Actor Jung Haein welcomed his same-age peer Kim Soo-hyun's return.
On the 14th, the Philippine clothing brand CEO's social media posted a photo taken with Kim Soo-hyun along with the message "we are together again."
Earlier that day, Kim Soo-hyun resumed activities after 1 year and 4 months through a clothing brand commercial shoot. After finishing the shoot, he was pictured taking photos with brand officials.
Jung Haein is also active as an advertising model for the brand. When Kim Soo-hyun returned as an advertising model, Jung Haein directly liked the post, appearing to welcome his resumption of activities.
Jung Haein's loyal actions are not the first. Jung Haein was appearing together with Kim Soo-hyun in MBC's "Good Boy" as part of the 88s when Kim Soo-hyun's private life controversy erupted. When the controversy broke out, some fans argued that Jung Haein "should unfollow Kim Soo-hyun," but Jung Haein did not show any particular reaction.
Jung Haein, who has shown steadfast loyalty to Kim Soo-hyun, appears to have expressed his feelings first by liking the news of his return.
Meanwhile, Kim Soo-hyun halted activities after being embroiled last March in allegations that he had dated the late actress Kim Sae-ron since she was a minor. Kim Soo-hyun acknowledged dating Kim Sae-ron but drew the line, saying he did not date her when she was a minor.
In this regard, while the bereaved family of Kim Sae-ron and Kim Soo-hyun's positions sharply diverged, the agency recently stated, "The deceased's KakaoTalk conversations were found to have been forged and altered to appear as conversations with Kim Soo-hyun, who is unrelated, and the deceased's voice was also confirmed to be manipulated material generated using AI technology."
The agency also announced Kim Soo-hyun's return, saying, "We are deeply grateful to everyone who believed in and waited for Kim Soo-hyun."
