Others particularly pointed out that their anger and annoyance with the casting stemmed from the “hate” that Kim Seon Ho fans sent to Suzy when they were filming Start-Up, with many sharing their memories of 2020 and what the female actress went through.
I still haven't forgiven Seon Ho's fans for what they did to Suzy during Start-Up
They called her a whore and spread hatred on all her posts. Now, they're pretending to be her fans just because of a casting news,I was everywhere defending my girl like crazy😩😩 https://t.co/xdWW8mGqpv pic.twitter.com/N25aBCRwq6— kdramadreamer ✨✨✨ (@Juliannah___) August 14, 2024

LOL that day I was thinking maybe not gonna have a reunion so soon after SU fanwars 😂
But, good actors & actresses will eventually work together again. And Netflix recognized the traffic/trend from SU, at the end of the day it's business after all. https://t.co/ubGYrRKMaW
