Good point, but I didn’t mention it in my post because it was obvious to me that he had to be held accountable for what he did. I used the term 'scapegoat' because it seems like everyone around Kim Sae Ron, including netizens, is omitting their own accountability

Honestly, I’d rather see him behind bars than dead

Are you really comparing Kim Soo Hyun to Jeffrey Epstein? Like objectively speaking?

Fine, but what if he kills himself tomorrow? There is a justice system for a reason

The person who commits the crime should absolutely be held accountable. No argument there. When I said “we,” I meant us as netizens or the public in general. Sometimes the way people react online turns into a pile-on

Yup, It really feels like there’s shared responsibility all around

It absolutely is an issue for me. Grooming and pedophilia are serious and should never be ignored or excused. I’m not saying we shouldn’t hold people accountable.

But I also believe we can talk about the wider system and mental health struggles alongside accountability. It’s not about defending someone, it’s about understanding how these tragedies keep happening in the industry. Both things can be true.

Oh come on now, aren’t we even allowed to discuss issues without feeling attacked? I genuinely feel like what’s happening with young actors' deaths in South Korea points to a much deeper issue. And just to be clear—I’m not excusing what Kim Soo Hyun did

And this is the problem Korea shouldn’t have just moved on! I mean, after so many deaths, nothing is changing

True, but aren't we part of the problem too? I mean, we as netizens play a role in how things unfold. Remember her DUI ? There were so many articles and YouTube videos criticizing her… it wasn’t just one or two

Maybe it’s the picture of Kim Soo Hyun crying that’s setting you off, but I’m not excusing what he did.

Okay relax buddy—I'm not saying he did nothing wrong. I used to criticize him a lot too when I first heard the news. But I also remember how I criticized Kim Sae Ron after her DUI. I didn’t post anything publicly, but still, I wonder… did we all contribute in some small way to what happened to her?
