Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Sae Ron‘s controversial relationship has taken a darker turn. The late actress’s family held a press conference on May 7 in Seoul, sharing an explosive audio recording. The clip allegedly features Kim Sae Ron admitting to a relationship with Kim Soo Hyun when she was in 8th grade.
The recording was obtained by Garo Sero Institute, a YouTube channel that has been at the center of this scandal. The family’s lawyer, Bu Ji Seok, played the audio publicly. In it, Kim Sae Ron reportedly discusses intimate details about her past with Kim Soo Hyun.
“She also revealed that he sent her photos of him sleeping with an idol.”
The press conference was called after the informant who provided the recording was violently attacked in New Jersey, USA. The assault happened on May 1, leaving the informant severely injured. The FBI is now investigating the case.
Garo Sero released a statement with disturbing details.
“The informant was stabbed nine times in the neck. A large portion of the nerves in their hand were torn. They will be assessed as disabled.”
The attackers were identified as a Korean and a Chinese national. They reportedly entered the US five days before the assault. Garo Sero claims this was a planned murder attempt to silence the informant.
The audio recording was made a month before Kim Sae Ron’s death in February 2025. It allegedly contains 90 minutes of conversations exposing people who mistreated her, including Kim Soo Hyun, YouTubers, and reporters.
Kim Sae Ron’s family insists the recording was made with her consent. They believe the attack on the informant proves how dangerous the situation has become. The family is pushing for a full investigation.
Kim Soo Hyun has previously denied dating Kim Sae Ron when she was underage. His agency, Gold Medalist, filed a $12 billion lawsuit against Garo Sero and Kim Sae Ron’s family for spreading what they call false claims.
The scandal has divided public opinion. Some believe Kim Soo Hyun is being unfairly targeted. Others argue the new evidence raises serious questions.
“This was not just an attack. It was an attempted murder to cover up the truth.” – Garo Sero
The FBI’s involvement adds another layer to this case. If the attackers are linked to anyone in Korea, it could lead to an international legal battle.
Kim Sae Ron’s family is demanding justice. They want authorities to examine all evidence, including the audio recordings and the attack on the informant.
This case continues to unfold, with more developments expected soon.
