In this so-called ‘cancel culture era’, people easily cancel someone for the tiniest mistakes they make.
There have been multiple actors who went through this kind of situation.
Kim Seon Ho
Right after he finally got his lead role in the drama Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha, things went south for Seon Ho.
Fresh after the finale, a rumor broke out. An unknown woman made a post on a forum claiming to be Seon Ho’s ex-girlfriend.
She went all out in her post, showing bitterness and expressed how hurt she was when she was promised a marriage and was then allegedly manipulated to get an abortion to protect the man’s career.
Netizens quickly guessed it was Kim Seon Ho, then people made a petition to get him removed from the variety show 2 Days & 1 Night.
However, SALT Entertainment added salt to the wound by saying “they’re investigating”, instead of denying the whole thing, which led people to speculate that there is truth to the accusations.
Eventually, Seon Ho admitted she was his ex-girlfriend and apologized for his actions which then led him losing his movie projects.
Despite it being all proven false, what’s done is done, Seon Ho has already lost some of his projects and is slowly starting to revive his career.
