Good for him. He has kept his humility and integrity. His dad is a deadbeat dad. You don’t abandon your own kids no matter what. There is no excuse for that. All the while still singing and working but making his own son live in hunger. He is not only an amazingly talented actor, he’s kind and handsome too. His drama It’s Okay to Not Be Okay was my all time favorite Korean drama - just masterful. I wish him and his mother all the best. I think everybody has someone in their family who has questionable integrity, morals or conduct. We have a choice to not associate ourselves with those kinds of people whether they are relatives or not.
I wouldn't call his life tragic. He has a bad father, and a struggling single mother, that's a very large club. He has made something for himself and his mother, it's not tragic but commendable.
Yep, such a click bait title… If only all single mom kids grew up looking like models to pursue such a career 😂 Not saying he hasn’t worked or anything but it sure helps! Funny thing I just finished watching “the producers” yesterday & today this was on my recommendations
@@yourmom4942 True now every one of those kids may not be a model or actor but many of them know the value of life and make something out of themselves.
I agree, its not tragic, but something that happens to millions on the planet including myself, but not everyone becomes successfull. He made the best out of it and its commendable.
I don't know how he prepared to become an actor, but he is one of the best I have ever watched!!! I hope his mom is doing well and I hope to see him in many drama/movies!
He’s become one of my favorite Korean actor. I first saw him in “My love from the star” and then his cameo appearance towards the end of “Miss Granny”. He was so gorgeous in that cameo.❤❤
I would love to LIKE your comment but I like the number 333, so I want it to leave it at that. Instead I'll let you know that yeah, I agreed to your comment. He is one of the best and seems really down to earth. Hope to see him more on dramas and movies. His mom is amazing and so there he is, we should thank his mom for raising him as a good person and humble ❤️
I hope his father and sister to leave him alone and won't give him many problems..if they want success..then they should try only by themselves..He deserves all the best because he has shown to everyone that he is an amazing actor and as a personality he is so humble,kind ,polite..
@@sm00kyrain_3 yes i watched it while the story of it's okay not to be ok was good kim soo hyun acting skills made me nearly not to watch it but still as the story was good i watched it completely without skipping
@@abhilashmehera3813 Yes he is a very amazing actor and one of the highest paid in Korea, I'm afraid your in the minority with what you think about his acting abilities.
What a lovely soul. His father is despicable for abandoning his own child and wife. I am so glad that he surpassed his father in success because he deserves some happiness after a hard young life. He’s a great actor. My favourite show he was in are plenty, but my first one was Moon Embracing the Sun. The children in the drama were also really good and I am so happy to see them all grown and continues to act in their own shows.
His iconic og drama ‘ my love from the star’ was my 1st ever kdrama and what got me into the kdrama culture. He is one of the most in demand and wealthiest actor in SK, he deserves everything.
He deserves everything and his story is extremely inspiring.From struggling to even buy bread to being the richest and one of the most demanded actors in South Korea,he has truly come a long way! Rooting for him to be even more successful in the years yet to come ❤
@@KimSooHyun. I am from the States born abroad and I work abroad! No Thanks needed. I was raise to respect those that thru hardships overcome and still keep their soul and heart in a good place👍🏼
His father is a dirtbag. Period. Trying to re-write narrative, present himself as a selfless, hopeful parent. "Misunderstanding" is the oldest excuse. SH is the genuine thing beyond his many performing talents - a good man, diligent, humble, warm and honest. I wish him and his mother every happiness in this world, including his right to privacy. [It occurred to me that he may be too dignified to slap his father and sister with a gag order to prevent them from mentioning him in ANY way, but his agency doesn't. As a minimum they can claim damage of their investment's ability to work in peace and his endorsement marketability. ]
Ι don't know how true it is, but I read one article that Kim Soo Hyun helps support Dad, his mistress turned wife & daughter. If true, all I can say is he has a much bigger heart than I have. If my Dad abandoned me, he'd not be in my life. You can go on divorce your wife and still have regular contact with your children. So I agree, he's a real dirtbag! and both him and his daughter have tried using KSH for their professional benefit.
@AN-Nuke M "Available" is an ambiguous assumption with countless meanings and interpretations. After betrayal and dereliction of paternal duty (child support, etc) it's dandy to let his son know that he (the father) is available. What is clear is that his father wasn't 'available' through his and his poor mother's UNDISPUTABLE struggles at his most vulnerable years. In SoKo's tainted social norms of open bias against fatherless/motherless families and even exposure of a star's past along those lines could have possibly hurt his career. Only after one is well established does it become a badge of honor in overcoming adversity. What I do suspect is that as a gracious private person he is not blaming his half-sister for her existence, i.e. she didn't ask to be conceived, and may on occasion send something their way. One positive aspect of Hallyou wave is that Western nonchalance toward single parenthood, etc is adjusting archaic biases.
@AN-Nuke M How would know any better, your reply seems a bit bias. Regardless of who his father was, he obviously was not around when he left his wife and child alone, nor did he provide any support when it mattered. Just because his father was in the entertainment business, does not mean anything. A foot in the door, does make someone a success. If KSH was not a good actor, he would not have made it as far as he has.
But according to reports back then... his father reach out to him in 2012 and Soohyun did choose to mend his relationship w/ his dad (not his 2nd family just his dad). This is because no matter what he is still his father. KeyEast confirmed that father & son were trying to mend things so atleast we know that is true. Then around 2016 his dad did an interview and said that since he no longer have much work as musician, Soohyun support him and gave him monthly support. Although this just got him more hate from Knetz back then. 😅
@@Surftouka This came from his dad interview w/ KBS News back in November 2016. I remember it clearly as it's the same year his half sister news breakout. Just the sister news was early 2016 while his dad interview was end of the year. In that interview his dad rebuke reports they aren't talking & said they already mended their relationship in 2012 and that Soohyun is even the one giving them monthly support since he no longer have much gigs as musician. Ofcourse all these just came from his dad but he did provide photos of him & Soohyun together back them is what seem like a vacation. So many Soohyun did forgive him. 🤷🏻♀️
A amazing actor who has over come life’s hurdles with humility,honor, and success. The fact that he allowed nothing deter him from his goal of success and is able to maintain his humbleness and his humanity is awe inspiring. Too often actors become egotistical and arrogant. Through the years I watched him become a phenomenal actor. Thank you for maintaining in light of the hardships you’ve encountered!!! I know his Mum is so very proud of him. Thank you for producing such a awesome son!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I really liked him in " It's okay not to be okay" and then " My Love from Another Star" ..... He is indeed genuine and humble 🥰 Can't wait to see him in " Hotel Blue Moon"
I Absolutely Love This young man, He’s a great actor. I’m an African American senior from G Georgia in America 🇺🇸, thanks to Netflix’s for the movie Queen of Tears, because I have fallen in love with Korean movies, especially those starring Kim Soo-Hyun, and my heart goes out to him because he deserves to have a great life with The Only One Who’s Always Been and will forever Be with Him, His Mother. I Pray that He doesn’t allow himself to be used by those seeking His fame and fortune . God Bless You And Your Mother Kim So-Hyun. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️🙏🏽🇺🇸
His father can't call himself Kim Soo Hyun's father because he was in no way a father figure to Soo Hyun in any part of his life. It's just sickening that he would use his own son (only biologically, not in the father figure sense *I'm only emphasizing my point*) for publicity. To say that he hopes his song inspires parents around the world is beyond me. You can't call yourself a parent if you were never around for your child and you didn't try to do anything for them. You can't call yourself a parent, when through divorce (co-parenting), you didn't make the time to help his mom raise him, you flat out abandoned him and his mother. In no way, shape or form can he call himself a parent or father figure to Kim Soo Hyun. He's too pure to endure all this. Nice people really are taken advantage of and that's a sad fact. I rest my case.
@@Jrsaiden0420 moon embrace the sun is my favorite historical drama... I don't think anything can top that drama... Especially all of the cast were a great actor and actress to begin with...
I’ve never seen Dream High or the other movie listed her but have seen Love from the Stars and loved it. Sadly, I couldn’t get into It’s Okay not to be Ok. Maybe I need to try again.
I think he is the kindest, and most compassionate and caring actor. A very genuine person. There are quite a few video sharings of him rooting for other actors, being happy for others' success and buying things to show his care for his fellow colleagues. He has also done many charities to help those in need. Although he has suffered quite a lot in life, he has grown to be a respectable person in terms of his good character. His mum must surely be really proud of him. He is a good role model for many. He has made his life as meaningful as he can. ❤
He Is not only a very beautiful and handsome young man but very hard working and successful through his own strength of character....well done, I watch everything that he plays a role in
he's beautiful. his smile brightens everything. everyone has a past and trauma that they had to overcome. it's not tragic, it's life. no one can escape life and what it throws at you. it's how you handle the situation and how you rise from it. i'm sorry that he had a horrible dad as i have a horrible mom. some of us aren't lucky enough to be born with amazing parents. but, having 1 out of the 2 isn't bad as i had my dad. 1 parent's amazing love can change a child's life. my dad's love did that for me. i hope that he has shown his dad that he could not be broken, instead, he rose above the pain and made a beautiful life. fighting, kim soo hyun!!! you are loved even in southern california!!! 🥰
I fell in love with Kim Soo Hyun when i watched it’s ok not to be ok. I became an avid fan since then. He is not only handsome but he got the most sweet face among everybody, looks so gentle and kind. ❤❤❤
Something’s you could never forget but he grew up very grounded. The pain he has kept inside has never broke him, since he had a goal to ensure his mother’s wellbeing. I hope he faces his demons and can truly be free of it. He’s not wrong that he is the only child to his mother, may not be to his father, that’s a private matter between him and his father. Regardless of all the personal reasons, he has become who he is through his own hard work and dedication, with a goal to give his mother a happily ever after.. that’s very humble of him and to be such a loving and an adoring 🥰 son.
He is an awesome talent. He is a beautiful person and I wish him the very best in life and love. He deserves someone who will love him always and be kind to him. I have watched several dramas which he starred and loved each and every one of them. I think that his father and step sister are despicable for attempting to use Kim Soo Hyun to further their career. He is one of the highest paid actors and rightfully so.
I admire this guy for making it in the industry…blessed with good looks, very talented, stayed focus in everything he does n most of all loved his mom…As for the family dynamics, I agree with all the commentators…
I wish him more success in life. I hope he'll continue to focus in his craft, in life & letting his mom experience so many good things. Make his father regret what he'd done to them.
Soohyun deserves everything in life, wish him more more more alot of opportunities, he is such a great and amazing actor, Queen of Tears made me one of his lovingly fan AWWW. God bless you Kim Soohyun oppa❤️
He is one of my most favourite actor of all time. He is just so outstanding as a person, despite all he has been through, tells me so much about this kid. I wish him and his mom all the very best. Shame on his father and/or his half sister.
Kim Soo Hyun is a great actor to watch! Protray his characters very well especially in his recent movie Queen of tears with actress Kim Joo Won who also acted very well. Hope to see both of them act again in future romantic dramas!
I first saw Kim Soohyun in My love from another star, then in Moon embracing sun. After those I watched his other dramas as well. I love him as an actor. Didn't know much about his personal life. But because of this video, got to know about his life as well. Now I admire him, more than as an actor. ❤️
I'm a single mom going through the same experiences one thing I know a true and loving mom will continue to make her family feel secure in spite of the different challenges she's facing I can testify to this even when things look dim . Thanks for sharing your life struggles because my spirit have been dim tire to think of my next move watching this I believe that am going to make it no matter what my come for my daughter..
Hi Beverly, speaking as a single mom with a grown and successful daughter, you and your daughter will make it - love and guidance is what our children need. As long as she has you in her corner she will be able to meet life's challenges. Stay positive and take care.
I’m here reading comment just because I just watched “ queen of tears”. Poor guy! His calm personality shows through his acting. Very calm and charismatic man❤.
I first seen him in It’s okay to not be okay, and I was at the lowest point of my life and that show was like a godsend to me….. to know that it’s just part of being an adult and to continue to be strong and take it on day by day. ❤️
Kim soo hyun is the best in acting esp.historical drama.he can easily memorize the script..and Kim so humble and kind hearted..I love to watch the moon embracing the sun.. NUKDO and more..
And they always come out from their holes to ask you for things when you are at your highest. I feel like the sister doesn’t want to admit it but she was staring to follow in her dad’s example. Hopefully she can comeback in the future all on her own and learn from this.
Kim Soo Hyun is my eternal love❤. He is the reason I am into Kdramas and I have been into it since 10 years continuously. I always look forward to seeing his dramas and I am a bit sad that there's no drama of him recently. I just don't like to listen any bad news about him. Why you guys are trying to tarnish his name. Just leave him alone.
@@KimSooHyun. Are you for real? I am so happy that I am crying out of happiness. God bless you my Star. I have seen all your work. Please come back to the screen with a block buster like "Moon embracing the sun / My love from another Star ". I am from India.🌹
@@KimSooHyun. Kim Soo Hyun shi, this is an unbelievable conversation and I am really thrilled for your words. Life in India is good and I am a proud Indian. Once again wishing you God's blessings and looking forward to your next drama as a Superman.
@@Dong_Hwa23 I’m honored and I really appreciate the way you appreciate my word’s,I would love to give out some of my time in getting to know the amazing soul communicating with me
Even after so much struggling in his life even after seeing many bad things in life ,he is calm ,looking him in kdramas give us a positive vibe from him .he raised well .I wish him a good n happy life ahead .he is deserving all these
Да он сестру вроде как и не видел ни разу и с отцом не общался!сестра младшая,как она его продвинет?ее и не знает никто,а он давно успешный.Абы что врут!
With a tragic past, a star was born. Family is the ones that can hurt u the most. Despite all his struggles he rose up in the limeline an made his mother proud. His mother is a great woman for raising her son to become this great person. Heart warming story. Pls keep moving forward an never let others bring u down. Inspiring!!!
The word “tragic” can be misleading as title for this video. It turns out the actor had a rough and tough life growing up and I truly feel for him. But the best part about it was that he chose to do better for himself and his mum regardless of how difficult their circumstances had become. All that hardship, courage and tenacity rewarded him as one of the most outstanding actors of the kdrama world. Title of this video could then be “the Extraordinary life of actor Kim Soo Hyun” in recognition of his resilience and achievements. Great job Sir.! Hullo from Geraldton WAustralia.
I love him so much. He is a great actor and very charismatic and handsome. 🫰 it's one of my favorite actors. Love his work. I'm so glad he passed all those bad memories and continued his life with his mom and the one he loves. Fighting 🫰🫰🫰🫰❤️❤️❤️❤️
He’s a super nice guy, who works and sacrifices for his family and success. It’s not easy being a star and he does have some great qualities that shine through his personality! Go higher always!❤🎬🌟🌞💫✨
He was just too good in 'its okey not to be okay' so it kinda makes sense that he was able to pull his tragic experience into succesfull acting. True overcoming hardships
You are one of South Korea's top stars and have worked hard to get there. I hope you will continue to have a prosperous, and happy life. I look forward to see you perform in the future. Love you 💜
Thank you for your lovely like and comments. It's great to know you’ve been really supportive and being such a devoted fan. Much love 🌹🦋🎶🦋💞 Where are you from and how long have you been a fan?
It is always very sad when we hear of single parent households, since children need both parents to grow happy, healthy and productive lives. I'm always very impressed with people beating the odds and becoming successful due to their own hardwork and skills. Good luck to him and his mother to live a happy healthy life going forward.
children do not need both parents to grow. tons of marriages with useless fathers or mothers who are in name only. I see twenty families per year. the single parenting children came up just as good. all depends on how good and wise is your parenting. two different opinions will dissect a child's path. only one view and guiding light will help a child progress.
Correction : *2 healthy loving parents. As a Psych student who has a deadbeat Father I can attest that this mindset that both is needed no matter how toxic it is, is what breaks a child's soul the most.
@@jinijinxer97 Correct, we do not need a toxic environment for a child to grow up in. However the ideal situation is a happy healthy Father and Mother for a child to grow up healthy in. Children pine for both father and mother from an early age and they need the influences of both to grow up psychologically healthy. No amount of defence from the single parent home will make up for this loss of a parent.
@@jinijinxer97 Yes I didn't have a father growing up and I was very affected by that. Yet he was an alcholic and abusive so it was better that I didn't grow up with him. But we must never use that excuse for our own bad behaviours, ever! Just saying.
Give credit and praise to Kim Soo-Hyun's mother for raising him well, for not speaking badly about his father. I believe she is probably kind too, because he is said to be kind...
Love this actor. So unassuming. No tragedy there, but determination and persistence to make it better for him and his mother. Psychologically, scars of that nature sometimes never heal, but helps to take control of what, and how they achieve and maintain stability in life. I wish him the best and pray he continues to soar in his life. ❤❤❤❤
I liked his sister on that show; she was one of my favorites; however, she made a family-related statement during the interview and got panished for it. She is now a nobody. She just disappeared. Everyone discussed her family issue, which ruined her prospective career. She thought she could get popular with this action? get the spotlight?
@@lilarodrigues2698 she revealed they are siblings. no one knew at that moment and that made her popular but then the doors closed for her because netizens believed she revealed the secret on purpose. to take advantage of her brother popularity.
Lots of love nd loads of blessings for him I love sooo much he is my first best korean actor in dramas his smiles so beautiful ..just want see him in more n more dramas ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Kim Soo Hyun is my first favorite Korean actor since The Moon That Embraces the Sun. Then I devoured any movie or series where he was present. There will always be suspicions on motives . But I hope Kim Soo Hyun will get past this and move on. If KSH's father and sister get successful, let's be happy for them too.
I heard that He dated 2NE1 Dara as well but they didn't push through because He just started soaring high in his career, his background is somehow similar to Dara's Childhood maybe that's why they both understand each other. I wish he's the Kind of Guy Dara End up with. A Loving son to his mom. ❤🥰
Hello I love him as an actor he's very handsome and seem as a person with a good heart. Yes in your youth your mom and you struggled a lot, but you came out victoriously. Never hold anger or hatred inside, because anyone who wasn't apart of your it's their loss you came out such a respectful young man. I pray that you will always be prosperous happy and blessed. I commend your mother and you how y'all stuck together with the love and compassion that you have for one another and as you became successful your mother was the number one person you make sure you looked out for keep looking up doing you stay strong. When you're working work your job do not let your job work you. Thumbs up
I just cried.... While watching this video.... As my situation is sort of related like his situation....... My father also abandoned me my brother, my two elder sister and my mom... My mom is fighting against my father....there is no one supporting us..... We have financial problems.... And it is hard for my mom paying our school fees..... I also want to earn lots of money so i can buy things...which my mom dreamed of She is my superhero..... I love her soo much.... Mom one day i will change everything.... I love you
Commending Kim Soo Hyun, you did it, made everyone regret any negative comments. It's easy for those to speak good about your, especially since they know nothing and contributed nothing. Ou did it the right way, you and your Mom made each other successful. Kudos to you, and praise to your mom for doing an outstanding job as a single mother. Proud of you both.
I love Kim Soo Hyun. He has stolen my heart through his acting. He blew me away in"the moon embracing the sun" drama. He is original and believable. Since then, I have watched all his dramas. He is one of my best Korean actors. His future is bright. He has an amazing personality. Keep doing what you do best, Kim. I love you as a mother and you are my cheer leader.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
So hyun is one of the best. I started falling for his talents and handsomeness when I had watched more than 5x his “my love from the star” and from then I watched and will watch all his k dramas and movies.
I have always loved Kim Soo Hyun for strength of character to pull through odds and his determination. That is aside for him being multi-talented. These are why he remains my best korean actor
Running Man introduced to Me everything about Korea, K-pop and these dramas, for this reason,I kept Running Man above all bands and everything got to do with Korea ❤️❤️✨
He has overcome so much. I am so impressed with him. He is talented and such a great singer himself. I loved him in the series Dream High, and The Moon that Embrace the Sun...
I've just finished watching Kim Soo Hyun in My Love From the Star and was absolutely blown away by how amazing and charismatic an actor he is. I knew next to nothing about the show when I started watching it and totally fell in love with it, and am so happy to learn it did so well upon its release. A quick criticism of this video: at the 3 minute mark it goes into WAY more detail about his deadbeat father than I ever wanted to know, taking well-earned attention away from Kim Soo Hyun. What an amazing actor and impressive young man. Now I'm off to binge It's Okay to Not Be Okay and hope it's even half as good as MLFTS. :)
