In March, Kim Soo Hyun was criticized for his private life controversy involving actress Kim Sae Ron. However, according to Korean media, the public's attitude towards Kim Soo Hyun is different now, and the actor's ability to return is predictable. In particular, there is a lot of interest in the release of the knock-off film project.
This has been a hot topic since the project was started by Disney. The film has a total investment of 60 billion won in production costs.
Disney has recently removed knock-off from the announcement of the lineup for the second half of 2025, and the representative of this unit said: "There is no separate update after knock-off temporarily suspended the release plan when the unit considers internally cautiously". Disney is expected to continue to maintain a cautious stance and postpone the release of knock-off until a legal verdict related to Kim Soo Hyun is available.
However, recently, "For Why Why Why Take You Here" starring Kim Soo Hyun has been decided to air in Brazil, Taiwan (China)... and Kim Soo Hyun's comeback is being pushed more in Korea. Therefore, some audiences are looking forward to the debut of Kim Soo Hyun and the knock-off film.
