The event is set to feature a lineup of performances, interviews, and fan meetups alongside prominent Indonesian stars, marking a significant Hallyu collaboration for the country’s largest private broadcaster.
While his agency confirmed the appearance to highlight his strong regional presence across Southeast Asia, the announcement has triggered intense public debate.
Supporters and fans have warmly welcomed the news, celebrating his return to major international broadcasts and praising his enduring global draw.
However, the invitation has also faced fierce backlash from critics and concerned viewers.
Opponents of the appearance pointed to past allegations and unresolved public scrutiny surrounding the late actress Kim Sae-ron, arguing that the broadcaster should be more mindful of public sentiment.

As RCTI finalizes preparations for the star-studded celebration, opinion remains deeply divided between dedicated fans and critics calling for greater accountability.
The Seongdong Police Station in Seoul has officially decided not to indict actor Kim Soo-hyun regarding alleged violations of the Child Welfare Act, concluding that there was no evidence of wrongdoing.
The decision comes approximately a year and three months after the bereaved family of the late actress Kim Sae-ron filed a lawsuit alleging that the actor had dated her while she was still a minor.
Following the ruling, Kim Soo-hyun’s representatives issued a statement highlighting that allegations involving sexual abuse or dating a minor were not recognized by investigators.
Emphasizing that the official conclusion of the investigative authorities is clear, the actor has since resumed his professional commitments.
It included commercial activities and international schedules, such as an upcoming fan meeting with the Philippine lifestyle brand BENCH on October 2.
