Kim Sae-ron’s Mother Only Hoped for an Apology from Kim Soo-hyun to Restore Her Daughter’s Honor

The latest livestream by the YouTube channel Garo Sero Institute, has become the hottest topic across Asian social media platforms. The livestream sent shockwaves across social media as it unveiled explosive claims regarding Kim Soo-hyun’s past with the late actress Kim Sae-ron. According to the channel, the two were allegedly involved in a romantic relationship that began when Kim Sae-ron was just 15 years old – a revelation that has left the public reeling.

However, what truly struck a chord with viewers was the heart-wrenching letter from Kim Sae-ron’s mother. Until now, she had chosen to remain silent, allowing Kim Sae-ron’s father and aunt to speak on the family’s behalf. But on this fateful evening, she finally broke her silence, using the Garo Sero Institute platform to fight for her daughter’s honor. In a deeply emotional plea, she expressed her desperate wish to clear Kim Sae-ron’s name, which she claims was unfairly tarnished by false media reports and baseless speculation.
Kim Sae-ron’s Mother’s Message:
“The reason I am speaking about my daughter, who is no longer with us, is to restore her honor – an honor that was destroyed in an instant by false media reports. We are not doing this to gain anything or to provoke division among the public.
I only want my daughter to be remembered as an actress who was acknowledged and respected. Please help ensure that she is no longer the subject of baseless speculation and that her reputation as an actress can be restored.”

Her words struck a deep chord with netizens, leaving many overwhelmed with emotion. Before her passing, Kim Sae-ron endured relentless cyberbullying, her reputation dragged through the mud – not only due to her DUI controversy but also because of a wave of malicious rumors. It was only after her tragic death that the truth began to emerge. For instance, the claim that she had faked working at a café for sympathy was later debunked, with sources confirming that she had indeed been struggling financially and had taken on a part-time job to support herself.
However, the real turning point in her public downfall came when she posted an intimate photo with Kim Soo-hyun. Almost immediately, his agency, Gold Medalist, dismissed dating rumors, and the backlash against Kim Sae-ron was swift and brutal. She was labeled a clout chaser, a liar, and an opportunist craving attention, leading to her being ostracized across all social media platforms.

Now, with Kim Sae-ron’s mother stepping forward, demanding that her daughter’s honor be restored, public outrage against Kim Soo-hyun has intensified. Many recall how Kim Sae-ron was hounded by online attacks for nearly a year, with her reputation shattered beyond repair – all because of her alleged connection to him.
Some netizens even believe that Kim Sae-ron’s mother was subtly calling out Kim Soo-hyun himself, as he was rumored to have leaked her phone number to reporters, worsening her distress and ultimately pushing her into an unbearable mental crisis in the final year of her life.
