Actor Kim Soo-hyun will hold a press conference. He is expected to directly address the allegations surrounding him.
On the 30th, Kim Soo-hyun's agency, Golden Artist, announced that a press conference will be held on the 31st at 4:30 PM at the Stanford Hotel in Mapo-gu, Seoul, with Kim Soo-hyun and the agency's legal representative in attendance.
The agency stated, "First of all, we apologize for causing concern due to recent events. We have arranged this meeting to speak directly with the reporters."
They added, "On this day, there will be an announcement of Kim Soo-hyun's position, along with the law firm (limited) LK Partners, which is acting as our legal representative."
However, there will be no Q&A session regarding the allegations. The agency emphasized, "We kindly ask for your understanding that there will be no separate Q&A session aside from the position statement."
Meanwhile, Kim Soo-hyun has been embroiled in allegations of grooming related to the late Kim Sae-ron. The family of Kim Sae-ron claims that she was in a relationship with Kim Soo-hyun from the age of 15 to 21, when she was a minor.
Last year, when the first dating rumors with Kim Sae-ron emerged, Kim Soo-hyun's side denied the relationship but changed their stance on the 14th, stating, "Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Sae-ron dated from the summer of 2019, after Kim Sae-ron became an adult, until the fall of 2020. It is not true that Kim Soo-hyun dated Kim Sae-ron when she was a minor."
The family of Kim Sae-ron has continued to stir controversy by revealing evidence during a press conference on the 27th, supporting their claim that Kim Sae-ron was in a romantic relationship with Kim Soo-hyun when she was a minor.
