The late actor Kim Sae-ron's bereaved family claimed again that he dated actor Kim Soo-hyun when he was a minor.

On the 26th, Kim Sae-ron's mother said, `After much consideration, I take courage.' The investigative agency recommended that each party refrain from contacting the media, and we accepted the investigative agency's recommendation. Recently, however, lawyer Ko Sang-rok, who is Kim Soo-hyun's legal representative, has been inciting public opinion through false claims by posting continuous posts on his YouTube channel" he said.

Kim Soo-hyun then put on a frame saying that all of our evidence has been fabricated so far, claiming that `Kim Sae-ron never dated Kim Soo-hyun when he was a minor.'"Who is right, such as whether the evidence was manipulated, will soon be revealed as a result of the investigation by the investigative agency."

In addition, Kim Sae-ron's mother released a memo and messenger conversation along with a transcript of an acquaintance. First of all, regarding the evidence of the memo believed to have been left by Kim Soo-hyun during his military service, can't you just tell me that you want to spend the rest of your time with me (Kim Soo-hyun joined the army on October 23, 2017, and the memo above was written about 25 days before he joined the army)?', 'It's not just because you're in the army', 'We're having a hard time. There's a lot to cross The first thing I see is me. If you said that because you really wanted to meet me again, I can wait for you nowYou can just keep liking it rather than looking at it.'etc." "This is an expression that can only be done between lovers," he said, stressing that "it is easy to see that Kim Sae-ron and Kim Soo-hyun were already in a relationship before writing the memo on September 28, 2017."

He also mentioned a letter written by the deceased in March last year after he received a certificate of the penalty for drunk driving from his former agency, the Gold Medalist. Kim Sae-ron's mother wrote a letter written by Kim Sae-ron, saying, "'We met for about five to six years. The fact that he dated Kim Soo-hyun for a considerable period of time since he was a minor is confirmed just by the fact that it is his first and last love.

However, he said he did not date the deceased when he was a minor.
