Article: Kim Sun Ho opens up after 3 days since 'actor K' scandal
Source: Han via Naver
1. [+6,840, -594] His agency is already aware of what's going on, and seeing as how his Dominos CF got trashed, the rumors are undeniably true. Kim Sun Ho should just be grateful to the ex for waiting until his drama finished airing.
2. [+3,641, -79] Celebrities seem so foolish all the time. They must've seen countless of cases of fellow celebrities being dropped to rock bottom over the smallest of scandals, why can't they just watch and learn and live quiet lives? Even if he wasn't a celebrity, getting your girlfriend pregnant and then forcing her to have an ab*rtion would've gotten you words of harsh criticism from everyone around you no matter what. So foolish... so, so foolish.
3. [+2,042, -81] "Looking into the truth" = "getting the gears turning in our heads"? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
4. [+1,634, -118] It's fine for two people in a relationship to be together, get pregnant, and then get an ab*rtion... but for Kim Sun Ho, the way he handled the entire process was so dirty. He should've apologized, said sorry... but instead he was insistent on not using protection, then forced her to get an ab*rtion, then dumped her over the phone, and thought he could get away with it all by acting like the sweetest man in the world on TV. The woman must've been so mad having to see him all the time...
5. [+1,062, -57] His agency is probably trying to offer any cash they can so the woman can lie for them... What a headache. Their actor finally got up to the ranks where he'll make them some good money but he's now sitting in rock bottom.
6. [+608, -20] At least she waited until his drama finished airing so that it wouldn't be affected. It's essentially over for him... His image as a male lead was that of someone very innocent and naive, and to think that he was forcing someone to get an ab*rtion behind it all... and then throwing away the woman who was once pregnant with his child. That's just irresponsible.
7. [+453, -28] I wanted to stay neutral but after seeing his pizza and shopping mall CFs get taken down.. it feels real...
8. [+369, -11] Whatever the case, forcing someone to get an ab*rtion all for his own fame and greed... is quite the contrast to his current image of innocence and care.

1. [+913] If the rumors were true, they would've said so by now...
2. [+611] The agency is basically confirming it... I really didn't want to believe them to be true... 'Cha Cha Cha' was going to be my most favorite drama ㅠㅠ
3. [+352] I guess the rumors are true then
4. [+582] Don't most celebrities take legal action against false rumors? Since they're not going the legal action route, they must be thinking of a clarification instead..
5. [+246] Always with these scandals when someone's about to blow up...
6. [+147] Why can't they just outright say whether the rumors are true or not?
7. [+91] Come on, people. Don't be impatient. It's too early to make a decision yet.
8. [+55] And this is how he goes, bye 🙌
9. [+68] He's only just now gaining fame, I feel bad for him.. but I'll be so disappointed if the rumors are true.. ㅜㅜ
10. [+57] If they can't outright say it's not true, then are they looking for excuses in the mean time?

1. [+122] The agency needed to have put out the "looking into the truth" statement the very first day this scandal happened. I had no idea 'Hometown Cha Cha Cha' would be the first and last drama I would know this actor by...
2. [+311] Talking about co-stars behind their backs.. sure, I can get that, since I doubt people live their lives without saying one bad thing about a co-worker. It's normal to hate on them while talking to your partner about your day at work. But to falsely promise your girlfriend marriage in exchange for an ab*rtion? That's a mistake you can never come back from. Whether it's Kim Sun Ho who did this or someone else... that's a mistake that you need to pay the price for.
3. [+240] Am I the only one denying reality right now. I was so sure that all of this would blow over yesterday... but it seems like the rumors are more likely to be true the longer we wait... ㅜㅜ I became a fan through 'Hometown Cha Cha Cha' and stayed up all night giggling over his old video clips... sigh
4. [+177] Can't the agency just ask Kim Sun Ho himself what the truth is?
5. [+90] The agency has to play it cool... because if they threaten her with legal action, she might come back with just releasing all the Katalks, video recordings, receipts, deposits, any proof that will drop him even further to rock bottom.

Article: Kim Sun Ho's 'rumors' affect Shin Min Ah... interviews canceled
Source: The Joongang via Naver
1. [+2,952, -45] He's getting in the way of everyone~ Shin Min Ah, we support you
2. [+2,121, -21] All that was left for him was to rake in the money... and it all disappeared in 10 seconds ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ what is life...
3. [+1,847, -55] Dating a woman in secret, sleeping with her... that's all a part of his private life so it's not our concern, but to get her pregnant, lie to her with a promise of marriage so she'll get an ab*rtion, and then to disappear from her life? It doesn't matter that he's a celebrity, that's just not something you do as a human being period. He deserves to be kicked out of the industry. If he was going to dump her without ever marrying her, then don't get her pregnant. He was insistent on not using protection for his own satisfaction, he should've taken responsibility for that. How dare you lie to her that you'll marry her if she gets an ab*rtion? How dare you disappear from her? If this is all true, you're not human at all. You deserve to disappear.
4. [+1,062, -45] Obviously talks with his agency have already been ongoing since Dominos and 11th Street both took down his ads... These rumors are fact with the way the CF industry is cutting ties with him. 'Hometown Cha Cha Cha' fans must feel the pain on the back of their heads after being betrayed by him so hard from the drama.
5. [+569, -21] Kim Sun Ho owes Shin Min Ah a huge apology

Article: Viewers demand Kim Sun Ho leaves all of his variety programs... next drama 'also on fire'
Source: SBS via Naver
1. [+866, -44] Image is everything for these celebrities. His career is over. How can his agency still be "checking into the truth" all this time?
2. [+422, -41] DinDin says every episode... please don't get into scandals, let's keep this going~~~ so listen to him!
3. [+341, -20] What a shame. Even if he did marry her, he has a face that could've carried his popularity still
4. [+267, -33] I don't know how what this woman did is any different from when a man releases a private video of a woman. She basically aired out his dirty laundry by claiming that he talks behind his co-star's backs, how sensitive he is during filming, etc etc etc.
5. [+136, -15] I think people are pushing him too hard like he's some criminal... He had only dated her for 4 months when she got pregnant, what was he supposed to do? Get married right away? Whether you've been dating for 4 months or 4 years, doesn't he have a right to ask that she ab*rt the baby if the pregnancy is unwanted...?

Article: Who is 'A' who exposed 'actor K'? "A big impact if her identity is revealed"
Source: Naver
1. [+1,142, -118] Sun Ho-ya, go beg for her forgiveness!! And ex-girlfriend-nim~ accept the settlement money and have a new start in life! Let's just settle this in an amicable way since you both have such a bright future ahead of you~ Hurting others will only bring bad luck on your future generations!!
2. [+769, -52] Farewell... Kim Sun Ho needs to open his own mouth, this is not something that disappearing from will solve
3. [+598, -27] Poor '1N2D' team. It's so cold right now but they're probably working overtime to trash all of their recorded footage and re-film everything ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ the PD must feel like crying right now. They should look into getting some shaman to perform a ritaul and lift this curse.
4. [+542, -47] Seems his agency just has no idea what to do. They're being attacked by the ex but Sun Ho doesn't want to reveal who she is because of the impact on his image... They won't make another statement until after they've beat down on their calculator all they can. His CFs are already being taken down so it's effectively over for him anyway.
5. [+254, -33] Obviously the woman is a pr*stitute which is why people are claiming that her identity would impact his image negatively? What I find suspicious about her is that she seems to have experience with ripping money off of men with the way she sent him hospital documents for him to compensate her, and she decided to expose him because she was pissed he only paid her 2 million won for the ab*rtion. This is why his agency should've been quicker to say something. Now everyone just believes the pr*stitute's side of the story and his image is trashed. Should've just confessed the truth from the start before letting it get this bad.
