Based on the report, the truth behind the rumors of a "credit crisis" involving Kim Soo Hyun and Gold Medalist Management Company is not accurate.
For example, Kim Soo Hyun was told to owe 38 million won in legal fees (including court fees and document submission fees) on April 17, Kim Soo Hyun's legal representative said that this amount had been fully paid.
The request for an extension of the time to supplement the documents - which sparked this rumor - was confirmed to be only to adjust the addresses of some defendants.
