The livestream of more than 1.5 hours on the YouTube channel Garo Sero Institute (a channel of a group of former reporters and lawyers, specializing in reporting on the Korean entertainment industry) ended with a series of accusations against Kim Soo Hyun. Not only the love scandal but also a series of shocking information surrounding his career were mentioned again. One of the most interested information is related to Kim Ji Won – who for the past year has been entangled in rumors of fake love with Kim Soo Hyun.

Specifically, during the livestream, the owner of the Garo Sero Institute channel suddenly mentioned an article about Kim Soo Hyun being continuously rumored to be dating 3 girls: Kim Ji Won, Kim Sae Ron and Lim Na Young (former members of IOI and PRISTIN), but his attitude was different. With Kim Sae Ron and Lim Na Young, Kim Soo Hyun immediately denied it. Meanwhile, with Kim Ji Won – his co-star who was creating the Queen of Tears fever with him, who was enthusiastically shipped by netizens at that time, Kim Soo Hyun chose to remain silent. This contrasting attitude was considered intentional to “stir up the couple” when at that time, only the dating rumor with Kim Ji Won helped Kim Soo Hyun’s reputation rise.

In addition to this article, Kim Ji Won was also mentioned through the sharing of Kim Sae Ron’s aunt. This person surprisingly said that Kim Ji Won and the dating rumor with Kim Soo Hyun were the reasons that hurt her niece:

” We didn’t want to mention Kim Soo Hyun, but he was too much. When Queen of Tears aired and exploded, there were also reports that Kim Ji Won and Kim Soo Hyun were dating. We honestly didn’t pay attention to those things. We just wanted to protect our daughter, and at that time, I really didn’t think about anything else, just focused on her. But in the end, she was hurt, and really, she couldn’t say anything .”

Couple Kim – Kim has been rumored to be dating for the past year.

Immediately after this post was aired, netizens were immediately outraged, not because of Kim Soo Hyun, but because they were upset on behalf of Kim Ji Won – who was mentioned twice during the live broadcast. Netizens did not understand why the family of the late actress Kim Sae Ron had to mention Kim Ji Won and were also curious about the authenticity of this post, whether Kim Sae Ron was really hurt or not, because by the time Queen of Tears aired, she had been broken up for about 3 years (if the timeline given before was correct).

At this time a year ago, Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Ji Won were two famous names throughout Asia because of their excellent collaboration in the movie Queen of Tears. The collaboration was so sweet that the two were rumored to be dating, and neither of them denied or admitted it. For nearly a year, the two have always been a hot topic even though the movie ended a long time ago. Especially when Kim Soo Hyun recently made a move to “stir up the couple” when mentioning Kim Ji Won’s name at an awards ceremony. Linking the problem together, netizens became even more indignant, thinking that the one who had to pay for both girls was Kim Soo Hyun.
