That's an interesting perspective. I only know of him from a video where they talked about this. I thought I was confusing him with someone else for a second, hence the question. Well, it's not surprising to know people moved on~~

Is this the same actor who was caught in a cheating scandal, or am I confusing him with someone else?

my goodness. just because im new on an app doesn't make me a troll. i can write full sentences and form a thought, unlike groomer defenders. i have enough "karma" points or "contribution" points on other forums with similar system. its okay though! you both are not the brightest! :D

it must be hard for you that your insults are not working on me the way it aggregates everyone else! you both are adorable! :D

yall are cute together, forming a friendship in this place, of all things! :D

They're riding him so hard XD

i love how my braincell cannot take any of your replies seriously. it’s like i’m talking to an immature teenager who just discovered pop culture chat and contrarian takes online and decided being provocative counts as having a personality.

are you seriously saying she just randomly chose to die on his birthday?

wow... that's something :O

you have to be another level of delusional if you're denying even her date of death, like this is the funniest thing ive come across.

his company literally demanded money from her at her lowest point, and he proceeded to ignore her over the year she was suffering. i have already stated this in the other reply.

i love how your response to a patriarchal society where women suffer daily from misogyny is: "BLA BLA BLA. Have you heard of rich men being blackmailed?"

yup, you are definitely 14 years old. or haven't mentally aged since 14 :D

oh, for sure! honestly, forget A listers, ill give you three actors in general who got away with stuff and rejoined the industry: Lee Jung Jae, Song Young Chang, Lee Jin Wook :D

oh you sweet summer child. i see you're still in denial of the grooming.

anyway, do you understand how female celebrities are treated in Korea? do you even have a speck of idea how women are treated there? are you aware of the 4b movement? im assuming you don't.

because if you did, your words such as "let the woman Kim Sae Ron tell us everything you're barking at here." and "Sae Ron would never have confirmed those lies!!!" wouldn't have been made.

im only going to explain this once. sadly, i don't think you'll understand, but anyways!

sae-ron was cyber-bullied for her DUI case. fortunately, she didn't hurt anyone physically, but she did cause damage, for which she apologized and compensated over and over again.

however, unfortunately for the women there, regardless of the level of their crimes, they'll be going on a witch hunt. her projects and brands were cut off, which cut off her income. even after taking accountability, she was not allowed to return to the industry anytime soon.

top it off, her groomer bf decided to isolate her, and to make it even worse, he puts a huge load of money on her head for her to pay back, which broke her.

she begs him to respond to her, but he didn't. in her desperation, she posts a pic of him and her on insta (which she later deletes), but guess what?

she got cyberbullied again for a single picture of them together. all sorts of misogynistic remarks and hate comments were being made. in this mess, while everyone was witch-hunting her, his company denied they ever dated.

this was even before she passed away. they denied any connection to them dating and let her drown individually. the groomer faced no backlash from this incident, of course.

but once this whole situation came up, they later changed their words to "ah yes, they dated but not when she was a minor."

now, what do you understand from this? perhaps, nothing, cause you're set on painting him as a saviour.

to explain it to you, she had literally ZERO power. both in the media and among the people who were ruining her.

he was literally an A-list celebrity whom she couldn't grab hold of a single hair without being hunted on. there was no way she could come out and talk about this, while her own issue was the limelight that was hurting her.

you have no idea the kind of influence male celebs hold when the women are still alive.

it took her passing away for anyone to bring this case up and report his ass, because now, there's a dead person.

a previous co-actress who worked with him passed away through s*i*i*e because of the cyberbullying she faced when she went n*de for a scene. mind you, he did as well, but she was eaten by internet wolves and the general public.

turns out, his agency and the director of that movie (who also happened to be the co-founder of his agency) had a shady part to play in her death as well, since the actress's brother posted on insta finally speaking up years after her death, asking for clarification on the explicit scene. im not going to explain about this further, because this is an entirely different issue.

but my point is, even if ksr were alive and if she wanted to confront him, she wouldn't have been able to because of his enormous influence and her own standing, both as a woman and as an actress who is being hunted.

you keep asking everyone for proof that he groomed her. keeping aside logic and rational thinking aside, you have no proof of saying he didn't either.

like, sure, let's say he dated her as an adult - mind you, waiting until a girl turns 18 to date is screaming pdf, but well - what proof do you have he didn't groom her as a minor? hm?

couple of text messages being faked doesn't take away from the main point or prove anything.

honestly, you’re starting to sound like the kind of person who’d defend grown men dating someone who just turned 15 if 15 happened to be the legal age of adulthood :D

aw, look at you. responding to me even though I'm so fake! responding to me saying "it's not for you!"

if it's not for me, then why reply to my messages and get me notified? you're so adorable :D

anyway, you're being ridiculous.

whether he sent her one letter or a hundred letters doesn't matter. in no world should an adult man (30 years old at the time) serving in the military need to write "I miss you" to a minor (17 years old) he's not related to.

not to mention, this is the literal translated text: "What I’m trying to say is… I just want to share what I think is good, what I find as joy, what I’m looking at or feeling… I want to share these things with you. It’s hard to see your face, but I still want to share with you how I feel inside. What I’m willing. I don’t want to burden you… So, I guess what I can say is… I miss you."

if you cannot see the obvious implication in that letter, i'm sorry, but you're genuinely a lost cause.

ah, yes, "pRoFeSsIoNaLs" who have been paid off by his team. is this your first time on the internet?

i see you're lacking in the reading comprehension department, which isn't surprising.

again, it doesn't matter if it's one single letter he responded to. you're highkey missing the point, but that's okay! you're not the brightest!

it comes as a negative trait being his defender, so i can understand! :D

I'm so glad to have seen your thread. There are two specific delusional users in these comments, whom I don't have to name, who are constantly avoiding the part where KSH took her own life on his birthday, and are defending him like crazy. I cannot imagine the level of ignorance and unemployment.

There are so many male celebrities in a misogynistic country like Korea who have gotten away with their crimes, time and time again. Like, imagine not having your own thought process on how this whole thing works. Do they really think these rich ass celebs from a patriarchal society can't pay their way away?

I'm disappointed at the non-existence of some people's moral compass tbh

yup! it do be like that! nothing surprising on that end. they have been spamming all of his spaces, trying to enforce his "innocence." if anything, they have to be some sort of paid pr manager, haha :D

if that makes you sleep better at night, then sure!

eh? cat got your tongue? just because im new to this place doesn't mean im a fake account. i love how you don't have any arguments to my points, though! :D

and she died on his birthday. he ruined her life with money at her lowest. people seem to forget things like this happened, even when this speaks volumes about his character. it's difficult to see how a reasonable person could read this information and not reach a rational, logical conclusion.

these people will never understand. the user has been spamming non-stop about how innocent their oppa is. i wish i were this level of ignorant and unemployed

yall are so delusional, it's insane. he literally used to send her letters from the military when she was UNDERAGE. there's no reason an adult man should send handwritten letters to a minor saying he misses her. this is not AI. he admitted to this.

he was involved with her even when she was a minor. age gaps are perfectly fine if BOTH parties are GROWN ADULTS. this guy met her when she was a minor and has been grooming her since.

i get that you love your opparr and have been spamming this comment section, but please be rational and think for yourselves. there's no reason she would literally off herself on HIS birthday, of everything. even if we keep aside the age gap, he ruined her life when she was at her lowest. if that doesn't tell you anything about his character, then idk what ever will.

you are voicing for the wrong man.

A-list male actors often get away with a lot of crimes. the country is built on years and years of misogyny and double standards. the actresses, or women, get the short end of the stick.

and funny you use Lee Byung Hun as an example for having "healthy and not committing any crime" - this man literally cheated on his pregnant wife twice. it was a huge issue back when i was in school. she forgave him, unfortunately, but recently she spoke about how he doesn't want her to travel and have her own space. she quit the industry after marrying to him. people gloss over what he did cause he is a man and can get away with anything.

there are so many A-list actors with worse crimes, but it's fans like you who allow them to exist in this space without even a proper apology or accountability on their end.
