“I Did Not Date the Deceased When She Was a Minor” – Kim Soo-hyun Speaks Out
On March 31, 2025, renowned South Korean actor Kim Soo-hyun held a press conference to address recent allegations concerning his past relationship with the late actress Kim Sae-ron. The 37-year-old actor firmly denied claims that he had dated Kim Sae-ron while she was underage, expressing deep distress over the accusations.
Kim Soo-hyun clarified that their romantic involvement occurred five years ago, when Kim Sae-ron was of legal age. Born in July 2000, Kim Sae-ron would have been 19 at the time. He emphasized that their relationship did not begin during her minority and refuted suggestions that his actions contributed to her tragic passing in February at the age of 24. “I did not date the deceased when she was a minor. And it is also not true that the deceased made a tragic choice because of me turning a blind eye,” Kim stated during the conference.
The controversy emerged after a YouTube exposé alleged that Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Sae-ron had been involved in a romantic relationship since 2016, when she was 15 and he was 27. The video presented purported evidence, including screenshots of messages, which Kim Soo-hyun has labeled as false.
In response to these allegations, several brands, including luxury fashion house Prada, have severed ties with the actor.
Addressing the fallout, Kim Soo-hyun announced legal action against those disseminating the accusations. His legal team has filed lawsuits seeking damages totaling 12 billion won (approximately $8.15 million) and has reported individuals involved in the YouTube exposé for defamation and violations of information protection laws.
The late Kim Sae-ron was once considered a rising star in South Korea’s entertainment industry. However, her career faced challenges following a drunk driving incident in 2022, which led to significant public scrutiny.
In the wake of the controversy, Kim Soo-hyun’s professional engagements have been impacted. A fan meeting in Taiwan, initially scheduled for March 30, was canceled due to “schedule adjustments,” resulting in a reported penalty of approximately 1.3 billion won. Despite this, other events, such as the 2025 Kaohsiung Cherry Blossom Festival in Taiwan, proceeded with his participation as planned.

The singer took to social media and urged the government “TO MR PRESIDENT. IF YOU REALLY, TRULY WANNA END INSECURITY IN NIGERIA? Start by increasing the salary and allowances of the armed forces. The salary of the army, the navy, the air force, the Nigerian Police Force is too small, too shameful. Increase their salary, this job should be worth dying for. Increase their salaries ooooooo pls and pls.”
Nigerian singer, Peter Okoye from the former duo P-Square, shares his greatest fear. During a recent interview, the singer spoke about his fears and revealed that he is not afraid of death.
Instead, he said he is scared of poverty and has this fear because he has experienced it before. “I am not afraid of death. The only thing I am afraid of in this life is poverty, of being broke.
“I have tasted it [poverty] before. I have been in our house with my parents and siblings, and a bulldozer came and demolished it.”
Popular Nigerian singer, Davido, makes headlines for his gesture of goodwill. It can be noted that during the afternoon performance, the singer paused for one minute of silence to honor his colleague Wizkid’s mother.
The singer paused during his performance and said “Personally, I have lost many loved ones, people close to me, so I understand how Wizkid is feeling right now. May his mother, our mother because she was dear to me, rest in peace.”
This gesture touched many fans, as they were in awe of the singer showing a kind heart despite the usual rivalry between their fan bases.
