Kim Soo Hyun’s agency has denied the rumors of his romantic involvement with Kim Sae Ron.
Following their initial statement (which you can read in our original article below), GOLDMEDALIST has now released a formal statement clarifying that the actor is not currently dating Kim Sae Ron.
The agency’s full statement is as follows:
"Hello. This is GOLDMEDALIST.
We are making an official statement regarding Kim Soo Hyun’s photo that was spread today.
We are informing you that Kim Soo Hyun’s dating rumors are not currently true. The photo that has been spread online appears to have been taken in the past, when [Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Sae Ron] were under the same agency, and we are completely unable to understand the motivation behind Kim Sae Ron’s action [of posting the photo].
Due to the photo in question, unnecessary misunderstandings and groundless speculation about our actor are currently running rampant, and we will be taking strong legal action through our legal representative in response to malicious slander and insulting posts that defame our actor’s character or honor.
We ask that you refrain from writing rumors or groundless speculation regarding this matter.
Thank you."
