Following the controversy over his relationship with the late Kim Sae Ron, Kim Soo Hyun's face was blurred in the YouTube content of the Kpop group TXT. The public's view of the highest-paid actor in South Korea has changed. 

Kim Soo Hyun was labeled a pedophile for dating Kim Sae Ron when she was still a minor. Recently, TXT's Beomgyu was a guest star on the show 'My Fave's Fave' hosted by TXT's Soobin on the Pixid YouTube channel. The show features Kpop idols talking about their favorite things. 

On that occasion, TXT's Beomgyu shared his love for Korean dramas. Set in a classroom, there are a number of standees or replicas of famous Korean artists attached above the chairs as if they were guest stars of TXT's Soobin show. 

There is a standee of IU with her eccentric style when starring in the Korean drama Hotel del Luna to Hyeri with bangs when starring in the Korean drama Reply 1988. However, the most eye-catching is Kim Soo Hyun's standee wearing a black suit from the Korean drama Queen of Tears. 

Because only Kim Soo Hyun's face standee was blurred by the editor team. A fan of the Kpop group TXT who realized this immediately shared a clip of Soobin and Beomgyu's content on his personal TikTok account @do_u_know_watermelon on Thursday April 10, 2025.

"They way they blurred that one actor pic like he didn't exist LMAO (Look how they had to blur that one actor's face like he didn't exist HAHAHA)" wrote the TikTok account owner @do_u_know_watermelon on Thursday April 10, 2025.

The upload was immediately commented on by netizens and has received more than 176 thousand likes since it was uploaded. Not only Kim Soo Hyun's standee was blurred. The posters of the Korean drama My Love from the Star and Queen of Tears that were included in TXT's Beomgyu powerpoint slide were also blurred.

Fans suspect that TXT's Soobin and Beomgyu's YouTube content was recorded before the Kim Soo Hyun controversy erupted on Monday March 10, 2025. As a result, the editing team had to re-edit to blur Kim Soo Hyun's face before releasing it. "The filming must have taken place before the KSH case " commented a netizen.

"Property staff: no more giving fake property," said a netizen. "Even the posters of My Love from the Star and Queen of Tears on Beomgyu's PPT are blurred too" said another netizen. Meanwhile, Kim Soo Hyun has again denied allegations of dating Kim Sae Ron when she was a minor. 

This time, his agency Gold Medalist asked the Truebaum Institute to conduct a forensic language analysis to prove that the chats from 2016 released by Kim Sae Ron's family were fabricated. The chats released from that year showed Kim Soo Hyun asking Kim Sae Ron intimate questions.
