Actor Kim Soo Hyun has finally addressed the ongoing dating rumors with Kim Ji Won, sending a clear message to fans.

On January 24th, Kim Soo Hyun posted a response on the popular communication platform Bubble, saying, “I hope you all watch dramas as just dramas now.” His words came after a fan suggested that the two stars should go public with their rumored relationship.

The fan had written, “Please get married to Ji Won soon and show your love publicly. Let everyone know how much you love each other and that you belong to each other. Please get married. Kim Soo Hyun, Ji Won's husband; Kim Ji Won, Soo Hyun's wife.”

Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Ji Won previously worked together in the hit tvN drama Queen of Tears, where they portrayed a married couple. The drama, which wrapped up in April of last year, became a huge success, peaking at a viewership rating of 24.9% (Nielsen Korea). Their chemistry on-screen earned them the nickname "Baek Hong couple," and they gained significant love from fans.

However, dating rumors started circulating after Kim Soo Hyun deleted some photos he had posted on his social media in July. The photos shared similar poses, outfits, and compositions to ones posted by Kim Ji Won, leading to speculation that they were secretly in a relationship. At the time, neither star commented on the rumors.

On the work front, Kim Soo Hyun is set to return to the screen with Disney+’s new series Knockoff. The series, scheduled for release in the first half of this year, follows the story of Kim Seong Jun (played by Kim Soo Hyun), an ordinary man who enters the counterfeit business during the Asian financial crisis and eventually becomes the "king of knockoffs." Kim Soo Hyun will star alongside actress Jo Bo Ah in this exciting new project.

Big news has rocked the drama world! Director Lee Byung Hun has officially stepped down from the director’s chair for the upcoming Netflix series Everything Will Come True, starring Kim Woo Bin and Suzy.

Reports from the broadcasting industry on January 27 revealed that Lee Byung Hun left the project last year during filming due to personal reasons.

The production team confirmed the news, stating, “It is true that Director Lee Byung Hun left the project due to personal reasons.” After his exit, PD Ahn Gil Ho, who directed the hit Netflix series The Glory, stepped in to lead the project.

Despite Lee Byung Hun’s departure, Everything Will Come True wrapped up all its filming by the end of October 2024.

Fans are still eagerly awaiting this romantic comedy that tells the story of Genie (played by Kim Woo Bin), who holds the power to control life and death, and Ga Young (played by Suzy), who lacks emotions.

The two characters make three wishes that could change their fate in ways they never imagined—bringing either fortune or punishment.

The buzz around the project has been huge, thanks to its writer Kim Eun Sook, the mastermind behind iconic dramas like Secret Garden, The Heirs, Goblin, Descendants of the Sun, and Mr. Sunshine.

Fans were excited about the combination of Kim Eun Sook’s storytelling and Lee Byung Hun’s directing talent. Everything Will Come True was one of the most anticipated Netflix releases for 2025.

Currently, the drama is in post-production, with a lot of technical work and CGI still to be done. The team behind the show is putting in extra effort to make sure it’s the best release of the year, with specialists from various fields working together to complete it.

Stay tuned for updates, as Everything Will Come True is set to release later this year!
