Suzy uploaded to her personal Instagram on October 22nd endorsing the film. The caption stated: "The Story Of Us" #KimJiYoungBornIn1982. She is happy to share with the world that she is a supporter of the film. She is from the same agency, SOOP Management together with Gong Yoo and Jung Yu Mi. She only expressed her affection and support for her seniors and their great film. We all want to cheer for our seniors for doing a good job.

However, the topic became very controversial due to the movie's controversial feminist focus. Netizens have taken Suzy's defense for promoting the movie stating:

 "Suzy's label seniors are in the film. I don't understand why this is a big issue."

 "There is nothing wrong with her promoting this movie. People are being weird about it."

 "They came from the same label."

"Suzy is just happy for her seniors. We should be open-minded."

The movie, "Kim Ji Young, Born 1982" is based on the popular novel of the same name that revolves around the story of a woman named Kim Ji Young who was born in 1982. Narrating the experiences and ordinary life of Kim Ji Young as daughter, wife, mother, and co-employee, the novel has echoed with many and sold approximately a million copies in Korea. It is a successful novel of all- time. However, because the book talks about feminism, which is a high debate topic in Korea, it has received a lot of controversy for some time.

Even celebrities including Seo Ji Hye and Red Velvet's Irene have caught a lot of attention after they mentioned the novel. They also received bashing from the people around them.

The "nation's first love" also attached "Kim Ji Young, Born 1982" official poster to show their support for director Kim Do Young. It is set to premiere on October 23.

A day before the film's premiere, the movie has shown an encouraging sign of huge success with the reservation rate of almost 50%. 

Fans will not let their guard down for their idol Suzy. They are happy that she is a supportive person for her labels. They are friends and they need to encourage each other. Nothing is wrong to be a genuine person and respect for their seniors. The film is a great film that everyone should watch and understand.
