On Thursday, Kim Soo-hyun met with Filipino journalists and some of his fans at a press conference a day before his fan meeting.

“I want to say thank you for the love and support you’ve been giving me so consistently for such a long time,” Kim Soo-hyun said in a video posted by ABS-CBN journalist Jaehwa Bernardo.

Our Forever With You will be held at 7 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 2, at the SM Mall of Asia Arena. It marks Kim Soo-hyun’s first fan meeting since resuming his public activities following a roughly 16-month hiatus.

Kim Soo-hyun stepped away from public activities following allegations in March 2025 that he had dated the late actress Kim Sae-ron while she was a minor. He had denied the allegations, saying their relationship began after she became an adult.

In May, police said key evidence used to support the allegations had been manipulated, including KakaoTalk screenshots and an audio recording released by Kim Se-ui, head of the YouTube channel Garosero Research Institute. Police said the screenshots had been altered and the audio recording had been generated using artificial intelligence.

Last month, prosecutors upheld the South Korean police’s decision not to pursue charges against Kim Soo-hyun, effectively bringing the roughly 16-month investigation to a close. The Korea Times reported that prosecutors returned the case records to police without requesting a supplementary or reinvestigation.

The “Queen of Tears” male lead last visited Manila on June 29, 2024 for his Eyes On You Asia Tour.
