Kim Sae-ron Rumored to Have Dated Famous Idol in 2018



It was rumored that the late actor Kim Sae-ron dated a famous idol member in 2018 when he was a high school senior.

Money Today reported on the 21st that Kim Sae-ron dated a famous idol member A, who was older, around 2018. According to reports, Kim Sae-ron and A briefly separated in early 2019 and reunited in early and mid-2022. The media said that when Kim Sae-ron was suffering from a drunk driving accident, A lent a large amount of money.

Kim Sae-ron did not hide his relationship with A around him. The two broke up in early 2023, but they reportedly kept in touch until last year. Some said that Kim Sae-ron's former lovers were former famous idols of seven, but this was found to be different from the truth.

Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Sae-ron are suspected of dating since they were minors in March. Kim Sae-ron's bereaved family claimed on the YouTube channel Garosero Research Institute that Kim Soo-hyun was in a relationship with Kim Sae-ron, who was 15 years old, for six years from 2016.

However, Kim Soo-hyun's side claimed that Kim Sae-ron dated from 2019 to 2020 after he became an adult, and actively refuted the bereaved family's claim through a press conference of tears.

As a result, the two sides have continued legal battles. Kim Soo-hyun's side sued Kim Se-eui and others for defamation and stalking, and Kim Sae-ron's bereaved family for defamation. It also filed a civil lawsuit worth 12 billion won.




In response, Kim Sae-ron's bereaved family held a press conference on the 7th and filed a complaint against Kim Soo-hyun on charges of violating the Child Welfare Act and innocent.
