According to recent news from Money Today, Kim Sae Ron's biological father contacted her homeowner on February 18, just one day after the actor's funeral, demanding to return the 50 million won rent deposit.
However, Kim Sae Ron's father is known that the deposit did not belong to Kim Sae Ron, but was paid by the CEO of an unnamed education company (called A). This person helped Kim Sae Ron pay the house deposit twice during the time she was struggling financially.
In addition, a friend who is a singer of Kim Sae Ron (called B) also helped the actor pay a portion of the deposit for the house in Nonhyeon-dong. Both of these people chose to pay directly, instead of lending Kim Sae Ron money, because they did not want to get involved in money issues with acquaintances.
A real estate industry insider said: "It seems like the father doesn't know how Kim Sae Ron got a house. At first, the homeowner was surprised by the family's request, but in the end, he returned the money to Mr. A".
Under the article in Money Today, the Korean public left many skeptical comments and criticized the actions of Kim Sae Ron's family.
A comment that received more than 3,300 likes wrote: It seems like the family is completely uncared for by Kim Sae Ron when she is alive. They didnt even know she was married. I don't know if she's in the US or Korea. It was unknown that she was abused and deceived by her husband. I don't know how she can rent a house.
All they know is that her ex-lover from many years ago was very rich and he was easily influenced by public opinion. That's all, right? They must suffer the consequences of their wrongdoings."
Some other comments criticized Kim Sae Ron's family and YouTube channel Garosero, which also received thousands of likes, saying: "Request to return the deposit just 2 days after my daughter passed away? Are they crazy?".
This family does not seem to be alert. The more I looked at it, the more I found Garosero (the YouTuber channel accusing Kim Soo Hyun) suspicious. They are chasing Kim Soo Hyun without any solid evidence.
This whole story is a national scam staged by Garosero and the broker. What did Kim Soo Hyun do to suffer this?".
Meanwhile, Kim Sae Ron's family provided information to YouTube channel Garosero, accusing Kim Soo Hyun of dating Kim Sae Ron for 6 years (2015-2021), since she was a minor.
The actor's family also accused Kim Soo Hyun and his management company Gold Medalist of debt collecting from Kim Sae Ron while she was struggling financially, pushing her along.
However, at a press conference on March 31, Kim Soo Hyun denied the allegations. The photo only confirmed that she dated Kim Sae Ron for about a year, from the summer of 2019 to the fall of 2020.
Kim Soo Hyun has filed a defamation lawsuit against the family of Kim Sae Ron, the operator of YouTube channel Garosero, and the person who claimed to be Kim Sae Ron's aunt, demanding 12 billion won in damages.
