South Korean actor Kim Soo-hyun has officially filed complaints in response to recent allegations involving the late actress Kim Sae-ron.During a press conference, his legal representative, Kim Jong-bok, stated that Kim Soo-hyun and his agency have decided to take legal action against those spreading false and harmful information about him."In response to their request, our law firm filed a complaint today against the bereaved family members, an unidentified individual claiming to be [Kim Sae-ron's] aunt, and the operators of HoverLab Inc.
for defamation under the Act on Promotion of Information and Communications Network Utilization and Information Protection, etc. The complaint includes the emotional assessment report mentioned earlier by actor Kim Soo-hyun,” Kim Jong-bok announced in Korean.Kim Soo-hyun also addressed allegations about his relationship with Kim Sae-ron, firmly denying claims that they dated when she was a minor.
He stated that the supposed evidence was fabricated, including a screenshot of their messages."There are too many incorrect facts in this KakaoTalk [message] to say that the deceased wrote it. The photo that was said to be from 2016 was actually from 2019.
Also, the deceased [Kim Sae-ron] could not have been wrong about the age difference between us," he explained.To disprove claims, Kim Soo-hyun submitted KakaoTalk conversations from 2016 and 2018. One was provided by the late actress's family, while others were his chat records that he shared for analysis.
The agency conducting the analysis concluded that the person behind the 2016 and 2018 messages was not the same individual.The actor also refuted accusations that his agency, Gold Medalist, pressured Kim Sae-ron regarding her financial debts. He presented an audio recording as evidence, stating that it disproves the claims against them.
"I learned about this through this controversy, but this is the truth about the second certificate of contents. But I don't know why the CEO of the deceased's final agency is lying, saying something completely different from the call a year ago," he said.The controversy first emerged when HoverLab Inc.
, also known as Garosero Research Institute, reported that Kim Sae-ron's aunt alleged the actress had a six-year relationship with Kim Soo-hyun, beginning when she was just 15 years old. Additional accusations were made against his agency, claiming financial misconduct and mismanagement of Sae-ron's DUI case.Initially, the agency denied that Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Sae-ron were in a relationship but later admitted they had dated.
Kim Soo-hyun clarified that he made this statement to protect individuals associated with his previous projects and personal life as the controversy unfolded.Take a look back at the events surrounding the Soo-hyun-Sae-ron issue:.
