Kim Seon Ho is back in a drama with "The New Tower of Hash," a romantic historical drama.

On October 19th, a drama official told JTBC Entertainment, "The New Tower of Hash" will be Kim Seon Ho's return to drama. Studio & New, which makes movies, said, "We are definitely talking about whether or not to appear."

"The New Tower of Hash" is a romantic historical drama about the fate of Joseon between the brilliant scientist Crown Prince Lee Hyang, who loved the stars during the reign of King Sejong the Great, who is known as the "Renaissance of Joseon," and the mysterious woman Haeru, who can see the future. The script is written by Yoon I-soo, who also wrote the first "The New Row of Hashes." Yoon Yi-soo is also known for being the original author of "Moonlight Drawn by Clouds," which has been acted out before.

Kim Seon Ho plays Prince Lee Hyang, who is a very smart scientist. After tvN's "100 Days My Prince," this is the second historical drama. At that time, he showed how good an actor he was and how strong his presence was. Now, everyone is interested in how well he will play the main character in the play.

Last year, soon after he finished the drama "Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha," he was in the middle of a scandal about his personal life. He just finished filming for the movie "Sad Tropical" and is about to make his big screen debut. Last July, he went back to the play "Theatre 9-Touching the Boyd" and met people in the audience.

He said, "As an actor who is getting better, I will try to become a better person." After a meeting with fans in South Korea on December 10, the plan for Kim Seon Ho's drama is made clear, making people even more excited for next year's events.

Once the casting for "The New Row of Hash" is done, they plan to get down to serious filming. The plan is still up in the air.

A past interview with Kim Soo Hyun, Sulli, and Jo Woo Jin from the movie Real is gaining attention once again—especially after Sulli’s brother asked for a response from Kim Soo Hyun’s agency, which also produced the film.

The interview originally aired on June 27, 2017, through SBS's One Night of Entertainment, around the time Real was released. The film caught a lot of attention for many reasons, including Sulli’s first nude scene on screen.

In the interview, when the reporter casually asked, “Did you sleep well last night?”, Sulli replied with a soft smile, “I slept well.” But Kim Soo Hyun immediately said, “You seem the most nervous.” His sudden comment surprised many viewers at the time—and is now being discussed again years later.

When the actors were asked to briefly introduce the film, Kim Soo Hyun said, “To put it simply, it’s like a gift set full of everything.” He added that it took him over three hours just to read the script for the first time. “The script wouldn’t let me sleep. I started thinking, ‘I’m going to crush this,’ but after filming 101 scenes, I became humble,” he shared.

Actor Jo Woo Jin chimed in with a serious face, “You could really feel that this movie was all about Kim Soo Hyun. It was of the Kim Soo Hyun, by the Kim Soo Hyun, for the Kim Soo Hyun.” His dry and sarcastic tone caught viewers off guard.

Looking surprised, Kim Soo Hyun responded with a nervous laugh, “It’s scary when you speak with such a flat tone.”

That comment is now being talked about again, with many fans saying it felt cold or uncomfortable, especially when paired with the recent accusations from Sulli’s family.

Jo Woo Jin also praised Sulli during the interview, saying, “The most memorable character to me was Song Yoo Hwa, played by Choi Jin Ri (Sulli).” Even though Sulli had less screen time than Kim Soo Hyun, Jo Woo Jin said her performance left a strong impression.

Recently, Sulli’s family released a public statement asking Kim Soo Hyun’s agency and director Lee Sa Rang to explain what really happened during the filming of Real. They claimed that the bed scene between Sulli and Kim Soo Hyun was not clearly written in the script, and questioned why Sulli was pressured into filming nude scenes when a body double was on set. They also said it was falsely claimed that Sulli was too sick to film the scene, when in fact the double was already there.

“Sulli’s funeral in 2019 was where we learned these things—from the people who worked on set,” the family said.

In response, Gold Medalist, the agency representing Kim Soo Hyun and the production company behind Real, stated, “The exposure scenes were discussed and agreed upon before casting. SM Entertainment, Sulli’s agency at the time, also knew about it.”

Sulli passed away on October 14, 2019, at the age of 25. She had faced a lot of pressure and hate throughout her career. In 2014, she was hit with a wave of malicious comments after dating rumors with Dynamic Duo's Choiza started. She later paused activities and officially left f(x) in 2015.

After her passing, a documentary by MBC’s Docuplex included her relationship with Choiza and an emotional interview with her mother.

However, the show sparked backlash and was eventually removed.

As the past comes back into focus, fans are demanding a closer look at what really happened on the set of Real.
