Fans Reveal Five Major Contradictions in the Alleged Relationship Timeline of Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Sae Ron, Questioning the Actor’s Agency Statement Amid Growing Controversy
Kim Soo Hyun faces intense scrutiny as online users challenge the timeline of his alleged relationship with Kim Sae Ron. This follows his agency, GOLDMEDALIST’s, attempt to clarify the situation, leading to more debate. Netizens have pointed out several discrepancies between the agency’s statements and evidence found online.
The controversy started when the YouTube channel Garosero shared messages allegedly from Kim Sae Ron. These messages suggested she had been in a relationship with Kim Soo Hyun from November 2015 to July 2021. This directly contradicts GOLDMEDALIST’s statement that their relationship began in the summer of 2019 and ended in the fall of 2020, after Kim Sae Ron reached legal adulthood. Garosero also claimed a photo shared by Kim Sae Ron was taken in 2016, not after 2019 as the agency said.
Clothing and Mole Discrepancies
One major point of contention involves a shirt Kim Sae Ron wore in a photo. GOLDMEDALIST stated the shirt was from a June 2019 collection, proving the photo could not be from 2016. However, online users found evidence that the same shirt was available as early as September 2014, casting doubt on the agency’s claim.
Knet investigates and refutes: The shirt Kim Sae-ron wore in the photo 'Kim Soo Hyun kissing her cheek' was released in September 2014 based on online searches. The photo filter in the "cheek to cheek" selfie was also the most popular filter in 2016~2018… #KimSooHuynpic.twitter.com/L7zigU562Y
Another point of debate is a mole above Kim Soo Hyun’s left eyebrow. Fans noted the mole was visible early in his career, disappeared after a cosmetic procedure, reappeared in 2017, and was allegedly permanently removed during his military service from October 2017 to July 2019. If the mole was gone before 2019, it should not appear in photos GOLDMEDALIST claims were taken between 2019 and 2020. This discrepancy raises questions about the timeline.
the mole in saeron's photo disappeared after soo hyun left the military. Pls sir, be serious. You're taking advantage of saeron's death to continue lying 🙄 pic.twitter.com/9oXVpvblYC
Netizens also examined photos shared by Garosero. GOLDMEDALIST claimed these photos were taken on Christmas Eve 2019, based on metadata. However, a Chinese netizen pointed out that the glasses Kim Soo Hyun wore in one photo were a gift from a fan in 2015. The glasses had a distinctive leopard-print pattern inside the frame. If this is true, the photo was taken years earlier than the agency stated.
Public frustration grows as many accuse GOLDMEDALIST of changing its story. The agency initially denied any romantic involvement, then admitted to a relationship with a different timeline. Some believe the agency is trying to discredit Kim Sae Ron and protect Kim Soo Hyun’s reputation.
With these conflicting stories and ongoing scrutiny, the controversy surrounding Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Sae Ron remains unresolved.
