Actor Kim Soo Hyun’s Best Friend Is 16 Years Older Than Him
Though many celebrities tend to be close with their agency’s CEO, they aren’t necessarily best friends. However, it was revealed that actors Kim Soo Hyun and his former CEO share a rare friendship despite their large age gap.
During an episode of tvN’s Name List 2015, a rather surprising report about actor Kim Soo Hyun and actor-turned-CEO Bae Yong Joon was a featured story, garnering the attention of both the media and the two actors’ fans.
Name List 2015 revealed that Bae Yong Joon first saw a young Kim Soo Hyun appear in the 2009 drama Will It Snow On Christmas as the child role of actor Go Soo and immediately scouted him into KeyEast Entertainment.
Though the two started off with the usual agency president and celebrity relationship, the actors grew closer after Kim Soo Hyun landed his very first lead role for the 2011 drama, Dream High. In addition to his first leading role, Kim Soo Hyun also starred in his very first film for the 2013 work, Secretly, Greatly, with Bae Yong Joon personally driving the young idol back to his home after the movie’s premiere.
Name List 2015 also revealed that, at the time of the report, Bae Yong Joon frequently invited Kim Soo Hyun to his home and served him meals that he cooked himself. Despite their age difference of a staggering 16 years, these two are the best of friends!
In 2019, after 12 years under the agency, Kim Soo Hyun left KeyEast Entertainment to join Gold Medalist.
