Late actress Kim Sae Ron’s aunt has recently alleged that the K-drama star was involved with Kim Soo Hyun for six years. The duo apparently started dating when she was sixteen years old. The shocking allegations have prompted viewers to know about Kim Soo Hyun’s dating history. Let’s look at Gold Medalist’s Kim Soo Hyun’s claims versus what the late actress’ family alleged.
Kim Soo Hyun’s Dating History with Kim Sae Ron Explored
In a controversial YouTube video by Garosero Research Institute, a woman claiming to be Kim Sae Ron‘s aunt made several startling allegations:
- Kim Soo Hyun allegedly began dating Kim Sae Ron when he was 27 and she was only sixteen
- Their relationship reportedly lasted six years
- In 2019, Kim Sae Ron left YG Entertainment to join GOLD MEDALIST, Kim Soo Hyun’s newly established agency
- The aunt claims Kim Sae Ron provided free labor to help establish the company, including directing talent and giving acting lessons
Kim Sae Ron’s DUI Incident That Changed The Relationship
According to the aunt, the communication ended following Kim Sae Ron’s 2022 drunk driving incident. GOLD MEDALIST reportedly paid ₩700 million KRW (approximately $483,000 USD) in damages—with the understanding this wasn’t a loan.
The story takes a darker turn in 2024, when Kim Sae Ron allegedly received a demand to repay the money. The aunt claims the actress tried desperately to contact Kim Soo Hyun but was unsuccessful—even when calling from her cousin’s phone.
Adding to the intrigue, the aunt alleges Korean reporters began calling the cousin’s number seeking Kim Sae Ron. Feeling betrayed and believing Kim Soo Hyun had leaked the number, Kim Sae Ron posted a photo of herself with the actor on Instagram during the airing of “Queen of Tears,” apparently hoping to provoke a response.
