It has been over a year since South Korean actress Kim Sae-ron passed away, yet the storm has not ceased, and the latest developments have once again shocked the public! On the 17th, Korean media reported that a family member of Kim Sae-ron had even attempted suicide, ultimately making them unable to attend the screening of her final work.
The group viewing event for the film "Every Day We Say Goodbye," originally scheduled for the 14th, was supposed to mark the first public appearance of Kim Sae-ron's family. Unexpectedly, they were absent at the last minute. After the reason was revealed, many people felt heavy-hearted. Korean media reported that a member of Kim Sae-ron’s family attempted suicide at their residence a few days before the event, and their current condition is concerning. A friend close to the family even came forward to reveal that the family's wish is actually very simple: "They just hope Kim Soo-hyun would step forward to admit and apologize." But things did not proceed in that direction.
This friend accused that not only did Kim Soo-hyun’s side deny the allegations, but they also accused the family of spreading false information, placing tremendous pressure once again on a family already in pain. "Two years ago when the relationship was denied, even her very existence was denied; now, she is regarded as the perpetrator." The friend spoke emotionally, expressing injustice for the family.
In fact, the core controversy of this incident still revolves around "whether there was an underage relationship." The family claims the two had been together for five years since Kim Sae-ron was 15, while Kim Soo-hyun’s side insists the relationship began only after she became an adult. Both sides are not only accusing each other but have even entered into a legal battle. Amid divided public opinion, Kim Sae-ron’s family have also become targets of online abuse, which led the friend to appeal: "What needs to stop most right now is the verbal abuse against the family."#
