Actor Kim Soo-hyun finally opens his mouth. It has been 20 days since allegations of dating the late Kim Sae-ron, who was a minor, were raised.

Kim Soo-hyun's agency gold medalist said in an official statement on the 30th that `Kim Soo-hyun will hold a press conference at the Stanford Hotel in Mapo-gu, Seoul at 4:30 p.m. on the 31st.'

The agency said "We apologize for causing concern to many people due to the recent controversy"We have prepared a meeting to explain this directly " he said.




Kim Soo-hyun and his legal representative, law firm (LKB&Partners), will attend the press conference to announce their official position.

However, it is known that there will be no separate question-and-answer session, and only Kim Soo-hyun's position will be expressed.

Meanwhile, Kim has remained silent since the controversy without making an official statement. As a result, attention is focused on what position he will present at the press conference.




Earlier on the 10th, Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Sae-ron claimed that they had been dating for about six years since 2016 on the YouTube channel 'Garosero Research Institute' (hereinafter 'Garoseyeon').

Kim Soo-hyun was 28 years old at the time and Kim Sae-ron was 16, which soon became a controversy over underage dating.

According to the bereaved family, Kim had signed an exclusive contract with a gold medalist established by Kim at the recommendation of Kim in 2020. However, Kim's exclusive contract with the gold medalist was terminated when he caused a drunk driving accident in 2022. In the process of repaying 700 million won to a gold medalist in the process of dealing with the accident, Kim Sae-ron complained of enormous psychological pressure. The bereaved family said at the time that Kim Sae-ron asked his ex-lover Kim Soo-hyun "I'm not saying I won't pay you back, but if I ask for 700 million won right away, I really can't do it. It's not that I don't do it, but I can't do it. Do I have to go to the lawsuit. Please save me. Do me a favor. Kim Soo-hyun also texted, saying, "Give me time." However, Kim Soo-hyun claimed that she did not respond silently.




In this regard, Kim Soo-hyun said, "Kim Soo-hyun dated from the summer of 2019 to the fall of 2020, after Kim Sae-ron became an adult. It is not true that Kim Soo-hyun dated Kim Sae-ron when she was a minor, but the Se-yeon released a message shared between Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Sae-ron day after day.
