On March 18, 2025, the YouTube channel Garo Sero Research Institute (Garo Sero) released a video allegedly showing Kim Soo-hyun at Kim Sae-ron’s home. The video, which was shared with the consent of the late actress’s family, aims to counter Kim Soo-hyun’s previous claim that he had never visited her house.
Previously, Kim Sae-ron’s family and Garo Sero had accused Kim Soo-hyun of dating Kim Sae-ron while she was still a minor. In response, Kim Soo-hyun denied the allegations, stating that their relationship only began after she became an adult. However, a photo taken in front of the elevator at Kim Sae-ron’s residence, featuring a man presumed to be Kim Soo-hyun, spread on online forums, fueling speculation. Kim Soo-hyun’s agency, Gold Medalist, quickly denied the claims, asserting that the man in the photo was not the actor.
In the livestream on March 18, Garo Sero completely refuted Kim Soo-hyun’s claim that he had never visited Kim Sae-ron’s home by releasing a video with the consent of her family. The footage shows Kim Sae-ron flinching as if something is stuck to her back, exclaiming, “This is crazy. If I put this on my stomach, I’d die. It feels like taping something onto a cat’s back.”
A man, presumed to be Kim Soo-hyun, casually touches Kim Sae-ron’s waist and responds, “Aren’t you putting too much strength into it?” Kim Sae-ron playfully replies, “Are you still filming me?” while laughing.
Addressing the video, Garo Sero Institute’s head, Kim Se-ui, commented, “At first, Kim Sae-ron’s family thought Kim Soo-hyun was patting her back because she had hiccups. But viewers’ observations seem correct, it appears she was using a low-frequency therapy device, and Kim Soo-hyun was testing how it worked by tapping her back.”

He then directly called on Kim Soo-hyun, stating, “I expect you to release a statement tomorrow. If you deny that the person in the video is you, we have another prepared video in response, one that clearly shows your face.”
Adding to the controversy, Garo Sero Institute also released a screenshot of text messages allegedly exchanged between Kim Sae-ron and Kim Soo-hyun in 2018 when she was still a high school student.

Kim Se-ui further asserted, “According to the bereaved family, Kim Sae-ron explained that when she was seeing Kim Soo-hyun, he told her, ‘It would be dangerous if this gets out, so get a new phone,’ ‘Delete KakaoTalk,’ and ‘From now on, let’s communicate through Telegram.’”

Kim Soo-hyun has yet to issue an official response to these new revelations. However, Garo Sero claims they have additional videos, including one that clearly shows Kim Soo-hyun’s face, which they are prepared to release if he denies the allegations. The controversy continues to shake the Korean entertainment industry.
