The controversy began following Kim Sae Ron’s sudden passing last month when claims surfaced that she and Kim Soo Hyun were in a relationship while she was still a minor. His agency, Gold Medalist, denied these accusations, later stating that their relationship only began after she became an adult.
However, the late actress’s family recently held a press conference, releasing alleged KakaoTalk messages and photos of the two together. The contents of these messages — some of which contained explicit language — have intensified public criticism. Additional claims have also surfaced regarding Kim Soo Hyun’s past work, including allegations that he pressured the late Sulli into filming a nude bed scene during the production of Real.
Kim Sae Ron’s family is now demanding a sincere apology, but Kim Soo Hyun and his agency have remained silent since the latest evidence was made public. As pressure mounts, all eyes are on the actor to see how he will respond.
