Actor Kim Soo-hyun is expected to break his silence after about 20 days. However, there will be no question-and-answer session.

On the 30th, Kim Soo-hyun's agency, Gold Medalist, announced that it will hold a press conference on the 31st at 4:30 p.m. at the Stanford Hotel in Mapo-gu, Seoul.

The agency noted, "First of all, we apologize for the concerns caused by recent events," and explained, "We have set up this meeting to speak directly with reporters."

This seems to be in response to a statement from fans. On the 29th, fans at the Kim Soo-hyun gallery on DC Inside conveyed through a statement, "As the recent controversy surrounding actor Kim Soo-hyun escalates, we want to make it clear that we do not take this situation lightly, and we believe a careful attitude and responsible explanation are necessary."

They also requested, "Fans remember well the diligent acting and warm image that Kim Soo-hyun has shown so far, as well as the comfort and emotion he has provided to the public. Therefore, at this time, we sincerely hope he will come forward to clarify the facts and state his position clearly."

Kim Soo-hyun has maintained effective silence for about 20 days. However, just a day after the fans' statement was released, he suddenly announced the press conference. It was reported that Kim Soo-hyun and his legal representative, attorney Kim Jong-bok from LK and Partners, will attend the event.

However, it has been said that only Kim Soo-hyun's position will be announced without a separate question-and-answer session, raising concerns that it may turn into a half-hearted statement. There is public interest in whether Kim Soo-hyun will provide a clear explanation.

Meanwhile, the "Garosero Research Institute" raised suspicions on the 10th that Kim Soo-hyun had been in a relationship with the late Kim Sae-ron since she was 15, when she was a minor, for about six years. In response, Kim Soo-hyun's agency, Gold Medalist, immediately issued a statement, calling it "a clear falsehood."

However, the "Gaseyeon" continued to raise suspicions by releasing photos and messages, and Kim Sae-ron's family held a press conference on the 27th through their legal representative, revealing letters and mobile messenger conversations as evidence of the "minor relationship."
