[theqoo] KIM SOOHYUN, IS A COMEBACK IN ACTING POSSIBLE… INDUSTRY “ROMANCE SEEMS UNLIKELY”

According to industry sources on the 15th, opinions are divided regarding Kim Soohyun’s potential return to acting. […] the likelihood of Kim Soo-hyun being cleared of suspicion has increased; consequently, some believe there will be no obstacles to his acting career. Conversely, others argue that the damage to his image is significant enough to make it difficult for him to resume activities as he did in the past.

A production company official stated, “If he is completely cleared of the allegations, I believe a return to acting is possible. If there is a role that suits him well, he will receive casting offers,” adding, “Scripts from production companies have recently been sent to Kim Soohyun’s agency.” A management industry insider commented, “Given that Kim Soohyun is an actor with proven acting skills, there will be projects that require him, and a comeback is likely feasible.” However, the insider noted, “To maintain a steady career, he will need to be prudent in his choice of projects and deliver performances even better than before to demonstrate that he is an indispensable actor.”

Another industry insider stated, “Public image is crucial for celebrities. While they usually continue their careers with the public’s goodwill, so much information has been revealed, including details the public had no desire to know, that it is doubtful whether audiences could fully accept him as a character in a production.” The source added, “It will likely be difficult to view him the same way as before; casting Kim Soohyun, particularly in romance genres, will likely prove challenging.”

1. I sure am curious about the producers sending him scripts ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

2. He must be getting a lot of scripts; a next project is bound to come up. Production companies would naturally be eager to sign him 

3. Meanwhile the guy who forced his girlfriend into abo**ion is doing just fine 

4. Is he gonna shoot something like Real?ㅋㅋ

5. Don’t come out 

6. The industry even promotes druggies so..

7. His hyung from his company will probably buy a script for him, produce the project, pay him a huge fee, and then put out press releases claiming he’s back to his peak market value, so expect a flood of mediaplay. All those stories about him being flooded with scripts could just be PR spin, too; I remember someone who had tons of articles claiming they’d received offers for 100 commercials, only to end up doing just one or two

8. So he’s going to do Real 2?

9. I bet he’ll do romance just fine and we’ll get people saying stuff like “his eye gaze is so kind. I wish he can date the female lead”…. Even my friend talks like that. I will still avoid him like pest, and won’t say much, but I hate hearing stuff like that ㅜ

10. Oh….
