Actor Kwon Oh Joong is finally back in the spotlight — and the reason for his long break is touching hearts everywhere.

On April 21, Kwon Oh Joong showed up at the VIP premiere of the movie The Holy Night: Demon Hunters at Lotte Cinema World Tower in Songpa-gu, Seoul. This was his first official public event in 4 years, and fans were happy to see him again.

The actor kept things simple and classy. He wore a black knit top and pants, holding a beige trench coat casually in one hand. With a warm smile and calm energy, he greeted reporters and fans like a true professional.

Even after all these years, Kwon Oh Joong’s kind image hasn’t changed — but there was something deeper in his eyes.

His short hair and simple outfit seemed to show the quiet but strong life he’s been living while focusing on his family.

In a recent appearance on Channel A’s Close Friends Documentary – Four-Person Table, Kwon Oh Joong opened up about why he left the public eye.
“In 2020, my whole family got sick,” he said. “I felt like I had to save them. So I cut off contact with everyone and stayed by their side.”

What really touched viewers was his story about his son, who has a rare illness. Kwon Oh Joong said he visited hospitals all over the country, even trying methods that weren’t completely legal — just for a chance to help his son.

His son also struggled with getting into college. After many rejections, he was finally accepted into a Christian Studies program through a special admissions route for students with disabilities. Kwon Oh Joong gave credit to his wife, saying,
“It was all thanks to her strong will.”

Now, his son has graduated and is searching for a job. But more than that, he’s found joy in music, art — and even acting. Kwon Oh Joong shared,
“He’s recently become interested in acting, so we’re taking acting classes together.”

Their father-son bond and emotional journey have brought comfort and inspiration to many fans.

Meanwhile, the movie The Holy Night: Demon Hunters, which he attended, is an occult action film featuring stars like Ma Dong Seok, Seo Hyun, and Lee Da Wit. The film follows special warriors with unique powers who fight against evil.

Fans are excited to see Kwon Oh Joong back — and even more touched by the love he’s shown for his family.

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.
