On the 16th, the gold medalist expressed his deepest condolences upon hearing the unfortunate news of Kim Sae-ron. I pray for the repose of the deceased,' he said in an official statement.
The gold medalist's contract was terminated before Kim Sae-ron went into self-study after causing a stir for drunk driving in May 2022.
According to the police, Kim Sae-ron was found collapsed in cardiac arrest at his home in Seongdong-gu, Seoul, this afternoon and was taken to a hospital, but died.
It has been confirmed that a friend who was originally supposed to meet with Kim Sae-ron found him and reported him. The cause of death has not yet been determined.
A police official said "We are investigating the exact circumstances of the death." "No criminal charges, such as signs of external invasion, have been found, but we are investigating the circumstances of death, etc." he said.
Meanwhile, Kim Sae-ron crashed into street trees and transformers while driving drunk in 2022, causing severe damage around the accident site, including damage to the transformer and damage to the power outage at a shopping mall. Kim Sae-ron, who was later handed over to trial on charges of violating the Road Traffic Act (Drunk Driving), was fined 20 million won. In April last year, he tried to resume his acting activities on the stage of the play, but suddenly got off and his return was canceled due to health reasons.
In addition, Kim Sae-ron dropped out of the SBS drama 'Trolley', which was scheduled to appear, and was edited in the Netflix drama 'Hunt Dogs'.
Last year, I finished filming the movie 'Guitar Man' and was waiting for its release.
