Full Statement from Fans on Kim Sae-ron
We are deeply saddened and heartbroken to hear the tragic news that our beloved actress Kim Sae-ron has left us. As fans who have loved and supported her, we wish to honor her memory and walk with her in her final journey.
From a young age, Kim Sae-ron showed exceptional passion and talent for acting, shining on the screen. She delivered deep performances in numerous works and touched the hearts of many viewers. However, the path she walked was never easy.
She acknowledged her mistakes, reflected on them, and tried to stand up again. However, the criticism and public rejection she had to bear were beyond human limits. Despite the harsh and cold public scolding, which was far too severe compared to her mistakes, she endured it all.
AdvertisementAt the same time, we cannot help but question the double standards that apply to celebrities when we witness politicians, who have committed far more serious crimes, living freely without taking responsibility.
We will remember Kim Sae-ron. We will not forget her acting, her warm heart, and all the moments she left us. We hope that she is now in a place where she no longer suffers and is at peace.
Furthermore, we deeply regret the sudden loss of Kim Sae-ron and believe that society needs to reflect on such tragedies to prevent them from repeating. Groundless criticism, mockery, and malicious comments can completely ruin a person’s life. We hope this event will serve as an opportunity for our society to look at everyone with a warmer perspective.

May the deceased rest in peace.
