The South Korean entertainment industry is surely in a state of shock as top actor Kim Soo-hyun finds himself embroiled in a controversy involving the late Kim Sae-ron. The actor is currently facing backlash over his alleged relationship with Kim Sae-ron, who was only 15 years old at the start of their relationship, while he was 27.

Since her death ¡ª which coincided with his birthday ¡ª news about the two has been spreading, with the late actress' aunt speaking out against him. However, that's not all. Many hidden and buried aspects of Kim Soo-hyun's past are also resurfacing, including his actions and comments about other K-drama actresses.

His past comments

In 2013, Kim Soo-hyun starred in the hit film Secretly, Greatly. During a showcase on April 30, he spoke about his life plans, saying, "When I was 24, I made a life plan while thinking about how I would make a living, and I decided that I would get married between the ages of 36 and 37. But now, I don¡¯t think I¡¯ll be able to stick to that plan."

However, his next comment drew criticism. He added, "It looks like my marriage timeline has been pushed back a bit. I think I might be able to get married at around 41. I¡¯ll marry a 21-year-old when I'm 41."

Let's take a look at the names that have been mentioned so far.

Kim Sae-ron

According to Kim Sae-ron's aunt, she began dating Kim Soo-hyun in 2015, when she was 15 and he was 27. Their six-year relationship ended in 2021. In 2019, Kim Sae-ron joined Kim Soo-hyun's agency, GOLD MEDALIST, after leaving YG Entertainment. They reportedly broke up following her drunk driving incident, with Kim Soo-hyun and his company stepping in to manage the situation despite her initial refusal.

She added that the bereaved family has evidence, including photos, of the late actress's six-year relationship with Kim Soo-hyun, which they plan to share with the world through Garosero Research Institute.

Suzy

Kim Soo-hyun and Bae Suzy starred in the 2011 drama Dream High and were Ambassadors for the 16th Korea Goyang International Flower Festival. Suzy, a member of Miss A, played his love interest, sparking dating rumors.

In a 2012 episode of Strong Heart, Suzy shared, "I'm still underage, but I've already filmed four kiss scenes. I was most nervous for my Dream High kiss scene with Kim Soo-hyun." She added, "Kim Soo-hyun taught me the right angle for the bus kiss scene, so we pulled it off easily".

Kim Yoo-jung

A past interview from Kim Soo-hyun's time on The Moon That Embraces the Sun has resurfaced. He starred alongside Han Ga-in and child actress Kim Yoo-jung, who was just 13 years old at the time. His comments about Kim Yoo-jung have recently gone viral.

"I guess I previously thought of her as just a baby. But after seeing her in real life, I found her confident and smart, and she didn't seem young at all. I look forward to seeing her mature, and I think I'll be able to meet her as a drama co-star soon," he had said.

Park Eun-bin

A GIF from a 2010 event recently resurfaced, showing Kim Soo-hyun giving Park Eun-bin a doll before swiftly running off. At the time, Park Eun-bin was 18, still a minor in Korea, while Kim Soo-hyun was 22 and legally an adult.

The clip sparked outrage among netizens ¡ª some questioned the odd choice of a doll as a gift, while others pointed out a pattern of his unusual interactions with young actresses.

Nam Ji-hyun

Kim Soo-hyun's past remarks about Nam Ji-hyun, made during a 2010 interview when she was 15 and he was 22, have resurfaced. Reflecting on their work in Will It Snow for Christmas? and Giant, he joked, "It felt so weird, like my younger brother had stolen my girl," referring to Yeo Jin-goo's role.

Despite their age gap, he praised Nam Ji-hyun's acting skills, admitting he learned from her and felt jealous of the praise she received from directors and senior actors. "I couldn¡¯t sleep before our first shoot because I was so jealous of how everyone adored her. I guess that's why my eyes were burning with competitiveness."

Sulli

Kim Soo-hyun and Sulli starred in the 2017 film Real, which gained attention for Sulli's intimate scenes. Despite public interest in the plot and their on-screen chemistry, the film received mixed reviews, with many criticizing Sulli's explicit scenes as unnecessary. Just 12 hours after its premiere, a topless scene and bed scenes between Sulli and Kim Soo-hyun were leaked online, sparking backlash.

While Sulli faced intense criticism, Kim Soo-hyun's career remained unaffected. Recently, netizens have called out Kim Soo-hyun for not defending Sulli against the slut-shaming she endured, noting that although the film was produced by his cousin, Sulli took the brunt of the fallout alone.

Tragically, she passed away in 2019 at the age of 25, following a public battle with mental health issues and relentless online bullying.
