Actor Park Hye-soo, who became a café owner, resumed SNS activity after about four years following school violence allegations.
On the 19th, Park Hye-soo released photos of herself spending time with acquaintances, saying "It's autumn now."
In the photos, Park Hye-soo is shown enjoying a relaxed time holding her pet dog, and taking pictures in playful poses with acquaintances, showing a bright recent condition.
Earlier in July, news had been reported that Park Hye-soo had become a café owner. At the time, actor Kim Jong-su posted on his SNS, "Hye-soo is running a café in Paju. She created the space herself and bakes the coffee and bread herself. Wishing it success," along with photos. The released photos show Kim Jong-su, Park Hye-soo and actor Lee Joo-young together. Park Hye-soo, wearing an apron, is smiling brightly, and the relaxed, warm atmosphere draws attention. They have a connection from working together on the film "Samjin Company English TOEIC Class."
Ahead of the first broadcast of the KBS2 drama Dear.M in 2021, Park Hye-soo was embroiled in allegations of school violence and suspended all activities. Park Hye-soo's side immediately denied the allegations as "baseless," but the controversy prolonged as those claiming to be victims collectively demanded an apology.
As a result, Dear.M's broadcast was postponed indefinitely, and it was released in Japan before its domestic airing. It later drew attention when it was belatedly aired domestically on KBS Joy in April this year, about four years later.
Park Hye-soo cautiously returned through the 2023 film "You and I." Attending the press screening in person, she said, "I have done my best to correct falsehoods during the past period," and added, "Although the investigation is still ongoing, my position remains unchanged. I will work to reveal the truth until the end," expressing a resolute stance.
Her agency also explained ahead of her return that "a criminal defamation complaint is underway, and the investigative agency, recognizing circumstances in which the accused damaged social reputation with false information, forwarded the case with a prosecution recommendation. Additional investigation is still ongoing."
With the school violence allegations not completely resolved, Park Hye-soo could not help feeling burdened about appearing in official settings. Nevertheless, she actively continued efforts to correct misunderstandings about herself by directly participating in film promotion activities. "The investigation has been ongoing from the beginning until now. I hope everything is revealed quickly," she said, appealing her grievances.
