Actor Kim Moo-yul will hold his first official fanmeeting since debut. The key point commonly confirmed across reports is that Kim Moo-yul will hold "2026 KIM MOO YUL 1st FANMEETING Maju" at Gabin Art Hall in Seoul at 3 p.m. KST on August 23, 2026.

Kim Moo-yul is preparing a space to meet fans directly outside of his screen and stage works. The fanmeeting will be held under the title "Maju." According to reports, the title is a pure Korean word chosen by Kim himself, carrying the hope that he and his fans can face one another more closely and share a time of mutual connection. Because the event name itself places the actor-fan relationship at the center, this fanmeeting is meaningful less as a simple promotional schedule and more as the first official face-to-face event between a long-active actor and his fans.

The basic event information is relatively clear. The fanmeeting will take place at Gabin Art Hall in Seoul at 3 p.m. KST on August 23, 2026. Tickets will be sold exclusively through Ticketlink, with general ticket sales opening at 8 p.m. KST on July 24, 2026. Reports said detailed ticketing information can be checked through Red Slippers' official social media channels.

The fanmeeting is expected to include talks, stages and several segments. However, the detailed order of the program, whether guests will appear, and the exact on-site structure have not yet been disclosed in full. What can currently be confirmed is the event title, date, time, venue, ticketing platform, general ticket sales opening time, and a program direction centered on communication with fans. For a fanmeeting article, the important task is to organize the information audiences actually need to confirm, rather than overstating expectations in advance.

The attention around Kim Moo-yul's first official fanmeeting is also connected to his recent project flow. Kim made his debut through the film "Saigan" and has since broadened his range through films including "War of the Arrows," "Forgotten," "The Gangster, the Cop, the Devil," "The Devil's Deal" and "The Roundup: Punishment," as well as dramas including "Bad Guys: Vile City," "Trolley," Netflix series "Juvenile Justice" and seasons two and three of "Sweet Home." His stage experience in musicals such as "Kinky Boots" and "Thrill Me" is also an important part of his filmography.

Recently, Kim appeared as Na Hwa-jin, a supervisor at the Teacher's Rights Protection Bureau, in the Netflix series "True Education." The series is based on the Naver webtoon of the same name and centers on the story of the bureau as it deals with problems inside schools. According to a MediaToday report, Netflix's "2026 First-Half Viewing Report," released on July 17, 2026 KST, listed "True Education" at No. 6 among all Netflix titles with 48.2 million views. The report explained that this figure was calculated by dividing total viewing hours by the work's runtime.

It would be difficult to define that figure solely as Kim Moo-yul's individual achievement. Still, the context can be read together: his first official fanmeeting was announced at a time when interest in the actor had widened again after the release of the series. His record across film, drama and musical theater, combined with a recent point of contact through an online series, appears to have led naturally into an event where he can meet fans in person.

At this stage, the detailed program and on-site response to the fanmeeting cannot be judged in advance. What is confirmed is that Kim Moo-yul will hold his first official fanmeeting, "Maju," on August 23, 2026 KST and is expected to share conversation and stages with fans at close range. How the actor, often first encountered through his characters, will tell his own story is expected to become clear on the day of the event.
