It's like being hit while already down, surrounded on all sides. The more Kim Soo-hyun remains silent, the more suspicions accumulate, and the controversy only grows. Moreover, the damage has spread to those around him. It is now time for him to step forward and state his position.

Actor Kim Soo-hyun is facing increased fallout as he is also being urged by the family of late Sulli to clarify the truth, following the late Kim Sae-ron. A month after the claims from the family of late Kim Sae-ron began, a variety of suspicions have continued to surface, while the individual involved has maintained silence. Circumstances contrary to Kim Soo-hyun's position have been disclosed, and as the family of late Sulli is also demanding a statement, Kim Soo-hyun has found himself in an even more challenging situation.

As the late Sulli's older brother Choi has continued to target Kim Soo-hyun, he is demanding a statement from both Kim Soo-hyun and director Lee Sang-wok regarding the filming of the movie 'Real.' According to a media report on the 28th, Choi, Sulli's older brother, learned through staff and actor testimonies at the funeral that he is demanding a position regarding the bed scene between Sulli and Kim Soo-hyun in 'Real.'

He claimed that the bed scene between Sulli and Kim Soo-hyun was not originally specified in the script and that during filming, there was a body double for Sulli's nude scene, but he pressured Sulli into doing the nude scene. While it was said that the body double could not come on the day they were to shoot the bed scene and nude scene due to illness, witnesses at the funeral stated that the body double was present at the scene. He is demanding a statement from Kim Soo-hyun and director Lee Sang-wok on why they pressured Sulli into the bed and nude scenes.

Choi also previously posted on his social media, seemingly targeting Kim Soo-hyun, with comments like 'sadist,' 'sadist in Real,' and 'It's been 6 years since I lost my sister. You have been a toy for those 6 years. You will face the pain for 6 years. Don't break too quickly.'

With the older brother of the late Sulli stepping forward to demand a statement from Kim Soo-hyun, the controversy is escalating. Kim Soo-hyun's side has not issued a separate statement and is maintaining silence, so it is expected that the fallout will continue for the time being.

Particularly, on the 27th, the legal representative for the family of late Kim Sae-ron, attorney Bu Yu-seok from Law Firm Buyou, held a press conference where he disclosed letters and mobile messenger conversations supporting claims that Kim Soo-hyun had been in a relationship with Kim Sae-ron since she was a minor, causing controversy. In a handwritten letter released by the family, Kim Sae-ron wrote that Kim Soo-hyun was 'her first and last love' over a period of '5 to 6 years.' According to Kim Sae-ron's letter, the period of their relationship began when she was a minor. This contradicted Kim Soo-hyun's claim that their relationship started after she became an adult.

In addition, messages that appear to have been exchanged between Kim Soo-hyun and late Kim Sae-ron were also made public. In these messages, Kim Soo-hyun mentions to Kim Sae-ron, 'When can I hold you?' and they exchanged affectionate messages like other couples.

Kim Soo-hyun's side has remained silent on this as well, and the longer the silence continues, the greater the fallout becomes. This has directly affected those around him. The MBC variety program 'Good Day,' in which Kim Soo-hyun was appearing, halted for one week to edit his segments, while the new work 'Knock-Off' has been decided to be withheld from release. Amid the escalating controversy, Kim Soo-hyun remains silent, while those around him bear the brunt of the fallout. Ultimately, it seems that Kim Soo-hyun must realize that remaining silent is not the answer.
