[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Kim Bong-ju] Actor Shin Hyun-joon has temporarily suspended his activities on KBS 2TV's "The Return of Superman" (Superman is Back), in which he was appearing.

Shin Hyun-joon's agency, HJ Film, stated on the 15th, "Shin Hyun-joon's family is suffering too much damage. To prevent secondary damage from affecting the family, we have requested understanding from the production team of 'The Return of Superman' and asked for a temporary suspension."

They added, "We will work to resolve the ongoing issues properly."
