Kim Soo Hyun's team has filed another lawsuit against Kim Sae Ron's family and YouTuber Garo Sero for spreading rumours and presenting falsified evidence in the court.

Kim Soo Hyun Files Another Lawsuit Against Kim Sae Ron’s Family And YouTuber For Spreading False Rumours

Another recent development comes in the Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Sae Ron controversy. The actor has now filed an additional lawsuit and criminal complaint against Kim Se Ui, the person behind the YouTube channel Garo Sero Institute. Soo Hyun has also included the names of the late actresses’ family members in the complaint. The legal suits are based on accusations of spreading false rumours and presenting fabricated evidence.

Why Did Kim Soo Hyun’s Legal Team File A Lawsuit Against Garo Sero and Kim Sae Ron’s Family

On June 23, Kim Soo Hyun’s lawyers at L.K.B & Partners confirmed that both the actor and his agency, Gold Medalist, had filed additional complaints. They explained that the new accusations pertained to falsified statements made at a press conference held by Kim Se Ui earlier this year.

In the ceremony on 7 May, Kim Se Ui played an audio recording that he claimed was a conversation between Kim Sae Ron. As per Soo Hyun’s lawyers, this file was generated using artificial intelligence voice technology. Kim Se Ui had accused the actor of having a relationship with Sae Ron ever since they were in school together. He also claimed that Kim Soo Hyun’s side had made around 4 billion KRW (about 2.91 million USD) as a payment offer in return for the file, and turned to violence when they were rejected.

These claims were denied by Soo Hyun’s lawyers, who labelled the accusations as completely false and without any substance. They emphasised the seriousness of filing a criminal complaint based on fake evidence, claiming it amounts to a malicious false accusation.

In addition to presenting unproven allegations with the altered audio clip, Kim Se Ui and Kim Sae Ron’s family also pursued the case further by making a criminal complaint of their own against the actor for false charges and breaches under the Child Welfare Act. Kim’s attorneys consider this an especially egregious case of wrongful accusation.
