I hate this. They've shot 95% and now they're asking him to leave? This is ridiculous. I'm not saying he did right. But it was like 10 years ago? Why punish him now? People change. And we also don't know the entire story.

Victims aren't waiting for their torturer to be popular. Ever spared a thought for victims who have to live with the trauma for years and one day suddenly see that face of your nightmares appearing on screen as a male lead hero?

Do we really want criminals as our male leads???
What's terrorizing about #kimjisoo is if he did all that as a teen, god knows what he's doing as an adult. And yes people can change but a sadist wont change without psychological help #ActorJiSoo

To all Korean entertainment agencies before you recruit somebody, Make sure to do a background check first, & if there’s anything needs “fixing”, please handle it fairly, smoothly and sincerely beforehand, so that no effort will go in vain & no fan will be devastated.

He's basically a criminal that went lucky because he was a minor and his victims didn't have the guts to report him until years passed. I don't know how the world works but I guess they're right when they say that karma is real.
