South Korean actor Kim Ji-soo, known for his breakout role in Black Rider, continues to build his career in the Philippines. Now based in the country, Ji-soo has taken on various projects, including his upcoming role in the highly anticipated film Mujigae.
He also recently appeared at the GMA Gala, where he won the Red Carpet Scene Stealer award, and joined the cast of the long-running GMA medical drama Abot Kamay Na Pangarap.
Ji-soo also signed a contract with Sparkle GMA Artist Center for endorsement deals and expanded his online presence with new vlogs on his YouTube channel, JiSoo Road, and a TikTok account, further engaging with his growing fanbase.
Despite his professional success, some social media users continue to reference past allegations of school violence. In 2021, Ji-soo faced accusations of bullying during his school years, which he has since resolved.
In an interview with South Korean outlet Sports Chosun, Ji-soo stated, “I’ve been able to clear up misunderstandings with the friends involved. We talked and reconciled,” Ji-soo said and addressed false rumors, saying, “All sexual assault allegations were false, and an apology was received.”
Talking about his career, Ji-soo expressed gratitude for the support from his Filipino fans.
“The opportunities I’ve had here have been incredible. There’s so much more I want to accomplish,” he said.
Ji-soo shared ambitions to challenge himself with new roles, including performing in English and taking on a play or musical.
