On the afternoon of the 7th, a lawyer for the wealthy at the law firm, the legal representative of the late Kim Sae-ron's bereaved family, issued a statement in some place in Gangnam-gu, Seoul. Kim Se-eui, CEO of YouTube 'Horoseo Research Institute' (Gase-yeon) was also present at the meeting.
"There is a voice file recorded by an acquaintance A with the consent of the deceased on January 10 in New Jersey, U.S., a month before the deceased's death," Kim Se-eui said at the meeting. "The recording contains sensitive and specific details such as dating Kim Soo-hyun, claims of damage, and mentioning the real name of the industry."
In the first recording released at the press conference, the deceased dated Su-hyun's brother since middle school. We've been dating since Minjja, and we broke up when we went to college. When I think about it now, I feel like I've been taken advantage of." It was also claimed that Kim Soo-hyun made disparaging remarks boasting of her relationships with celebrity women.
Representative Kim stressed that "(The time of sexual intercourse confessed by the deceased is the winter vacation of the second year of middle school, which could be a violation of the Child Welfare Act. It is not just a private life revelation, but a serious criminal case."
Meanwhile, the informant A, who was recording, was also disclosed that he was attacked by two gunmen in the United States on May 1. "We have been attacked with nine stab wounds to the neck, and the FBI has now launched an investigation," A said. "It may be someone's systematic attempt to shut up the case immediately after it was revealed that A was keeping sensitive testimony from the deceased," said Se-yeon.
Mr. A's spouse also came forward with the idea of informing the Korean people of the true nature of this case through a video message. The voice file of the deceased is not just a rumor, but the truth that someone is trying to bury."
In addition, the bereaved family of the deceased disclosed their real names, saying that a reporter, including entertainment reporter Lee Jin-ho, contributed to the spread of rumors about the deceased. The deceased complained about these people while he was alive, saying, `They drive me like a director,' and claimed that he even showed symptoms of hyperventilation.
Se-yeon also released a recording of the call between Lee Jin-ho and A, an acquaintance of the deceased. In the call, Lee Jin-ho drew the line "It has nothing to do with the gold medalist", but A refuted "Didn't you ask for a recording file saying you would give 1 billion won?" In addition, the Gase-yeon also raised controversy by releasing a recording of a call containing remarks that B, who was involved in lawyer Ko Sang-rok, seemed to threaten A.
On this day, Kim Se-eui stressed that `we will hold those involved, including Kim Soo-hyun, legally responsible.'
Lawyer Bu Ji-seok said, `The complaint filed today includes the Child Welfare Act and the Innocence Act, and the investigation is being distributed to the investigation department of the Seoul Metropolitan Government and is underway.'
Meanwhile, Kim Soo-hyun's side has filed a lawsuit for damages worth 12 billion won, and the legal battle between the two sides is expected to be prolonged.
