Kim Soo-hyun’s management, Gold Medalist, has clarified that the actor is not in a romantic relationship with Kim Sae-ron, following widespread speculation ignited by a photo shared on social media. The rumors began after Kim Sae-ron posted an image on Instagram showing a cozy moment with Soo-hyun, which she later deleted. Despite the rapid spread of the image online, Gold Medalist emphasized that the picture was old, taken during a time when both actors were managed by the same agency.
The agency expressed confusion over Kim Sae-ron’s motive for sharing the photo and addressed the unfounded rumors that have since emerged. They firmly denied the dating allegations, stressing the importance of distinguishing fact from speculation. Additionally, Gold Medalist announced its intent to pursue legal action against any defamatory content aimed at tarnishing Soo-hyun’s reputation.
