The controversy over Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Saerong’s minor dating has become awkward by that day. On March 14, the gold medalist at the agency of the “Queen of Tears” actor issued a lengthy statement defending Kim Soo Hyun from public criticism, providing evidence that she dated Kim Saelong from the summer of 2019 until the fall of 2020 when the late actress was a legally adult.
Photos of the virus circulating on social media show Kim Soo Hyun sharing an intimate moment with SAE-RON. It was widely said that the photo was taken in 2016 when Sae-Ron was a minor. However, the gold medalist explained: “Kim Su Hyun and Kim Sae Ron have been in a relationship since the summer of 2019 after Kim Sae Ron became legal adults until fall 2020. The photos shared by Kim Sae Ron on Instagram Stories on March 24, 2024, and the photos on display on Hoverlab’s broadcast on March 11, 2025 show the two private moments during their winter 2020 relationship.”
They continued. “The outfit worn by Kim Sae Ron in these photos was released by the brand in June 2019 and made Hoverlab’s claim that the photo was taken in 2016, when Kim Sae Ron was a minor player.”
Korean netizens have found contradictions in the clarification of gold medalists, claiming that the outfit worn by SAE-RON was released by the brand in 2014 rather than 2019.
The OP said these photos might be taken in 2014 when the bastard still had a mole on his forehead (before he deleted it). I searched for brand style #kimsaeron Wear was released in 2014 too! Saeron was only 14 years old. pic.twitter.com/iydexrs16x

KNET research and counterargument:
The shirt worn in the photo “Kim Soo Hyun kisses her cheek” was released in September 2014 based on online searches.

The t-shirt that Kim Saelong wore in the photo with Kim Soo Hyun was made before 2015.

So the T-shirt was released in 2014 and re-released in 2019 rather than 2019.

Additionally, Chinese fans reportedly received a gift in 2013 to Soo Hyun, the glasses he wore in a virus photo.

Meanwhile, the gold medalist not only strongly denied alleged speculation about a minor dating, but also emphasized the disbandment of SAE-Ron’s debts, proving that Soo Hyun never put pressure on the late actress to pay off the money she owed the company.

So when Sae Ron first dropped the photo, Kim Soo Hyun and his agency denied that the two had even dated. This has changed the song. Yeah. I don’t believe it. – Chido (@chichi2696) March 14, 2025
“Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Sae Long have been in a relationship since the summer of 2019,” she was 19 and you were 31.

You know I think it’s another lie from the agency. In 2024, they don’t say that KSH and Saeron are dating, but now they claim they are dating in 2019
And these photos are from 2016. If you see it, it’s the same clothes as the photos spread by YouTuberspic.twitter.com/rdcecu9by7

Is he still trying to give guilt after all those evidence? Crazy. He’s just crazy. – bekind (@heohyungje) March 14, 2025
“The relationship lasted from November 19, 2015 to July 7, 2021,” ages 16 and 30! Kim Seo Hyun You’re going to hell. – mar℃⋆ (@thisuserlovespp) March 11, 2025
