On social media, reactions ranged from disbelief to sharp criticism. One user posted, “Kim Soo Hyun’s press conference was just a narcissist trying to tell everyone he’s a star who protects a lot of people. But what can he really provide if he can’t back up his words?” Another wrote, "The image-conscious star called himself ‘Star Kim Soo Hyun’—get over yourself already." Others expressed frustration, noting his focus on himself and his career instead of addressing more pressing issues. One person commented, “He keeps talking about himself. What a narcissistic person.” One more added, “Learned a new Korean word today—Narcissist: Kim Soo Hyun. ‘You’re such a Kim Soo Hyun.’ Stop being a KSH.”
A baffled netizen wrote, “I’m speechless. All he talked about was himself and his career. I thought he had a bit of maturity left. So, Soohyun might be a NPD after all.” Kim Soo Hyun's behavior and his narcissistic tendencies led netizens to claim that he was faking his tears and acting like a victim during the press conference.
