Various selfies and photos of the duo have been shared online, many of which the family of Kim Sae Ron claims are from 2015-2016. Lee Jin Ho picked one specific photo, the one where Soo Hyun is seen wearing a black cap while both he and Sae Ron are wearing the same kind of red-and-black puffer jackets. The YouTuber claimed that the mirror selfie cannot be from 2016, as it was taken from an iPhone 11, which was only released much later in 2019. Kim Sae Ron's family had made claims that the photo was from 2016 based on the 'It's Okay To Not Be Okay' actor's 2016-era baseball cap. He shared the photo in his video and talked about how the claims of it being from 2016 were false, as reusing an old accessory is not proof enough.

In light of more damning accusations made by Kim Saeron's family yesterday (7th May 2025) at the press conference involving the family's legal representative and YouTuber Kim Seui of Garo Sero Institute, Kim Soohyun's agency, has issued an official statement in regards to the accusations. On the same day of the press conference, GOLDMEDALIST rebuked all accusations made towards actor Kim Soohyun (김수현), stating 3 main points of argument, where they point out that the accusations made with proof were fabricated to defame him. Here are the highlights of the statement: GOLDMEDALIST's Position On The Audio Recording Claimed By HoverLab GOLDMEDALIST claims that the obtained audio recording of Kim Saeron (김새론) was fabricated using AI or similar technology. The statement also states that the audio provider who had given the recording to HoverLab had also approached them, demanding money, with an audio recording of the late actress making favourable comments towards Kim Soohyun. The agency also states that the perpetrator is not someone who could have had any contact with Kim Saeron, and investigations are well underway or the legitimacy of the recording. Their Stance On The Alleged 'Attack Photo' Mentioned By HoverLab GOLDMEDALIST rebukes the so-called 'attack photo' claimed by HoverLab and has presented that the photo can be easily found with a quick search on the internet. They claim that the attack is baseless and is completely unreasonable from a common-sense perspective. GOLDMEDALIST's Plan Response Towards HoverLab GOLDMEDALIST stands with their resolve that HoverLab has inflicted serious cyber attacks on Kim Soohyun. They have pointed out HoverLab's crimes of defamation, cyber sex crimes and evidence tampering. Moving forward, GOLDMEDALIST will immediately file criminal complaints and charges against HoverLab for violations of the 'Stalking Punishment Act' and the 'Act on Promotion of Information and Communications Network Utilisation and Information Protection' (Defamation). While investigation are underway, Kim Soohyun's agency have stated that they will work closely with authorities to ensure justice is served. What do you think about GOLDMEDALIST's stance on the case?
