Garo Sero Teases New Allegations “Abortion Impossible, Kim Soo-hyun Worse Than Nth Room?”
On March 21, Garo Sero held a live broadcast, reviewing reports concerning Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Sae-ron while adding their own commentary. During the stream, Garo Sero’s representative Kim Se-ui addressed the recording recently released by YouTuber Lee Jin-ho, who has been sued by Kim Sae-ron’s family.
Previously, on January 8, 2025 at 8:55 AM, Lee Jin-ho revealed a recorded phone call between Kim Sae-ron and an official from her new agency (referred to as A). He exposed aspects of the late actress’s private life, including that she had gotten married in New York and that she had had an abortion.
Regarding this, Kim Se-eui stated, “We’re currently gathering evidence. That New York guy – sure, he might be a bad person too. But this story about getting pregnant and having an abortion by him? That’s not even possible. The timeline doesn’t match. (We also) have things to say. We don’t intend to expose Kim Sae-ron’s past just to attack Lee Jin-ho and Kim Soo-hyun.”
Kim Se-ui continued, “Mr. Kim Soo-hyun, you’re in big trouble. The issue isn’t just that you dated Kim Sae-ron when she was a middle schooler. What we have now is enormous. Your perverted… I’ll stop here. People are already telling me to stop talking.”
He went on to say, “Stop trying to water things down by pointing fingers at the New York guy. Kim Soo-hyun is the real issue, not him. We’re not going to recklessly drop bombs like Kim Yong-ho or Kang Yong-seok. But very soon, we’ll show just how sexually depraved he is.”
Kim Se-ui also warned, “We haven’t even played our real card yet. Kim Soo-hyun won’t just be pulled from a drama – this is beyond that. You know the Nth Room case? Remember how many years that guy got? What we have doesn’t even compare to that. Disney+, go ahead and try airing ‘Knock-Off‘. That’s when we’ll drop it.”
Meanwhile, the bereaved family of the late Kim Sae-ron recently claimed that she had dated Kim Soo-hyun for six years, from the age of 15 to 21 (2015~2021), when she was a minor. They also claimed she was pressured to repay 700 million KRW in penalties related to her drunk driving accident by her agency.
Kim Soo-hyun’s agency Gold Medalist has maintained their stance, saying, “The relationship began after she became an adult.”
Additionally, Kim Sae-ron’s family has decided to conduct a forensic analysis of her phone to obtain photos proving the relationship. On March 17, they filed a complaint with the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency against YouTuber Lee Jin-ho, accusing him of defamation through false information. On March 18, the case was assigned to the Seodaemun Police Station.
YouTuber Lee Jin-ho joined the controversy by claiming that Kim Sae-ron got married in the U.S., had an abortion and suffered abuse from her husband. He insisted “My legal action is not directed at the bereaved family” and announced his intention to take legal action against the woman claiming to be Kim Sae-ron’s aunt, whom he accused of spreading false information about him.
