New Claims Emerge Regarding Kim Sae Ron’s Controversial Statement About Intimate Picture With Kim Soo Hyun
An exclusive report by Sports Kyunghyang revealed new details regarding Kim Sae Ron’s controversial statement regarding the dating rumors with actor Kim Soo Hyun. According to the news outlet, Kim never intended to release a statement in the first place.
Earlier this month, Kim Sae Ron found herself at the center of a controversy after she posted a seemingly intimate picture of herself with actor Kim Soo Hyun. The picture, shared on her Instagram stories, rapidly ignited dating rumors between the two stars, prompting a swift denial from Kim Soo Hyun’s agency, Gold Medalist. However, Kim Sae Ron remained silent on the matter.
We would like to inform you that the rumors of Kim Soo Hyun being in a relationship [with Kim Sae Ron] are unfounded. The photo that is being spread online appears to have been taken in the past when the two were both under our management. As for Kim Sae Ron’s intentions for uploading the picture, we do not know.

The actress’s silence changed when Korean media outlets started reporting on March 25 that she would come out to address the picture and the dating rumors soon. The actress then shocked netizens today when she spoke to My Daily about the controversy, revealing she has opted to remain silent.
I really thought hard to myself and I feel that it would help me to be silent. I will not be making a statement and will no longer comment.

Kim’s response received immediate backlash from netizens, who criticized the actress for “being an attention-seeker.” But, Sports Kyunghyang’s latest exclusive report suggested that she never intended to address the controversy publicly.
Industry sources close to the actress have claimed that from the onset, Kim Sae Ron was not inclined to make any specific announcements concerning the photo. Her unexpected response to a press call — stating she was “organizing her position” — was actually misconstrued as an indication of an impending statement.
It appears that her comment was made in a moment of surprise and was not indicative of her actual intentions.
As Kim Sae Ron opts to remain silent, the motivations behind her decision to share the photo with Kim Soo Hyun remain a topic of speculation.
