The scandal involving actor Kim Soo Hyun, YouTube channel Garosero, and the family of the late actress Kim Sae Ron broke out earlier this month. Garosero and Kim Sae Ron's family ѕнσ¢кed the public with their statement accusing Kim Soo Hyun of having a relationship with a minor and forcing the actress to make a negative decision because of a huge debt.
When the news was released by Garosero and the actress's family, the public continuously criticized the A-list actor, claiming that he was a traitor to his ex-lover. Kim Soo Hyun not only faced a wave of public outrage, but also faced a series of film, TV show, and brand advertising contracts being canceled.
In the latest development of the scandal these days, the story has taken a nearly 180-degree turn. The notorious YouTuber Lee Jin Ho released a recording that included a scene in which Kim Soo Hyun still met with Kim Sae Ron to help solve some problems during her difficult time.
On the other hand, the recording also shows that the cause of the singer's ∂єαтн was her new boyfriend, whom she met after breaking up with Kim Soo Hyun. The two were even married in the US and this person had caused the late actress to have an abortion before her ∂єαтн.
From here, many viewers realized that actor Kim Soo Hyun seemed to have been harmed by Garosero and Kim Sae Ron's family in collaboration. Notably, veteran actress Kim Bu Seon also posted a long video discussing Kim Soo Hyun's controversy on her YouTube channel. The video is titled "Celebrities' human rights are less protected than serial кιℓℓers!!!"
The video features a scene where Kim Bu Seon criticizes the allegations about the relationship between Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Sae Ron as "cowardly". She said: "How cowardly. Can’t men and women date? Isn’t this an era where freedom of expression is abundant?…But celebrities’ human rights are worth less than those of serial кιℓℓers."
Kim Bu Seon even called the public backlash against Kim Soo Hyun a "witch hunt": "People wouldn’t dare to say a word to the wife of someone in power, but they вυℓℓу easy targets like Kim Sae Ron, Wheesung, and even me. But now, since they need a new scapegoat, they’re trying to carry out a witch hunt against the young actor Kim Soo Hyun."
She ended the video by condemning the treatment of celebrities, saying that celebrities are "powerless", adding that public anger towards such public figures is often misplaced.
Kim Bu Seon mentioned: "You are treating powerless, easy targets like Wheesung and Kim Sae Ron worse than serial кιℓℓers when it comes to human rights. Do celebrities not pay taxes? Are they people who don’t have voting rights? We are also someone’s precious children and mothers, and we are equal human beings whose rights are guaranteed. There is no reason to treat us recklessly."
It is clear that many viewers rushed to boycott Kim Soo Hyun when the scandal first began because they believed what Garosero had accused them of. But now, many new details of the scandal have been revealed, showing that the wave of criticism directed at the actor before was too harsh.
On the other hand, Goldmedalist initially tried to meet with Kim Sae-ron's family to clear up the misunderstanding. The company even considered providing financial support to Kim Sae-ron's family, even taking into account gift taxes.
But the plan was scrapped after Garosero posted a photo of them washing dishes taken when they were adults.
Goldmedalist believes that financial support, even if it comes from goodwill, is still an extremely risky transaction and negotiation мєтнod. If rejected, it can lead to a misunderstanding that “They just want to use money to bribe”, causing the company and the actor to face a backlash!
