6 Agency Statements About Kim Sae Ron: Kim Soo Hyun's Dating Until She Pays For It
JAKARTA - The Gold Medalist agency released a lengthy statement about Kim Soo Hyun earlier than originally planned. Previously, they would explain next week but a new statement was released on Friday, March 14.
Their statement focused on the late Kim Sae Ron and his relationship with Kim Soo Hyun. They also denied pressuring Sae Ron to pay 700 million won by including an image as evidence.
They also made a statement representing Kim Soo Hyun after the HoverLab Inc YouTube channel. The agency considers some of the claims HoverLab made to be false and false.
Check out six statements from the Gold Medalist agency regarding issues related to Kim Sae Ron and Kim Soo Hyun:
This morning, Kim Soo Hyun showed extreme psychological symptoms and we made sure she could recover. After HoverLab's report, Kim Soo Hyun was confused because (it was) the cause of death of the late (Kim Sae Ron)," said Gold Medalist.
The agency started by revealing that there was a vehicle with cameras waiting in front of the agency office building on March 12. It continued until March 13 and the 37-year-old actor felt psychologically depressed.
Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Sae Ron have a relationship from the summer of 2019 after Kim Sae Ron became an adult, until the fall of 2020, said Gold Medalist.
It's not true that Kim Soo Hyun was dating Kim Sae Ron when she was a minor. The photo shared by Kim Sae Ron on Instagram Story on March 24, 2024 and Hoverlab's live broadcast on March 11, 2025 shows a privacy moment between the two in the winter of 2020," he said.
The agency considers the photos allegedly taken in 2016 to be untrue because they had no relationship at the time. The photo in question is a photo when Kim Soo Hyun kissed Kim Sae Ron.
The letters Kim Soo Hyun sent to Kim Sae Ron during his military duties were some of the letters sent to some close friends. It can be seen from the contents, Kim Soo Hyun adapts to military life and writes his daily life to his friends, "the agency said.
The nickname 'Saero-nero' used by Kim Sae Ron since 2016 is considered an ordinary call and not a sweet call between the two.
There has been a lot of criticism to Kim Soo Hyun about their relationship. While the relationship between two adults is a personal matter, it's natural for Kim Soo Hyun's life, loved by many people, becomes a public evaluation, and if it creates criticism, it should be taken seriously," the agency said again.
"Gold Medalist worked with Kim Sae Ron to complete penalties related to acting and compensation activities due to drunk driving incidents. The total penalty paid reached 1.01 trillion won. During the process, we tried to reduce Kim Sae Ron's burden," said Gold Medalist.
Kim Sae Ron, who tried to pay him, managed to reduce the penalty fee to 700 million won remaining. The fee includes selling Kim Sae Ron's car and according to the late's request. The agency refused when it was said to have confiscated Sae Ron's car that was damaged.
They revealed the penalty costs needed for two things, namely the Keds shoe brand of 390 million won and the Netflix series, the Bloodhounds of 700 million won and the damage to public facilities of 24 million won.
"The results of our audit on April 1, 2024 confirmed that we processed all claims as expenses that could not be collected. Even though we tried, it was difficult for Kim Sae Ron to pay the penalty, so we realistically wrote the rest and stated that Kim Sae Ron could not pay his debts," explained the agency.
The reason they provide evidence that the figure is because they cannot pay it directly or the executive will question the figure in the company's expenses.
Kim Sae Ron's debt issue is a matter for Gold Medalist and Kim Sae Ron. Kim Soo Hyun's claim to give money to Sae Ron or ask her to come back is not true. Kim Soo Hyun never lent or asked to come back," the agency said.
The agency made a claim Kim Sae Ron didn't know about her money, so she asked Kim Soo Hyun, but Soo Hyun didn't know anything about her ex-girlfriend's debt. Furthermore, the agency stated that their business was finished on March 26, 2024.
"The photos of the two individuals released by HoverLab are real, but that doesn't mean HoverLab's claim is 'true' by throwing various evidences that eliminate context, the truth is changed and affected various parties," the agency said.
"As mentioned, we believe that public perceptions and criticism of Kim Soo Hyun must be accepted because he is a public figure but that does not mean he accepts personal attacks and false information," concluded the agency.
Gold Medalist ended the statement by questioning the consensus between the two parties whose relationship was exposed to the public and had a psychological impact on both of them. Kim Sae Ron passed away on February 16 and was buried in Gyeonggi, South Korea.
