Kim Soo Hyun's hit drama My Love from the Star airs in Brazil despite Kim Sae Ron controversy. Is his comeback on the horizon?
Kim Soo Hyun's iconic drama My Love from the Star is officially making its debut in Brazil today (June 2), marking its first broadcast in South America 11 years after it originally aired in Korea. The move is being seen not just as a nostalgic rewatch, but as a sign that the drama's enduring popularity is being recognised for its cultural value, separate from current celebrity controversies. The development comes as a rare win for Kim Soo Hyun, who has recently faced global backlash and boycott calls following resurfaced allegations about his past relationship with the late actress Kim Sae Ron. He has been accused of dating her when she was underage—claims he has denied—clarifying instead that they were briefly involved only after she reached the legal age of consent. SBT launches a dedicated K-drama time slot for My Love from the Star. According to K-media outlet BNT News, Brazil's largest private broadcaster, SBT, announced that it will air the hit K-drama at 4:45 p.m. local time. This broadcast marks the start of its new 'Asian Production Line' programming block, created in response to the rising demand for Korean and Asian content in Brazil. SBT explained the choice by saying, 'The demand for Korean popular culture content in Brazil is increasing explosively.' My Love from the Star broke ratings history First aired in Korea from December 2013 to February 2014, My Love from the Star tells the story of Do Min Jun, an alien who crash-landed on Earth during the Joseon Dynasty, and his relationship with top star Cheon Song Yi, played by actress Jun Ji Hyun. The 21-episode fantasy rom-com became a massive hit in Korea, starting at 15.6% viewership and climbing to a high of 28.1%, averaging an impressive 24.3%. After the global Hallyu wave took the world by storm, the drama was recognised as one of the cult classics, cementing Kim Soo Hyun's position as one of the top drama stars. Is Kim Soo Hyun ready for his big comeback? With renewed global attention on his most famous work, fans are speculating whether this could signal a comeback for Kim Soo Hyun. Despite recent controversy involving Kim Sae Ron, many supporters continue to stand by him, separating his acting legacy from personal matters. His longtime followers and fan club have been organising events in his support, sending strong messages, and defending his legacy, even as the actor faces boycotts from all corners in South Korea. Uncertainty still surrounds Disney+ drama 'Knock Off' While My Love from the Star is enjoying a resurgence, the status of Kim Soo Hyun's new Disney+ project Knock Off remains unclear. No release date or official update has been confirmed, leaving fans waiting to see what direction his career takes next.

Lee Jong Suk suits up as stoic office lawyer in new stills from Law and the City starring Moon Ga Young; find out premiere date
Lee Jong Suk is ready to return to television in a fresh and grounded role in the upcoming legal drama Law and the City. The series is set to premiere on July 5, 2025. It promises a realistic depiction of the lives of salaried lawyers who juggle professional obligations and personal challenges. It is set in South Korea's most competitive legal district. Lee Jong Suk: Not your typical K-drama lawyer In Law and the City, Lee Jong Suk takes on the role of Ahn Ju Hyeong. He plays an associate attorney working at Kyungmin Law Firm in the Seocho district. Unlike many lawyers who race to climb the professional ladder, Ahn Ju Hyeong is a figure of consistency. Having spent nearly a decade at the same law firm, he's neither chasing glory nor planning to branch out. Instead, he finds value in routine, job stability, and doing his work thoroughly, even if it means going against the grain. Stills from the drama show him walking into the office exactly on time, settling into his regular seat, and sighing at the start of another long workday. But as soon as the day begins, he's fully immersed. He's analyzing past cases, meeting clients face-to-face, and demonstrating calm professionalism during tough legal situations. In another released still, Ahn Ju Hyeong is shown enjoying a lunch break with co-workers. Despite his modest personality and aversion to the spotlight, Ahn Ju Hyeong is far from average. Known as the 'brain' of the law firm, he's valued for his razor-sharp logic and meticulous legal research. His ability to handle cases based on facts rather than theatrics has earned him a strong reputation among peers. Plot and cast Law and the City stands apart from other law-centric dramas by taking a more personal, slice-of-life approach. Rather than focusing solely on high-profile trials or dramatic legal battles, the series follows the quiet yet meaningful moments that define the lives of associate attorneys. Alongside Lee Jong Suk, the drama boasts a strong ensemble cast that helps build the world around Kyungmin Law Firm. Moon Ga Young stars as Kang Hui Ji, a junior associate attorney. Kang You Seok, Ryu Hye Young, and Im Sung Jae round out the main cast as Cho Chang Won, Bae Mun Jeong, and Ha Sang Gi. These five junior lawyers represent different walks of life and legal philosophies. Their interactions are expected to be at the heart of the series, shaping both the courtroom cases and their office bonds. Whether it's quiet competition, late-night confessions over dinner, or conflicting values, their stories aim to reflect the everyday highs and lows of young professionals. Anticipation builds ahead of premiere Law and the City has already begun generating buzz for its fresh concept and Lee Jong Suk's grounded portrayal. As the drama prepares for its July 5 premiere, viewers are looking forward to a series that doesn't rely on melodrama or legal fireworks. Instead, it draws strength from subtle performances, thoughtful writing, and the authenticity of daily life in a high-pressure profession.
