[OSEN] The family of the late actor Kim Sae-ron will hold a press conference and appear before the public.
Today (27th) at 1:30 p.m., a press conference for the family of Kim Sae-ron will be held at Space Share Gangnam Station Center in Seocho-gu, Seoul. According to lawyer Bujiseok of Law Firm Buyou, the family's legal representative, they plan to reveal evidence that Kim Soo-hyun was in a relationship with Kim Sae-ron since her minor years and announce their legal response plan.
Kim Sae-ron passed away on Feb. 16. Born in 2000, the sudden news was shocking as Kim Sae-ron had been active as a magazine model since the year after her birth.
However, among the circumstances, actor Kim Soo-hyun and his current agency Gold Medalist were identified as the causes of Kim Sae-ron's tragic fate. It is claimed that Kim Soo-hyun dated the deceased for six years since her childhood, while Gold Medalist pressured Kim Sae-ron with a claim for damages of 700 million won due to her drunk driving, and that Kim Soo-hyun neglected this matter.
The family of Kim Sae-ron specifically raised suspicions about Kim Soo-hyun through the YouTube channel "Garosero Research Institute." They also urged that Kim Soo-hyun acknowledge the relationship he had with the late Kim Sae-ron for six years since her minor years and offer an official apology, that Gold Medalist officially apologize for their statement that Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Sae-ron have not been in a relationship over the last three years, that they recognize Kim Sae-ron's contributions as a founding member of Gold Medalist and issue a formal apology regarding this, and that they acknowledge the claim for 700 million won and formally apologize.
However, the Gold Medalist side denied all suspicions surrounding Kim Soo-hyun. They described it as "defamation through false facts." Although they did not previously acknowledge that Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Sae-ron were romantically involved, they retracted that statement, explaining that "by the time the dating rumors emerged, it had already been four years since they had broken up, and both were finding it difficult to acknowledge it as celebrities."
Additionally, they emphasized that both Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Sae-ron were adults and had a relationship from the summer of 2019 until the autumn of 2020. Regarding the claim of 700 million won, they asserted that the procedures taken by the agency were merely part of the process of writing off penalties incurred due to Kim Sae-ron's drunk driving, and that there was no actual claim for payment.
In light of the sharp differences in positions, the family of Kim Sae-ron further disclosed additional past couple photos of Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Sae-ron through a live broadcast on "Gaseyeon." In response, the Gold Medalist side rebuffed this, citing the sale year of the outfits in the photos, claiming that Kim Soo-hyun had only dated Kim Sae-ron, who was not a minor, for about a year.
Furthermore, suspicions surrounding the past of Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Sae-ron have evolved into a truth battle involving people close to them. Gold Medalist emphasized the "differences in thoughts" with the family, while the family filed a lawsuit against YouTuber A, who has continued to provide content about Kim Sae-ron.
Meanwhile, Kim Sae-ron's past actions have been disclosed late. There are claims that the deceased married a man in New York just before her death, as well as the existence of another ex-boyfriend, with conflicting assertions that these individuals, including the "New York man" and Kim Soo-hyun, had the most significant impact on Kim Sae-ron's tragic fate.
Ultimately, the family emphasized that they will conduct digital forensics on Kim Sae-ron's mobile phone to prove Kim Soo-hyun's allegations of dating a minor. As such, it is expected that the family of Kim Sae-ron will hold a press conference to directly disclose related suspicions.
