Kim Soo Hyun finally spoke out on March 31, addressing the swirling controversy involving the late actress Kim Sae Ron. In an emotional press conference, the actor apologized but firmly denied allegations linking him to her tragic passing.

"I Apologize, But I Won’t Admit to Lies"

With a heavy heart, Kim Soo Hyun admitted he struggled with fear and hesitation before stepping forward. He acknowledged dating Kim Sae Ron five years ago for about a year but refuted claims that he manipulated her or contributed to her struggles. He also dismissed the alleged KakaoTalk messages presented by Kim Sae Ron’s family as evidence, questioning their authenticity.

"I understand if people doubt me, but I can’t confess to things I didn’t do," he stated. "There are too many inconsistencies in the evidence being shared."

Legal Action in Motion

Kim Soo Hyun didn’t stop at words—his legal team has already filed defamation lawsuits against Kim Sae Ron’s family members and online platforms spreading accusations. They are determined to clear his name through legal verification of the evidence presented.

"I Will Stand By the Truth"
The actor confessed that fear of damaging his career and the projects he worked on influenced his past silence. However, he made it clear that while he’s ready to take responsibility for his choices, he refuses to be labeled a murderer based on false claims.
"I won’t ask you to believe me," he concluded. "But I will prove the truth."

As the case unfolds, one thing is certain—Kim Soo Hyun is ready to fight back.
