The scandal involving Kim Sae Ron and Kim Soo Hyun continues to grow more complicated. In the wake of the actress’s tragic passing, allegations against Kim Soo Hyun, dubbed the ‘Queen of Tears’ actor, are piling up. Following claims that Sae Ron was secretly married to an American businessman and pregnant, her ex-boyfriend has come forward with disturbing allegations. He asserts that Sae Ron’s husband (formerly her boyfriend) was both abusive and controlling, and importantly, maintains that Soo Hyun is not connected to her death.

### Context Recap
According to an aunt of the late actress, Kim Soo Hyun was in a relationship with Sae Ron for six years, starting when Sae Ron was only 15 and Soo Hyun was 27. The aunt has accused Soo Hyun and his agency, GOLD MEDALIST, of financial misconduct and failing to support Sae Ron during her DUI scandal in 2022. While Soo Hyun’s agency has issued detailed statements and provided evidence refuting these claims, the controversy continues to escalate.

### Insights from Kim Sae Ron’s Ex-Boyfriend
In an interview with THE FACT, Sae Ron’s ex-boyfriend shared insights about her last days. He claims that Sae Ron got married in early 2025 after meeting her husband in November 2024, but their relationship was fraught with difficulties due to physical and verbal abuse from her husband. He describes himself as Sae Ron’s main source of comfort during this troubling time, which reportedly fueled her husband’s anger.

### Allegations against Sae Ron’s Husband
The ex-boyfriend has publicly accused Sae Ron’s husband of perpetrating the abuse. He even shared their text message exchanges, which highlighted her husband’s nationality and abusive tendencies. In one particularly alarming message, the husband threatened the ex-boyfriend, stating, “This is Sae Ron’s boyfriend. Stop contacting her now, or there will be consequences.”

Recently, YouTuber Lee Jin Ho disclosed a voice recording featuring a conversation between Kim Sae Ron and a representative from her agency, referred to as “Person A.” In this call, Sae Ron discussed a wedding post that had been deleted and clarified that she did not upload the wedding pictures herself—indicating instead that her boyfriend had taken that action. The agency representative expressed confusion over the wedding, questioning how she could have married someone he hadn’t met. Sae Ron responded, admitting to a brief breakup with her boyfriend, a pregnancy, and a subsequent marriage under duress.

### A Message from Kim Sae Ron to Her Ex-Boyfriend
The ex-boyfriend recounted a message from Sae Ron in which she revealed, “I started seeing him in November. Initially, I couldn’t confide in you during your difficult times. I felt so alone and needed someone to listen and help, but that support turned temporary. He eventually leaked my messages and photos, hacked my Instagram, and was violent and verbally abusive. I was terrified, which is why I stayed with him despite wanting to leave.”

Additionally, he suggested that Sae Ron’s family did not take her mental, emotional, and physical challenges seriously, which contributed to her struggles.

### Denial of Kim Soo Hyun’s Involvement in Sae Ron’s Death
The late actress’s ex-boyfriend vehemently denied any claims implicating Kim Soo Hyun in her death, expressing disbelief that her aunt has suddenly positioned herself as part of the grieving family, attempting to blame Soo Hyun. He questioned why her biological parents haven’t come forward, suggesting their absence indicates a lack of communication and care toward Sae Ron. He also commented on how her recent marriage to an American man further highlights their familial disconnect, culminating in speculation over ulterior motives now that she has passed. Asserting his unfamiliarity with Kim Soo Hyun, he sympathized with the actor, acknowledging the unfair backlash he is facing due to his fame.
