Kim Soo Hyun's 'Love Letters' Reveal Details of Controversy
Actor Kim Soo Hyun is in the news.
He's dealing with rumors about his relationship with a late actress.
His lawyer revealed around 150 letters the actor wrote to someone else during his military service, to prove these two weren't romantically involved.
These letters show a different tone than one letter sent to the actress, which contained no romantic expressions.
The legal team states that there is sufficient evidence, that they were not in a relationship during the time period.
