Kim Soo-hyun’s agency has dismissed renewed allegations that the South Korean actor was in a relationship with the late actress Kim Sae-ron after the claims resurfaced on YouTube.
On Monday, YouTube channel HoverLab Inc. alleged that Soo-hyun and Sae-ron, who were previously under the same agency, Gold Medalist, were in a six-year relationship, including a period when the actress was only 15. The two had a 13-year age gap.
Gold Medalist denied the claims, calling them “clearly false and baseless,” as reported by Korean news agency Yonhap and entertainment website Soompi. The agency also stated that it is reviewing legal action against HoverLab Inc. for spreading misinformation.
Gold Medalist expressed sadness over Sae-ron’s passing, saying, “We mourn her loss.”
Soo-hyun, known for My Love From the Star and Queen of Tears, was previously linked to Sae-ron in 2024 after she posted a photo with him on Instagram. The agency denied the dating rumors at the time.
