thought-provoking themes, the series is expected to become one of the major highlights of 2025.
