Actor Kim Soo Hyun held an emergency press conference and shed tears regarding the various suspicions surrounding him and the late Kim Sae Ron.

On the 31st, Kim Soo Hyun held an emergency press conference and appeared in person, 20 days after the controversy broke out. The press conference, held at the Stanford Hotel in Mapo-gu, Seoul, was crowded with reporters.

He began by saying, “I‘m sorry. I feel sorry that the deceased is not resting in peace. I consider myself a coward. I think I was only concerned about protecting what I had.”

Kim Soo Hyun maintained his original position that “we did not date” and explained that their one-year relationship ended when Kim Sae Ron became an adult, which is what the public is most curious about. Next, regarding Kim Sae-ron’s tragic choice, he stated, “It‘s not that the deceased made a tragic choice because our agency pressured her with her debt due to my ignorance. Except for the fact that we are both actors, the deceased and I were just like any other ordinary lovers. We met with good feelings for each other, and as time passed, we broke up.”

In particular, Kim Soo-hyun refuted the claims by the YouTuber, who is conveying his position on behalf of the bereaved family, that he is labeling himself a “pedophile” and “grooming minors” by revealing KakaoTalk messages and conversations.

Kim Soo-hyun stated, “I will happily accept the choice I made. However, that doesn’t mean that everything that isn‘t true is true. “Just as I went through the verification process, I hope that the bereaved family will now submit the materials they have disclosed to the investigative authorities and participate in the verification process,” he added.

The deceased did not leave a word, and as the various claims of the bereaved continue, could Kim Soo-hyun’s tearful confession of feelings be the key to revealing the truth of this situation?

Meanwhile, YouTube channel Garosero Research Institute claimed on the 10th that Kim Sae-ron and Kim Soo-hyun were lovers in the past and that Kim Soo-hyun was behind the death. Since then, the two have not backed down from their claims, presenting evidence that they were lovers. In addition, entertainment YouTuber Lee Jin-ho reported that Kim Sae-ron had gotten married in New York, continuing the controversy surrounding Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Sae-ron.

Meanwhile, Kim Sae-ron’s bereaved family sued the entertainment YouTuber and announced legal action against Kim Soo-hyun. Kim Soo-hyun has also continued the battle by filing lawsuits against Garosero Research Institute and Kim Sae-ron’s bereaved family.
