Veteran actress Kim Hee Sun cancels rent for her building amid the resurgence of the COVID-19 pandemic in South Korea.

Some publications reported Kim Hee Sun participating in the "Kind Landlord" campaign due to the COVID-19 pandemic resurgence in South Korea. The said campaign helps tenants have lower rent than other market prices to make their businesses afloat.

One tenant told other media outlets that Kim Hee Sun did not receive a month's rent for the actress's building. The tenant continued that the actress was afraid that the merchants would be in financial trouble due to the pandemic.

Kim Hee Sun's label, Hinge Entertainment, released an official statement regarding this news. The label stated that the actress didn't mean for the information to be made public, saying that she was embarrassed that the story made headlines.

In other news, Kim Hee Sun will be starring in the sci-fi drama "Alice," premiering on August 28. The drama did not hesitate to show the viewers what's to come in the upcoming episodes with tense, dramatic actions, car chase scenes, fight scenes, and surging emotions.
