Kim Soo Hyun’s ‘My Love from the Star’ makes international comeback amid Kim Sae Ron controversy

Kim Soo Hyun’s timeless K-drama My Love from the Star is seeing a significant resurgence internationally, debuting in Brazil and re-airing in Taiwan. This global revival comes at a time when the late Kim Sae Ron’s dating scandal has reignited public interest in the star and his past projects.

The series, originally aired in 2013, is now making its South American debut on Brazil’s major commercial broadcaster SBT. Starting June 9, the show will be part of the network’s newly launched Asian content programming block. This marks the first time the show will be broadcast in Brazil, over a decade after its original release in South Korea. According to SBT, the decision was driven by a sharp increase in demand for Korean pop culture content among Brazilian audiences. Fans have already taken to social media to express their excitement, setting the stage for a successful international comeback.
