Kim Soo Hyun is facing intense scrutiny, and now Disney+ has finally spoken up about the fate of his drama Knock-Off.

On March 31, posts started circulating in online communities, claiming that Disney+ had responded to inquiries about the drama. According to these reports, Disney+ stated that Knock-Off is "not on the current release schedule."

One netizen who contacted Disney+ shared, "They never responded to my questions before, but now they finally gave an answer."

Earlier, on March 21, a Disney+ representative had already confirmed that Knock-Off’s release was put "on hold after careful review." The drama was originally set to premiere in April after Hyper Knife, but its future is now unclear.

With Knock-Off reportedly having a massive production budget of 60 billion KRW (approximately $45 million USD), the stakes are high. If the drama is fully canceled instead of just delayed, industry insiders say Kim Soo Hyun could face a penalty fee ranging from 18 billion KRW ($13.5 million USD) to a staggering 180 billion KRW ($135 million USD).

This follows industry norms where actors may have to compensate for projects canceled due to their personal controversies.

Meanwhile, Kim Soo Hyun has strongly denied all allegations against him. At a press conference on March 31, he addressed the rumors claiming he had dated the late Kim Sae Ron when she was a minor and that he pressured her to repay debts.

During the emotional press conference, Kim Soo Hyun stated, "I did not date the deceased when she was a minor. And the claim that my agency pressured her to repay debts after I ignored her, leading to her tragic decision, is also not true."

As the controversy continues, fans are watching closely to see what will happen next with Knock-Off and whether Kim Soo Hyun will face financial consequences.

BTS's V is making his fans fall even more in love with him as he shares moments from his life just 40 days before his military discharge.

On April 30, V posted several new photos on his Instagram story, giving fans a sneak peek into his daily routine.

Among the photos was a beautiful shot of cherry blossoms, accompanied by the word "cherry blossom" as he expressed his longing for spring.

He followed up with more photos, sharing how much he wanted to enjoy the season with his fans.

To make the post even more special, V added background music from BTS member J-Hope's song Sweet Dreams and Design by the American punk band Gustav.

It turns out that Gustav was grateful for V introducing their music to the world and even received fan comments saying they discovered the band through him.

In another adorable photo, V posed with CF director Ray J. Yi (Lee Jun Yeob), with flowers in his hair. The director also shared the cute photo, adding the word "flower" to express how happy he was with the moment.

But it wasn’t all about flowers and beauty—V also gave fans a peek at his workout routine. He proudly showed off his toned arm muscles in a picture, though his face appeared a little thinner.

This is likely due to his diet, as he’s been working hard to maintain his figure ahead of his discharge. Before enlisting, V weighed 62 kg, and during his service, he reached 86 kg. Now, he’s lost 10 kg and is preparing for his return to the public eye.

Interestingly, V has been working out at the same place where singer Kim Jong Kook films his popular YouTube channel Jim Jong Kook, sparking fan excitement and hopes that V might make an appearance on the show after he’s discharged.

As soon as V shared his latest update, his name—"KIM TAEHYUNG"—shot to the top of real-time trending charts worldwide. Fans from all over the globe, including in the U.S., couldn’t get enough of the updates, proving once again the massive impact V has.

He is set to be discharged from the military on June 10, and fans are eagerly awaiting his return.
