New information in the love scandal involving Kim Soo Hyun – Kim Sae Ron has caused a stir among the public.
The suspicion that Kim Soo Hyun dated Kim Sae Ron when the actress was still a minor has received great attention from the Asian public over the past week. During the livestream on the evening of March 15, the YouTube channel Garo Sero Institute (a group of lawyers and former reporters specializing in reporting on “secret palace history” of showbiz) revealed an image of Kim Soo Hyun washing dishes in Kim Sae Ron’s kitchen. In this photo, the person believed to be Kim Soo Hyun is still wearing a shirt, but Garo Sero Institute is covering up a rather sensitive area.
On the morning of March 16, Weibo reported that the online community was abuzz with an uncensored full image showing Kim Soo Hyun wearing shorts while washing dishes at Kim Sae Ron’s house. This image was shared at a dizzying speed, immediately becoming a hot topic on social networks recently. But it turns out that the uncensored full image above is actually just a product created by AI using the image reconstruction feature and editing application.
The online community is buzzing over the full uncensored photo of Kim Soo Hyun wearing pants while washing dishes in Kim Sae Ron’s kitchen.
But it turns out that the full, uncensored photo is just an edited product of the original photo of Kim Soo Hyun released by Garo Sero Institute on the evening of March 15.
On forums, netizens expressed their outrage at the act of editing Kim Soo Hyun’s photo amid the noisy storm, believing that this action was based on deliberately using the artist’s private life for profit. Originally, the original photo published by Garo Sero Institute on the evening of March 15 caused public outrage because it was considered an invasion of Kim Soo Hyun’s privacy, so the public did not respond to some individuals editing this photo to attract more attention.
Not only are many viewers upset when Garo Sero Institute continuously publicizes private moments of Kim Soo Hyun – Kim Sae Ron, reporters from Osen also spoke out to criticize this action. In a recent article, Osen reporters warned viewers about the suspicion that Garo Sero Institute is profiting from Kim Sae Ron’s death in an excessive way. Accordingly, Garo Sero Institute on one hand declared to help Kim Sae Ron’s family to get justice for her, but at the same time also called for donations in each livestream and even set a goal of reaching 1 million registrations. This made the media and many people question the real motive behind Garo Sero Institute.
Osen added that the Sero Garo Institute’s continuous release of private photos of Kim Sae Ron and Kim Soo Hyun to create a stir in public opinion led to a series of false rumors about the Kim beauty being spread by the online community, the most infuriating of which was the news that the actress was pregnant before her death. From here, the Sero Garo Institute was accused of negatively affecting the reputation of the late artist Kim Sae Ron.
