Kwon Nara’s Career Challenges: Two Setbacks Linked to Kim Soo-hyun

At present, Kim Soo-hyun‘s personal scandal has taken center stage on social media, profoundly affecting his once-stellar career trajectory. The repercussions of this ongoing controversy extend beyond the actor himself, impacting several of his colleagues, notably Kwon Nara.

Kwon Nara is now at risk of facing a hiatus from television in 2025 due to significant issues surrounding the drama “Knock Off”, in which she stars alongside Kim Soo-hyun. This project is currently Kwon Nara’s sole involvement for the year, yet it is jeopardized by the controversies tied to her co-star. Concerns are mounting regarding the possibility that the drama might not air at all or could face an outright boycott.

While official announcements regarding potential postponements or cancellations have not been made, the troubles swirling around Kim Soo-hyun lead many to speculate that the drama’s scheduled premiere in April 2025 could be in jeopardy. Moreover, even if “Knock Off” manages to air as planned, it may encounter significant viewer backlash, potentially harming Kwon Nara’s career further.

Kwon Nara Faces Career Stumble 2 Times due to Kim Soo-hyun

Kwon Nara, a prominent South Korean actress born in 1991, is known for her performances in acclaimed dramas such as “My Mister”, “Itaewon Class”, “Royal Secret Agent”, and “Bulgasal: Immortal Souls”, among others.

This is not the first time Kwon Nara has encountered professional setbacks linked to Kim Soo-hyun. Last year, her drama “The Midnight Studio” struggled to gain traction, partly due to its airing simultaneously with “Queen of Tears”, featuring Kim Soo-hyun in the lead role. Despite its production quality, “The Midnight Studio” achieved disappointing ratings, with an average viewership of only 499, 000 per episode and a 2.09% average rating.
