Kim Soo Hyun’s Agency Faces Heavy Backlash from Netizens for Allegedly Attempting to Extort Millions from Kim Sae Ron

Kim Soo Hyun’s agency, Gold Medalist, is under heavy criticism after allegations surfaced that they attempted to extort millions from late actress Kim Sae Ron. The claims, made by Kim Sae Ron’s aunt, paint a picture of financial manipulation and raise serious questions about the agency’s conduct.

Shocking Financial Demands

According to Kim Sae Ron’s aunt, Gold Medalist, a company co-founded by Kim Soo Hyun, initially demanded an exorbitant penalty fee of ₩20.0 billion KRW (approximately $13.7 million USD). The agency stated they would handle all settlement processes. However, the sheer size of the demand raised immediate red flags.

When Kim Sae Ron’s aunt sought clarification on the calculations, she was reportedly dismissed. The agency later reduced the figure to ₩700 million KRW (about $480,000 USD), paying it on Kim Sae Ron’s behalf with the understanding that she would not need to repay it. However, in 2024, they issued a legal notice demanding the money back.

Netizen Outrage and Reactions

The allegations have ignited a firestorm of criticism from netizens. Reactions found on online forums such as theqoo include:

“How did they even come up with ₩20.0 billion KRW (about $13.7 million USD) in calculations?”

“Just how much did they belittle her as a young kid? If today and yesterday’s interviews are all true… Then he ought to be punished severely.”

“₩20.0 billion KRW (about $13.7 million USD)? Even ₩700 million KRW (about $480,000 USD) is suspicious.”

“Even if she killed someone, it wouldn’t even amount to ₩20.0 billion KRW (about $13.7 million USD).”

Netizens express outrage at what they perceive as gross overreach, finding both the initial and revised figures as forms of extortion. People mention that, considering Kim Sae Ron’s DUI incident which damaged property, but did not physically harm anyone, these penalty fees are extreme. Also Previous allegations that Kim Sae Ron and Kim Soo Hyun dated while she was a minor is also mentioned.

Company Scrutiny

The agency’s actions have placed them under intense scrutiny. The vast discrepancy between the initial and final demands has led to accusations of manipulation and abuse of power. The death of Kim Sae Ron after all of these allegations further intensify the already critical situation.
