A resurfaced interview featuring Choi Woo Shik has stirred up fresh debates about Kim Soo Hyun’s reputation, especially amidst the ongoing controversy involving Kim Sae Ron. The old clip, taken from the variety show Radio Star, has sparked curiosity online, leading many to speculate on whether Choi Woo Shik hinted at Kim Soo Hyun’s rumoured relationship with Kim Sae Ron years ago.
In the clip, Choi Woo Shik was asked his thoughts about Kim Soo Hyun. He responded, “That hyung seemed to have bad rumours around him.” At the time, the comment didn’t gain much attention, and Choi Woo Shik even faced criticism for the statement. Interestingly, the full version of the episode never clarified if his remark was meant as a joke, leaving it open to interpretation.

Now, with Kim Soo Hyun facing allegations of a relationship with Kim Sae Ron — claims made by the Garosero Institute — this old interview has taken on new meaning for many fans. Some believe Choi Woo Shik’s words may suggest that rumours about Kim Soo Hyun were an "open secret" in the industry, known by those close to him but never publicly addressed.

However, others point out that the Radio Star episode aired back in 2014 — before Kim Soo Hyun reached his current level of fame and before the alleged relationship with Kim Sae Ron, which reportedly began in 2015. This raises doubts about whether Choi Woo Shik’s statement was connected to the current controversy or an entirely unrelated matter.
Fans are now divided. Some think Choi Woo Shik unintentionally hinted at something deeper, while others believe his comment was overanalyzed and blown out of proportion. Regardless, the resurfaced clip has reignited conversations about Kim Soo Hyun’s past and the entertainment industry’s culture of silence surrounding such rumours.
