Looks like GOLDMEDALIST wasn’t about to wait any longer. While fans were expecting an official statement next week, Kim Soo Hyun’s agency decided to release their response earlier than planned. And let’s just say, they had a lot to clarify.

So, what’s the deal?

The Relationship Rumors

The agency confirmed that Kim Soo Hyun and the late Kim Sae Ron were in a relationship—but only from the summer of 2019 to the fall of 2020, after she had already become a legal adult. They shut down claims that they had been dating while she was a minor and even provided photo metadata to back up their timeline.

They also called out media outlet HoverLab for allegedly distorting the truth by mixing up old photos, wrongly implying that their relationship started years earlier.

Addressing the Financial Allegations

One of the biggest rumors floating around was that Kim Soo Hyun ignored Kim Sae Ron’s financial struggles and that his agency pressured her to pay back 700 million won (around $481,300). GOLDMEDALIST denied this, stating that they actually covered most of the penalties she owed after her DUI incident. They clarified that any notices sent to Kim Sae Ron about her debt were just standard legal procedures, not a demand for repayment.

The Pressure on Kim Soo Hyun

The statement also highlighted the intense scrutiny Kim Soo Hyun has been under since these rumors surfaced. The agency claimed he was experiencing severe psychological distress, made worse by paparazzi-like behavior outside his agency’s offices.

The Bottom Line

GOLDMEDALIST made it clear that they wouldn’t stand for misinformation, urging people to separate facts from speculation. While the public may have its opinions on Kim Soo Hyun’s past, they emphasized that twisting events and spreading false claims only adds unnecessary pain to those involved.
