Following Dispatch confirming previous reports in regards to Kim Soo Hyun allegedly grooming and mistreating Kim Sae Ron, things have already gotten significantly worse within the day, and continue to only look worse as the situation develops*.
*Note: I apologize for not covering anything else, but this is a huge and important story for multiple reasons, and it’s literally getting updated hourly … even this is “late”.
Okay, so basically Garo Sero Institute aired more from Kim Sae Ron’s aunt, in which she says Kim Soo Hyun approached Kim Sae Ron first and they dated against the family’s wishes.
One day, before he went to the military, he kept contacting her. He also kept sending her photos of himself in the military. That’s when we thought something was weird and found out. We were very against it.
Yes she told us that. Of course, she wouldn’t have directly told her mom at first that she was dating someone. Because she kept receiving personal photos from him that we found out and tried to stop her. Sae Ron said she told him not to fool around with a young kid like her. What do you think he would’ve said to her to make her date him? He said things like he sincerely valued her, he was serious about her, things like that. He was totally serious when he said that to her. Of course she knew he was way older. She told him not to mess around with her, not to joke. We know about that because Sae Ron told us later on. But she said he was serious about it. Later on, when he made his company, he promised to take care of her because he loved her. He talked about it as if he would take responsibility for her. That’s why she left YG Entertainment when her contract was ending. Normally people would shop around for agencies, but she went there because they were dating.
She also says Kim Soo Hyun asked to marry her (when she was an adult).
In relation to the part about pictures from the military, there’s pictures provided and an alleged love letter he wrote to her.
June 9, 2018, Sae-ron.
I’m just a private trying to write some random words, lost in the fog of love. Today, I went karaoke in Gang-seong and completely lost my voice singing some of Shin Seung-hoon’s songs. I can’t define how time passes…
My skin got sunburned, so now it looks like this. Whatever I write, it all sounds like a lie. But this feeling… Wow, it’s the feeling of love. Sae-ron SaeroNero (refers to Kim Sae-ron’s love nickname), I love you. You’re so cute.
Sae-ron SaeroNero, I got a postcard, so I’m writing to you… I had some drinks today, so I’m in a good mood. And now we’ve reached the end of the letter…
I love you, Sae-ron – from Private Kim Soo Hyun, far away.
He enlisted in October 2017 and the photos were sent within the year, so Kim Sae Ron was 17 or 18 at most.
The family also provided a postcard that he sent to her from Paris in 2019.
Saero-Nero (nickname), I had a drink in Paris. There’s no souvenirs today, so I bought a postcard and took hold of a pen, becoming a person who nags. I love you, Saero-Nero. You make me so proud Saero-Nero, you’re so amazing. I’ll be sorry to you every day.

Note the nickname he uses, as she did the same way back in 2016.

Outlet The Fact also contacted Kim Sae Ron’s aunt to clarify everything. She confirmed that Kim Sae Ron paid off the DUI damages and compensation herself, but the 700 million won was due to the Bloodhounds termination fee, and that Kim Sae Ron said Kim Soo Hyun personally lent her the money. However, as mentioned, she later got a legal notice from lawyers threatening legal action if not repaid.
She also confirmed that they had a relationship before she signed with GOLD MEDALIST in 2020 and that her parents opposed the relationship due to the age gap (her mother recent spoke up as well, saying she wants to clear her daughter’s name. She expressed disappointment that the agency said they will take care of her in response to opposition and then abandoned her when she needed them. The aunt also says they will take action against a cyberwrecker, which is likely Lee Jin Ho as her father mentioned before.
Furthermore, the family says the denial of all this by Kim Soo Hyun is defamation, and they will pursue legal action.

After basically hoping this would all go away, GOLD MEDALIST has responded again, saying they will have a statement next week with refuting evidence.
We would like to address the recent content regarding Kim Soo Hyun that was broadcasted on YouTube channel HoverLab Inc.
GOLDMEDALIST will clarify the facts and respond to the baseless rumors by presenting a clear and substantiated position next week.
We sincerely apologize for causing prolonged fatigue and ask for your understanding as we aim to prevent further ongoing reports.
Their problem at the moment is it’s not just the cyberwrecker channel doing this anymore, and I’m not sure what they could even say that would help him other than proving all of this evidence is fabricated.
Like this is a picture circulating at the moment of when Kim Sae Ron and Kim Soo Hyun first met, and I can’t see how one wouldn’t see this as terrible.
