BTS’s Jin recently received a very unexpected gift from Gian84, the talented webtoon artist, and fans can’t stop talking about it!

On April 21st, Jin took to his social media to share a photo of the unique painting he received from Gian84. Jin simply wrote, "Thank you for the gift, CEO Gian84," alongside the image of the artwork.

The painting, which features a naked man and woman embracing each other, has an eye-catching glittery texture with cubic-like details.

What really stands out is the use of purple, which many believe is a nod to BTS's signature color.

The couple depicted in the artwork seems to symbolize love and connection, with the purple hue adding an extra layer of meaning.

Many fans speculate that the gift was a gesture of appreciation from Gian84, especially considering their growing connection through the Netflix show Dae Hwanjang Gianjang. Gian84’s solo exhibition, 'Gian Do', held last year, also showcased a different color version of this painting, titled "The Last Couple."

During the exhibition, Gian84 shared that the characters in the piece were wearing "neck collars" similar to those worn by pet dogs, reflecting the idea of isolation in today's society.

In Dae Hwanjang Gianjang, Gian84 plays the owner of a guesthouse, while Jin and Ji Ye Eun are staff members.

The show, which blends chaos and fantasy in a fun and healing way, has been gaining attention. Episodes 7-9 will be available on Netflix on April 22nd at 4 PM.

Fans are loving the personal connection between Jin and Gian84, and the unique artwork only adds to the buzz around their collaboration.

Actor Kim Soo Hyun's dedicated fanbase is taking action against online hate and false rumors aimed at damaging his reputation.

On April 22nd, the Kim Soo Hyun Fan Union (comprising Daum Cafe Yukaris and DC Inside Kim Soo Hyun Gallery) released a statement announcing they are working to file criminal charges against those spreading harmful slander about the actor.

Their lawyer, Yang Tae Young from Law Firm Siwoo, revealed that they plan to take legal action as soon as this week, filing a formal complaint at the Seoul Seongbuk Police Station. According to the fan union, these online users are violating the Information and Communication Network Act by spreading malicious defamation.

While defamation cases can be pursued by third parties, unlike insults which require the victim to act, the fan union is determined to protect Kim Soo Hyun's reputation. They stated, "This is a voluntary movement to defend the actor’s rights and maintain a healthy fan culture. We won’t tolerate personal attacks disguised as freedom of speech and will take action without hesitation."

The fan union also emphasized that this effort is not just limited to South Korea. International fans have joined the movement, showing support for the cause. The union has gathered solid evidence, including harmful comments, manipulated images, and false posts made over the past few months.

In a related move, Kim Soo Hyun's agency, Gold Medalist, filed a separate report with the authorities on April 15th, condemning the continuous spread of baseless rumors and unverified claims that have been damaging to the actor’s image. They also filed a defamation lawsuit.

This all stems from claims made by the family of late actress Kim Sae Ron, starting in March. Through the Garoseero Research Institute YouTube channel, they alleged that Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Sae Ron were in a relationship from November 2015 (when Kim Sae Ron was a minor) until July 2021. They presented supposed evidence such as handwritten letters Kim Soo Hyun allegedly sent to Kim Sae Ron during his military service and a photo of Kim Soo Hyun kissing Kim Sae Ron on the cheek.

In response, Kim Soo Hyun's agency clarified on March 14th that the actor only began a relationship with Kim Sae Ron after she became an adult, from the summer of 2019 to the fall of 2020. Kim Soo Hyun also addressed the rumors directly during a press conference on March 31st, stating, "I did not date Kim Sae Ron when she was a minor."

The situation continues to unfold, with fans and the actor taking a firm stance against the damaging rumors.
