Kim So Hyun’s social media habits raise eyebrows with 6,000+ followings
Kim So Hyun is opening up about her unusual social media past — and it’s catching attention.
The Good Boy star, currently starring alongside Park Bo Gum on Netflix, revealed in an interview with ELLE Korea that she follows more than 6,000 accounts on Instagram and Twitter.
She explained how, early in her career, she personally replied to fans and gave advice on social media, which led to her massive follows.
“Especially in the early days of Instagram or Twitter, I used to give people advice,” Kim said with a chuckle.
She admitted she offered encouragement like “stay strong” and career advice, especially to aspiring actors, carefully avoiding relationship tips because she was “clueless about it.”
“I listened to their concerns sincerely,” Kim shared.
Her kindness turned into a huge social media network, but the actress says she’s grown more cautious now.
“I follow back once in a while,” she revealed.
Kim adds she screens new followers by checking their first messages to judge if they’re longtime fans. Ultimately, sincerity is what wins a follow from her.
