March 31, 2025 - Seoul, South Korea - The renowned actor Kim Soo-hyun is at the center of a stormy controversy as Gaseyeon, closely linked to the late Kim Sae-ron, has reignited explosive claims about their alleged romantic involvement. Gaseyeon has threatened to unveil incriminating videos that he claims will paint a damaging picture of the actor's past. This situation unfolds amidst a substantial lawsuit where Kim is facing demands for 12 billion won.

Denial of Allegations

In a bold statement, Kim Soo-hyun vehemently denied accusations that he dated Kim Sae-ron when she was a minor and dismissed claims that he was coerced into handling debts. Gaseyeon's alarming assertions include promises to reveal footage documenting their purported relationship, including what he described as a “soju date” from 2018 and even intimate video of Kim Sae-ron asleep.

Bereaved Family's Stance

Adding further intrigue, Gaseyeon claimed that the bereaved family had anticipated a public apology from Kim Soo-hyun prior to their press conference. "They asked to stop any further video releases last night,” he stated. "However, I was prepared for either outcome." His message to the star was direct: “I challenge Kim Soo-hyun to file his complaint right away. If he does not, it shows he isn’t sincere.”

Press Conference and Legal Action

During a recent press conference at the Stanford Hotel in Seoul, Kim Soo-hyun and his lawyer, Kim Jong-bok from LK Partners, addressed the escalating situation. Kim Soo-hyun stood firm in his denial of all allegations, asserting that they are entirely baseless. In defense of his position, he revealed that they had submitted conversations from KakaoTalk dating back to 2016, 2018, and this year for a forensic analysis. The findings indicated that the individuals in those past conversations were not the same as currently claimed.

Defamation Lawsuit

In a decisive move, Lawyer Kim Jong-bok announced that legal action had formally begun against both Gaseyeon and the bereaved family for defamation under South Korean laws governing information and communication. They are seeking damages in the amount of 12 billion won from the Seoul Central District Court.

Public Image at Stake

This unfolding saga not only threatens Kim Soo-hyun's pristine public image but raises questions about the ethics of releasing potentially compromising material tied to a late public figure. Fans and the media alike are on high alert as the legal battle promises to reveal more shocking details in the days to come! Will Kim Soo-hyun be able to clear his name, or will Gaseyeon’s allegations turn this event into a scandal that reshapes the landscape of South Korean entertainment? Stay tuned!
