G-Dragon’s music project show, “Good Day,” faces challenges with declining viewership and recent controversy surrounding actor Kim Soo Hyun. The show’s ratings have fluctuated, and now, alleged past relationship claims involving Kim Soo Hyun and the late Kim Sae Ron have added to the show’s troubles.
Ratings and Show Format
“Good Day” is a music program where G-Dragon produces songs with various artists, aiming to capture the essence of different years. Episode two featured Kim Soo Hyun, who interacted with other celebrities born in 1988, known as the ’88ers’. This group includes Jung Hae In, Lee Soo Hyuk, Im Si Wan, and Hwang Kwang Hee. Kim Soo Hyun‘s participation, including his singing, initially helped boost the show’s ratings.
Episode 1: 4.3%
Episode 2: 3.6%
Episode 3: 3.9%
Episode 4: 3% range
These ratings, based on Nielsen Korea’s nationwide household ratings, are considered disappointing given the show’s star-studded cast and prime Sunday evening time slot.
Controversy Surrounding Kim Soo Hyun
The late Kim Sae Ron‘s family claimed she and Kim Soo Hyun had a six-year relationship from November 19, 2015, to July 7, 2021. At the alleged start of the relationship, Kim Sae Ron was 15 years old, while Kim Soo Hyun was an adult. This has raised serious concerns.
Kim Soo Hyun‘s agency, Gold Medalist, issued a statement denying the claims.
“The claims that the late Kim Sae Ron was in a relationship with Kim Soo Hyun from the age of 15, that our company mishandled her DUI case, and that our manager had close ties with YouTuber Lee Jin Ho are all false accusations. These malicious rumors cannot be tolerated, and we will take legal action.”
Impact on Future Projects
The controversy raises questions about how it might affect Kim Soo Hyun‘s upcoming Disney+ drama, “Knock-Off,” scheduled for release in 2025. The drama tells the story of an office worker who becomes a major player in the counterfeit luxury goods market. As Kim Soo Hyun continues his activities, the impact of the rumors on his career remains to be seen.
