Kim Sae Ron’s Family has confirmed that ‘K’ is Kim Sae Ron’s ex-boyfriend but strongly denies the accusation of abandoning her in the emergency room!!
She had only dated her ex-boyfriend for a month.
Kim Sae Ron‘s meaningful ex-boyfriend, identified as “K,” recently gave an interview on March 25, 2025. He implied that Kim Soo Hyun was not a factor in her death, and blamed her family and husband instead.
He made several claims about her family, claiming that they did not care about her. “K” claimed that she struggled heavily due to her family’s indifference to her personal situation. He revealed that on November 1, 2024, she attempted self-harm and required emergency surgery. K claimed that while her family was notified of this, none of them showed up to be there for her in her time of need, with only “K” staying by her side until she was discharged from the hospital.
“When I brought Sae Ron home after she was discharged, her mother and her mother’s friend were casually having a meal at home. She didn’t look surprised or show any signs of empathy.
This kind of reaction from her family is why she always wanted to run away.”
— “K”
Kwon Young Chan, the head of the Korea Celebrity Suicide Prevention Association, who has been in contact with Kim Sae Ron’s family, refuted K’s claims strongly on their behalf. In an interview on March 25, 2025, he presented a hospital receipt and reiterated that her family had gone to the hospital over 18 times for Kim Sae Ron.

“She attempted suicide about 20 times, and her parents took her to the hospital for 18 of them. They were there for her throughout.”

Kwon added that on the day K claimed her former agency paid for her emergency surgery, Kim Sae Ron did not contact her mother.
“Her manager accompanied her instead, likely because her mother, who worked nights as a substitute driver, was sleeping during the day. The agency CEO was reported furious at the manager for not informing the family, fearing something could have gone wrong.”

Finally, Kwon denounced K’s claims that the young actress committed suicide because of her family and husband. He confirmed that K and Kim Sae Ron had only dated for a month, expressed doubt at why Kim Sae Ron would confide so much to someone she only knew for such a short time.
“They only dated for a month. Would someone really confide such deeply personal issues to someone they were with for such a short time? He says, ‘It wasn’t because of Kim Soo-hyun’ while simultaneously blaming her family—it doesn’t add up.”
