Kim Soo Hyun is facing intense scrutiny, and now Disney+ has finally spoken up about the fate of his drama Knock-Off.

On March 31, posts started circulating in online communities, claiming that Disney+ had responded to inquiries about the drama. According to these reports, Disney+ stated that Knock-Off is "not on the current release schedule."

One netizen who contacted Disney+ shared, "They never responded to my questions before, but now they finally gave an answer."

Earlier, on March 21, a Disney+ representative had already confirmed that Knock-Off’s release was put "on hold after careful review." The drama was originally set to premiere in April after Hyper Knife, but its future is now unclear.

With Knock-Off reportedly having a massive production budget of 60 billion KRW (approximately $45 million USD), the stakes are high. If the drama is fully canceled instead of just delayed, industry insiders say Kim Soo Hyun could face a penalty fee ranging from 18 billion KRW ($13.5 million USD) to a staggering 180 billion KRW ($135 million USD).

This follows industry norms where actors may have to compensate for projects canceled due to their personal controversies.

Meanwhile, Kim Soo Hyun has strongly denied all allegations against him. At a press conference on March 31, he addressed the rumors claiming he had dated the late Kim Sae Ron when she was a minor and that he pressured her to repay debts.

During the emotional press conference, Kim Soo Hyun stated, "I did not date the deceased when she was a minor. And the claim that my agency pressured her to repay debts after I ignored her, leading to her tragic decision, is also not true."

As the controversy continues, fans are watching closely to see what will happen next with Knock-Off and whether Kim Soo Hyun will face financial consequences.

Former AOA member Kwon Min Ah—who opened up in the past about being bullied—has once again shared a deep and emotional message on social media, leaving fans feeling concerned and sending love.

On April 23, Min Ah took to her Instagram to write:
“I don’t know if I’ve become completely twisted, or if I’m just scared. Maybe I’m afraid the same thing will happen again. Everything feels scary. And I want to say something sharp to myself too—get it together.”

Along with the message, she posted a selfie where she wore a red knit top, had her hair half-up, and showed a soft pout with a calm expression. Though her outfit and style looked casual, the mood of her words felt heavy.

Fans aren’t sure if Min Ah was directing the message toward someone else or simply speaking to herself. The final line, “get it together,” sounds like a tough love reminder to herself—but also makes many wonder what she’s been going through recently.

People quickly filled the comment section with supportive messages, telling her to stay strong and reminding her she’s not alone.

Min Ah debuted with AOA in 2012 and left the group in 2019. In 2020, she made headlines when she revealed that she had been bullied during her time in the group. The confession caused a huge reaction in the K-pop world, leading to conversations about idols’ mental health and group dynamics.

Recently, she surprised fans when it was revealed she began working as a manager at a dermatology clinic, showing a new side of her life outside of the entertainment spotlight.

Fans continue to cheer her on, hoping she finds peace and happiness in whatever path she chooses next.
