Family’s Press Conference: Seeking an End to Speculation

In a press conference held in Seocho-gu, Seoul, representatives for the late actress Kim Sae-ron revealed what they claim are KakaoTalk messages exchanged between Kim Sae-ron and actor kim Soo-hyun dating back to 2016.

Details of the Alleged KakaoTalk Exchange

The released excerpts from the alleged KakaoTalk conversation include suggestive exchanges. According to the released messages, Kim Soo-hyun purportedly sent a photo of a minor kim Sae-ron with a message expressing concern, asking, Is it bad? Other messages include Kim Soo-hyun allegedly asking, when can I sleep with you? to which Kim Sae-ron purportedly responded, I’ll allow it. The family’s lawyer commented on this exchange, stating, I want to ask for more than sleeping.

Legal Actions and Family Distress

The family’s legal team also addressed the sending of “proof” by Kim Soo-hyun’s agency, Gold Medalist, to kim Sae-ron.

The lawyer emphasized the severe emotional and psychological distress the family is experiencing due to the relentless invasion of Kim Sae-ron’s privacy.

The reason for the press conference is that the reason is to stop criticizing the bereaved family.

Focus on legal recourse Against Online Harassment
