Kim Soo Hyun's agency to address allegations in official statement
As reported by Soompi on Thursday, the agency confirmed that the statement will be issued next week, though a specific date has not been disclosed.
Gold Medalist stated that they intend to set the record straight and counter unfounded rumors with a clear and substantiated position.
'We sincerely apologize for the prolonged concern and appreciate your understanding as we work to prevent further misinformation,' the agency added.
The controversy stems from claims made by YouTube channel HoverLab Inc., which alleged that Kim Soo Hyun harassed the late actress Kim Sae Ron.
Gold Medalist has denied accusations that both the agency and Kim Soo Hyun conspired with YouTuber Lee Jin Ho to harass Kim Sae Ron, dismissing them as 'completely false and baseless.'
'The allegations suggest that Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Sae Ron were in a romantic relationship starting when she was 15 years old, that our agency mishandled the fallout of Kim Sae Ron's DUI case, and that a manager from our company had close ties with YouTuber Lee Jin Ho,' the agency stated.
Gold Medalist condemned these claims as 'malicious' and 'entirely fabricated,' adding that they are considering legal action against HoverLab Inc. for spreading misinformation.
The agency had previously denied dating rumors in 2024 after Kim Sae Ron shared an old photo of herself with Kim Soo Hyun on Instagram Stories.
Kim Soo Hyun is widely recognized for his roles in Queen of Tears , It's Okay to Not Be Okay , and My Love from the Star.

Sharlene San Pedro speaks out as BINI faces online criticism over snack tasting video
Actress Sharlene San Pedro has stepped up to defend P-pop girl group BINI amid a growing online backlash following their recent appearance on a foreign food vlog. The group was featured on the YouTube channel People vs. Food on July 8, where the eight members tasted and rated various Filipino snacks, including kwek-kwek, hopia, isaw, balut, and betamax. While the vlog aimed to showcase Filipino delicacies, some viewers took issue with the girls' reactions, especially toward betamax and accused them of showing 'disgust.' San Pedro, who is a close friend of BINI member Gwen, urged netizens to withhold judgment until they have watched the full video. She criticized how spliced clips fueled negativity online. 'Tsaka hello, 'di talaga lahat ng Pinoy ay trip ang lahat ng Filipino food. Panay ride niyo sa hate train kasi relevant 'yung subject,' San Pedro pointed out. At this time, BINI has not responded publicly to the controversy.
