Recently, netizens dug up photos from 2015, when Kim Soo Hyun was 28 years old and Kim Sae Ron was 16 years old (according to Korean age). It is known that 2015 was also the year mentioned in the dating rumors of the two.

On March 10, a person claiming to be the aunt of the late artist Kim Sae Ron caused a stir in Chinese and Korean public opinion when appearing on the YouTube channel Garo Sero Institute. This is a channel run by a group of former reporters and lawyers, specializing in reporting on the Korean entertainment industry.

This person revealed that Kim Sae Ron used to have a romantic relationship with Kim Soo Hyun. Specifically, on March 23, 2024, the actress posted an intimate photo with this actor but he quickly denied the dating rumors. On March 24, she prepared a long article about her 6-year relationship with Kim Soo Hyun but in the end did not post it.

According to Kim Sae Ron’s aunt, the intimate photo was actually taken in 2016. She and Kim Soo Hyun started dating on November 19, 2015 and broke up on July 7, 2021.

At that time, Kim Sae Ron was only 15 years old, while Kim Soo Hyun was 28 years old.

Koreans count one year of age at birth and add one year to their age every Lunar New Year. If calculated this way, in 2016, Kim Soo Hyun would be 29 or 30 years old, depending on the time of year (before or after Lunar New Year). The age of the late actress Kim Sae Ron was also calculated in the same way.

Kim Sae Ron accused the company and Kim Soo Hyun of cutting off contact with her, sending threatening documents, and unilaterally terminating the contract. Regarding this information, Kim Soo Hyun’s side denied it and said that they would sue the parties who spread false information.
