[DEBATE] Will Kim Hyun Joong's career be hurt by his domestic abuse scandal?

Kim Hyun Joong
With Kim Hyun Joong's domestic abuse case still ongoing, some K-Pop fans can't help but wonder what this scandal means for the idol-slash-actor's future career. Check out this debate between Katia Kourtseva from San Jose, California and Christopher Wawra from Glendale, California, as Kourtseva argues that Kim Hyun Joong's career is over, and Wawra states that there is no such thing as bad publicity.

While I agree with Kourtseva's point that the "glass castle" is broken and that Kim Hyun Joong's good-guy image may be irreparable, Wawra reminds us that Chris Brown's career is doing fine despite his own domestic abuse scandal. But then that raises another question for fans, being if you don't support your favorite artist's actions (Kim Hyun Joong did admit to hitting his girlfriend), is it okay to still support their music? Is it okay for them to be successful?
