Livestream Clip Sparks Outrage as Netizens Criticize Actor’s Response
South Korean actor Kim Ji-soo is facing mounting criticism after a livestream clip showed him making a dismissive comment about fellow actor Kim Soo-hyun, who is currently entangled in a high-profile scandal. When a viewer mentioned Kim Soo-hyun during the stream, Kim Ji-soo responded with a chuckle and remarked, “Isn’t he scared?” — a comment many netizens deemed inappropriate given the situation.
The moment quickly went viral on social media, prompting online backlash. Viewers have accused Kim Ji-soo of showing a lack of empathy and making light of a sensitive topic. Calls for an explanation or apology have circulated as the video continues to spread.
