Kim Sae-ron’s Secret Romance Timeline Revealed: Was WOODZ Her Mysterious Singer Boyfriend After Kim Soo-hyun?

On April 10, youtuber Lee Jin-ho uploaded a new video titled “A Coffee Truck Sent to Her Singer Ex-Boyfriend… The Real Timeline of Their Relationship? The Truth Behind the Late Kim Sae-ron’s KakaoTalk Messages”, revealing further details about the scandal involving Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Sae-ron.

In the video, Lee Jin-ho revealed Kim Sae-ron began dating a singer – temporarily referred to as A – after ending his relationship with Kim Soo-hyun around the fall of 2020. Although the relationship was never made officially public, the two are said to have acted “just like a public couple.”
Kim Soo-hyun had previously stated that he and Kim Sae-ron broke up around the fall of 2020. This means that both Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Sae-ron began new relationships with other people afterward. As a result, Kim Sae-ron’s claim that she was dating Kim Soo-hyun until July 7, 2021, is now under strong suspicion.
There is clear evidence to support this. At the time, Kim Sae-ron’s romantic partner was a singer. To avoid a witch hunt, this person will be referred to as ‘A’. Kim Sae-ron was reportedly full of love for A. Although their relationship was never officially revealed, they behaved almost like a public couple. Kim Sae-ron once sent a coffee truck to the filming site of A’s music video, without revealing her name. She also attended official events hosted by A, accompanied by a celebrity friend she was close with at the time.
This suggests that Kim Sae-ron and A made their relationship quite obvious and that they were deeply in love. Their relationship continued from early 2021 until May 17, 2022. Furthermore, Kim Sae-ron even visited A’s apartment in Gangnam and stayed overnight. This apartment was where A lived with his mother, so the overnight stay indicates that Kim Sae-ron and A had a very close relationship.

Adding to the speculation, on April 7, 2023, singer WOODZ (Cho Seung-youn) posted a teaser for his fifth mini album “OO-LI” on Instagram, announcing his comeback scheduled for April 26. While fans filled the comments with supportive messages, Kim Sae-ron quietly liked the post. Though she left no comment, her action was quickly noticed due to Instagram’s visibility algorithms for celebrity activity.


Star News later confirmed that Kim Sae-ron follows WOODZ’s Instagram account, while he does not follow her back. While the exact nature of their relationship remains unclear, this gesture sparked renewed speculation about whether WOODZ is the mysterious “A” mentioned in Lee Jin-ho’s video.
