Fans Rally to Protect G-Dragon as His Name Gets Dragged Into Kim Soo Hyun’s Ongoing Controversy Over Alleged Past Actions on G-Dragon’s “Good Day” Variety Show
G-Dragon found himself unexpectedly pulled into a controversy surrounding actor Kim Soo Hyun, prompting a wave of online defense from his fans and other netizens. The situation arose after a social media post wrongly suggested a close friendship between G-Dragon and Kim Soo Hyun, following Kim Soo Hyun’s involvement in a sensitive matter.
The Source of the Misunderstanding
The confusion stemmed from the television show “Good Day,” where Kim Soo Hyun appeared as a guest alongside other individuals born in 1988. The show’s popularity led to a tweet that criticized G-Dragon for supposedly being “close friends” with Kim Soo Hyun. The tweet implied a negative association based on Kim Soo Hyun’s current situation.
Netizens Set the Record Straight
Quickly, netizens corrected the misinformation. They clarified that G-Dragon and Kim Soo Hyun had only met on the “Good Day” program and were introduced by comedian Jo Se Ho. Many users emphasized that the two were not close friends and had only met recently.
Not a GD stan but didn't they just meet on Good Day through Jo Se-ho’s introduction two months ago? It's clearly stated in the show. Why do you hate this man so bad that instead of focusing on the criminal in sight you're looking for ways to hate GD https://t.co/L9ZhwUG0Rc
These comments highlighted the fact that the relationship was a recent and casual acquaintance, not a long-standing friendship.
Focus on the Real Issue
Many netizens expressed frustration that the focus was being diverted from the actual issue at hand. They condemned the attempt to use a tragic situation to fuel fan wars or spread false narratives.
Netizens stressed that the priority should be addressing the serious allegations against Kim Soo Hyun, rather than targeting G-Dragon based on a brief and recent meeting.
