Actor Kim Soo-hyun to appear at domestic awards ceremony after 18 months

South Korean actor Kim Soo-hyun is set to make his first official appearance on a domestic stage in approximately 18 months. He is scheduled to attend 'The Fact Music Awards' (TMA) on September 19th at the Busan Asiad Main Stadium.

This event signifies a return to the public eye for the star, whose last official domestic engagement was a press conference in March of the previous year. At that time, he was addressing personal matters and has since been pursuing legal action against those spreading false information. Recently, he achieved a victory in a first-instance lawsuit against an advertiser for damages, signaling a gradual resolution of his legal entanglements.

Kim Soo-hyun has recently been re-engaging with his career through overseas brand photoshoots and an appearance on a special live broadcast for RCTI, an Indonesian private television channel celebrating its 37th anniversary. His attendance at the TMA is expected to accelerate his return to domestic activities.

Since his debut in the 2007 MBC sitcom 'Kimchi Cheese Smile,' Kim Soo-hyun has solidified his status as a top star across Asia with a string of hit dramas. These include 'Dream High,' 'Moon Embracing the Sun,' 'My Love from the Star,' and 'Queen of Tears,' all of which achieved significant success.
