K-drama actor Kim Seon-ho, who was embroiled in a false abortion scandal involving his ex-girlfriend, reportedly developed shingles due to intense stress during his hiatus.

According to the YouTube channel of former entertainment reporter Lee Jin-ho, the stress compromised the actor's immune system, causing shingles, which is a painful rash across one side of the face or body.
