About five months before actor Kim Sae-ron passed away, updates showing her in distress have recently emerged.
On the 23rd, a media outlet reported a photo of a post believed to be written by Kim Sae-ron on her private SNS account.
The post was created as a one-time post, known as a "story," which was publicly available for 24 hours, at around 2 a.m. on a day in September of last year, about five months before Kim Sae-ron's death. It was posted on a private SNS account where Kim Sae-ron communicated with acquaintances and revealed her mental state and circumstances at the time.
In the post, Kim Sae-ron left a message along with her selfie, saying, "If I die, please capture this post and share it," mentioning fellow entertainers who offered her financial help. Additionally, she expressed resentment, stating, "To those who left me when I was having the hardest time, think about what you received from me."
Particularly, she stated, "I was tested for alcohol and the result was 0, but the blood test showed a high result, which was from the day before; there was no power outage, and I provided compensation for the damages. Anyway, I will no longer be in pain," expressing grievance over past controversies surrounding her DUI incidents.
According to the details, two acquaintances who checked the post urgently visited Kim Sae-ron's home in Seongdong-gu, Seoul, just about 10 minutes after the initial post was published. Although the situation concluded as a mere incident, it has since deepened the sense of loss following Kim Sae-ron's final departure from the world.
According to the reports, Kim Sae-ron was borrowing approximately 100 million won each from two members of an idol group and two singers in the entertainment industry to sustain her living. She is also reported to have borrowed about 60 million won from her agency.
Meanwhile, Kim Sae-ron's family claims through the YouTube channel Garosero Research Institute that Kim had been in a romantic relationship with actor Kim Soo-hyun for about six years since she was a minor. They also asserted that Gold Medalist, the agency founded by Kim Soo-hyun, pressured them for damages by sending a certificate of contents during the late actress's lifetime.
However, both Kim Soo-hyun and Gold Medalist acknowledged that while they were former romantic partners, they dated for about a year after Kim became an adult and the certificate of contents was sufficiently explained to the late actress as part of the legal procedures due to the damage costs from her DUI controversy. Consequently, both Kim Soo-hyun and Gold Medalist have filed a lawsuit against Garosero Research Institute for defamation stemming from false information.
Among these, Kim Sae-ron's last work before her death, the movie "The Man from Nowhere," is set to be released on the 30th. However, even after the late actress's passing, concerns over grooming crime allegations arose, and scenes where Kim Sae-ron states, "What’s wrong with liking an older man?" have appeared in preview screenings, drawing criticism from critics.
