Controversial actor Kim Ji Soo‘s recent career update has sparked massive backlash.
In 2021, he was accused of school violence, bullying, sexual harassment, and assault. Jisoo enlisted in the military shortly after, and in 2023, he gave an update on the allegations, stating that the original accuser had since forgiven him.
Following his controversy, Ji Soo hinted at a return to acting.

Not a flex. He was cancelled in Korea, so why are we picking up their trash? I used to like him, but the allegations made against him are horrible.
