A disturbing video, reportedly sent by actor Kim Soo-hyun during his relationship with Kim Sae-ron, has surfaced.
On March 27, the YouTube channel Garo Sero Institute shared a video titled “[Exclusive] Pedophilic Pervert Kim Soo-hyun (Video Released).”
Claims from Kim Se-ui, Gaseyeon’s head, suggest that Kim Soo-hyun filmed the video in Paris and sent it to Kim Sae-ron.
In the footage, Kim Soo-hyun can be seen recording a female mannequin in underwear, making comments about its appearance. When a friend mentions similar displays in Korea, he denies the similarities. The friend then points out the mannequin’s nipples, leading Kim Soo-hyun to zoom in. As bystanders react, he casually remarks, “A father and daughter looked at us in shock. I wasn’t embarrassed at all,” before departing.
The video is said to be from 2019 when Kim Soo-hyun sent a postcard to Kim Sae-ron from Paris. Kim Se-ui mentions, “This is just the least explicit content. We are refraining from releasing more out of respect for Kim Sae-ron’s grieving family.”
On the same day, Bu Ji-seok, the attorney for Kim Sae-ron’s family, disclosed KakaoTalk messages between Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Sae-ron, indicating a relationship beyond friendship. It was noted that Kim Sae-ron was 17 years old (international age: 16) at the time.
Kim Sae-ron was discovered deceased at her residence in Seoul on February 16 at the age of 25. Her family claimed on March 10 that she and Kim Soo-hyun had been in a relationship since November 2015, when she was 15, until July 2021. However, Kim Soo-hyun’s camp argued that they only dated from the summer of 2019, when she was of legal age, until the fall of 2020. He has chosen to remain silent since.
