Trot singer Suk-hyung (47, real name Han Suk-hyung) has lost a lawsuit regarding damages filed by the wife of a married man with whom she was allegedly involved after a video of them kissing in an elevator surfaced.
On September 17, the Seongnam branch of the Suwon District Court ruled partially in favor of the plaintiff, identified as A, in her lawsuit against Suk-hyung for damages related to the alleged affair.
The controversy began on December 29, 2025, when JTBC's 'Incident Report' aired a video in which A claimed her husband was cohabiting with Suk-hyung. The footage showed a woman, believed to be Suk-hyung, engaging in physical affection with a man inside an elevator.
In response, Suk-hyung stated, "I believed that the marital relationship was effectively over and that only legal formalities remained, so I began dating. I consider myself a victim as well." She added, "I was told that the division of assets and settlement of damages were all finalized. I have lost everything too."
However, the controversy intensified, and Suk-hyung later revealed that she ended the relationship after learning that the divorce had not been agreed upon. Ultimately, she stepped down from her role on MBN's 'Current King 3.'
Meanwhile, Suk-hyung is scheduled to perform on September 30 at the Arte Seoul Muse Hall in Mokdong, titled 'A Special Time with Fans, Singing Again,' marking her return to the stage after nine months.
Regarding the upcoming performance, Suk-hyung expressed, "I will greet everyone through song rather than words. I will return to the stage with the same heart I had when I first started singing."
