The post in question was a poll asking netizens to vote on Kim Soo-hyun’s participation in the show, with options like "I'm worried he’ll be removed from the ‘88 Line’" and "Please don’t let him join Good Day." Amid the ongoing debate over whether Kim Soo-hyun should stay on the show, G-Dragon's initial engagement with the post sparked further discussion. However, he later removed his like.

Kim Soo-hyun is currently appearing on Good Day alongside fellow 1988-born stars such as G-Dragon, Lee Soo-hyuk, Jung Hae-in, Im Si-wan, and Kwanghee. However, his participation in the program has come under scrutiny due to allegations involving the late Kim Sae-ron. Recent claims suggest that Kim Soo-hyun was in a relationship with Kim Sae-ron when she was underage, raising questions about his future involvement in the show.

Although some speculated that Kim Soo-hyun would skip the scheduled recording on the 13th, the filming proceeded as planned. The Good Day production team stated, "We minimized the scheduled activities," but did not comment on the rumors of Kim Soo-hyun’s potential departure.

Meanwhile, the family of the late Kim Sae-ron has been making allegations through the YouTube channel Garo Sero Institute (Gaseyeon) since March 10. They claim that Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Sae-ron were in a six-year relationship starting in 2016, when she was 15. As evidence, they released a handwritten letter allegedly sent by Kim Soo-hyun to Kim Sae-ron during his military service, along with a photo of him kissing her on the cheek. Gaseyeon also accused Gold Medalist, Kim Soo-hyun’s agency, of demanding a hefty penalty fee following Kim Sae-ron’s DUI accident.

In response, Gold Medalist issued a statement on March 10, calling Gaseyeon’s allegations "completely false." The agency listed the accusations made against Kim Soo-hyun, stating, "These claims are malicious and utterly baseless," and announced that they are considering "the strongest possible legal action against the spread of misinformation by Gaseyeon."

Despite the ongoing controversy, the agency remained silent on the additional allegations. However, on the 13th, they finally issued a statement, saying, "We will release an official response next week with clear evidence to refute these groundless rumors."
