reported that on the afternoon of March 31, actor Kim Soo Hyun held a press conference at a hotel in Sangam-dong, Mapo, Seoul, to respond to allegations that he dated the late actress Kim Sae Ron when she was a minor. The event took place at 4:30 pm (local time) and did not include a question-and-answer session with the press.
Kim Soo Hyun once again confirmed that he only dated Kim Sae Ron for about a year since 2019. He said that Kim Sae Ron’s family created KakaoTalk messages from 2016 and 2018, emphasizing that the person in the chats with the late actress was not him. This was verified by a scientific analysis agency.

Attorney Kim Jong Bok from LKB & Partners, Kim Soo Hyun’s legal representative, said, “There is no Q&A today, so I will answer the basic questions.” He revealed that Kim Soo Hyun and Gold Medalist have filed both criminal and civil lawsuits to clarify the truth.
“We have sued Kim Sae Ron’s family, a person claiming to be the actress’s aunt, and the operator of the Garosero channel for defamation in violation of the Information Protection Act. The lawsuit is asking for 12 billion won ($
8.1 million
) in compensation, along with evidence from Kim Soo Hyun’s explanation,” he added.
The lawyer explained his refusal to answer the press: “The case is now under legal investigation and we need to wait for the court’s decision.”
At the press conference, Kim Soo Hyun explained the reason for his silence for 3 weeks before speaking up. The actor said: “I kept silent for 3 weeks because I was afraid. I was afraid of losing what I had, afraid of hurting others. I used to think that if I told the whole truth from the beginning, how would my fans, colleagues and company – the people who had placed their trust in me – suffer.” After that, the Moon Embracing the Sun actor burst into tears and added: “Every time my private life was exposed, I told myself that I would end this nightmare myself. I always hesitated, worried that my decision would have serious consequences for the people around me.”
Regarding his denial of dating Kim Sae Ron when the actress posted a photo on her personal page in early 2024, Kim Soo Hyun explained that he was afraid that the incident would affect his work as an actor, the film crew, his colleagues, the staff in the crew, the investment company, and his family.
